“The experience over all was good. The tour guide and helper were great. They did a good job through the day guiding us through the town and mountains. They need to do a better job communicating. They did not contact us prior to the trip even though I reached out. They or Viator have not updated their address and we almost missed the tour because the meeting place address was wrong. They moved in July 2025 and are a few blocks away. So confirm the location. If we didn’t ask someone locally where it was we would have missed it and almost did. We caught the group by chance leaving…”

Just a heads up, though: these are E-bikes, but don’t get too cozy – you’ll need to handle some technical trails. 🤪 The highlight? Stopping at this beautiful little spot for a swim. The food…”

“Amazing day with Juan and the wife. We had a personal tour and got to see and do so much. It was our first trip to PVR and the town is quite safe. So many foreign visitors walking freely through the streets and I was amazed at how friendly and comfortable I felt. Juan took us to visit multiple places, ascended the old light house, rode on the Malecon boardwalk, and watched pelicans dive for fish at the pier. Seriously worth every penny.
