Perfect customizable tour - Phillip and his 2 man crew were awesome. We booked him direct while we were on our Norwegian cruise in Puerto Vallarta. He arranged a private van to pick the 14 of us near the pier to get to his very clean and nice yacht.
They had all sorts of snacks, croissants, breads, fresh fruit, cocktails, beer, water plus chips and guacamole. We got to see whales on our way to the beach where we had lunch.
The entire crew was very professional and attended to all of our needs which included refilling our drinks whenever we needed or didn't know we needed them :-).
Our 5-year-old twins had a great time and were totally safe Plus they enjoyed their virgin pina coladas.
Philip was very conscientious about the time we needed to get back to the port so we had zero issues worrying about not getting back in time and missing the ship.
We highly recommend and will definitely book again the next time we go back to Puerto Vallarta.

Fun Filled Day - It was THE most fabulous time on my vacation!! Puerto Vallarta Yacht Charter Rentals catered to every need we wanted. The attentive crew made sure we had plenty of food and drinks, the captain slowed down and let us watch the whales as long as we wanted and the boat was luxurious. When we went snorkeling the flippers fit better than any other snorkeling experience I have ever had! Plus we saw many colorful fish! The time we spent in Yelapa was a fun-filled day, hiking up to the waterfall, having a delicious fresh mango margarita and having an iguana put on my stomach! We would highly recommend this company to anyone!

BEST DAY EVER - Yesterday's trip to Yelapa was so great aboard "Escandalo ", Vallarta Yacht Rentals. We did some snorkeling (my grandson did scuba with Master diver, Charlie, last week). We were served excellent drinks and delicious snacks by the very attentive crew. Everytime I have been aboard "Escandalo ", we have been fortunate to spot whales. Yesterday, did not disappoint, we encountered whales and dolphins. Truely, a wonderful day.

A beautiful day together, shared with dear and new friends, memorable! - Our entire experience was outstanding! Every aspect of our day long adventure was splendid. We leisurely journeyed to Los Arcos for snorkeling and then on to Yelapa for a fantastic lunch. and some relaxing beach time. Our day was filled with the warm sun, the gorgeous ocean waters, a scenic coast line, and panoramic views that were spectacular the entire sailing day. Phil and his team were warm, friendly and professional hosts. We will always appreciate Phil's immaculately maintained and comfortable yacht, and the special touches that his team gave us. We extend our gratitude to Captain Carlos, Victor, and Phil for a stellar experience. We were in PV celebrating our 1 year wedding anniversary and were so blessed to have this experience. We loved our sailing excursion and also enjoyed a breathtaking sunset (and moonrise) at the end of our our sailing journey. We highly recommend! Rick & Jean

It was an amazing adventure from the moment we came aboard until the moment we departed. - This was my first time onboard Escandalo in 2023, it was so good to be back. This trip to Yelapa, with a couple stops along the way and it was diffidently a memory maker. The weather was great as we came aboard at 10:00. Captain Carlos and Victor were very attentive to our needs,
We had 12 onboard and there was room for more. Many picked the great cushioned seats up forward as it provided a great spot to watch all the activities on the beach as we headed south. Pastries, fruit and drinks of your choice were provided..
We made a stop at Los Arcos for photos. Captain Carlos kept the boat in position as the cameras snapped away. We made one more stop so people could snorkel and view the fish.
Then we were off to Yelapa. We arrived and hooked to a bouy for the day. A small boat picked us up and took us to shore. We spent an amazing day ashore and enjoyed the great food and drink.
Our cruise back was spectacular, and we not only watch a beautiful sunset, we also watch a full moon rise. Back at the dock we all gathered up our gear and said our goodbyes.
If you come to Puerto Vallarta, be sure to spend a day or evening sunset cruise aboard Escandalo, you will not be disappointed.

PV to Yelapa - Philip was very easy and pleasant to communicate with even for our last-minute booking. Payment was super-easy, and Philip helped cut through the somewhat confusing booking process in the area.
Our day was stunning with perfect weather. We saw whales, dolphins, and rays. We booked a larger 55' boat, "Ruby". The boat was very comfortable, and the food was excellent. Captain Oscar led a very helpful crew.
Wonderful experience!
