What a FUN experience today. We had a tour with Carla and she was incredible. Friendly, knowledgeable, and funny too! We did the taco tour (5PM) that was really a great look into the food and history of the area. Every taco was delicious and had a good story. We learned about the origins of the food and more. I highly recommend this tour if you want to eat your way through town. Warning: come HUNGRY! Everything is delicious and even with a totally empty stomach you’ll leave very full and very content.
Vallarta Breakfast Taco Tour with guide Star was awesome. We had a party of 6 and were the only ones on the tour. They keep the tours small. Star takes you to authentic taco stands run by local families. The food was absolutely delicious. Star would give us the background of the families as well as the preparation of the foods we ate. I promise you will not go away hungry. Thank you Star for a wonderful experience.
Star was absolutely magnificent. She clearly has a positive relationship with the people at each of the restaurants that we went to, and EVERYTHING we ate was absolutely delicious! It was important for us to experience tasty food that the LOCALS like to eat, since that would clearly be the best and most authentic food. I would not consider myself a foodie, but/so I typically am a bit hesitant at trying new/unfamiliar foods. Star earned my trust quickly, and I knew I was totally safe eating everything she presented. What I loved the most, though, was how much she taught us along the way!! Not just about food, but about the culture and history of the people and how it relates directly to the food they love to make and eat. I cannot rate this experience highly enough to do it justice. There is nothing about it I would want to change or wish had been slightly better. This delivered in every possible way.
This tour was one of the major highlights of our trip. I HIGHLY recommend this for anyone that wants to take a step back from the highly populated tourist attractions and actually see where the locals go. It's also a bonus that their group sizes are very small. Karla did a fantastic job keeping us interested and excited about what she was showing us. She was extremely friendly, very knowledgeable and we really enjoyed her. We will definitely book the tour again, if we go back to PVR. Supporting a locally, woman owned business, while learning the culture and experiencing where the locals go, felt really good. And, we left super stuffed! Go hungry!
