Delicious Tacos and a Thoughtful, Fun Tour - We had a fantastic experience on this street taco tour. Alberto was knowledgeable, easygoing, and clearly passionate about his neighborhood and the food. He shared great local history—like the origins of the town and how smoked marlin became a regional specialty—which really added to the experience. The tacos were all delicious, and it was clear he had strong connections with the vendors. They were happy to see him, and we felt welcomed at each stop. Despite the heat, he made sure we stayed comfortable and helped us cool off along the way. As someone with celiac, I really appreciated how attentive he was to my dietary needs. He took care to check ingredients. I didn’t get sick and was able to fully enjoy the tour. Overall, this was more than just a food tour—it was a great way to connect with the local culture through food, stories, and good company. Highly recommend.

Our 2nd time doing this awesome Taco tour! - We did this tour for our 2nd time with Vallarta Eats the day after we arrived, which is the best time to go. Why? Because not only is the food amazing but you have an amazing guide that gives you a great lay of the land and history of this amazing city, which is now the #2 food destination in MX behind Mexico City. Though mostly unique tacos, there's stops that are not tacos but equally unique to PV. Our guide was Karla, a spunky host with an amazing vibe and so much positive energy, you simply want to hang out with her your entire vacation! Karla also let us peruse a local vegetable stand and walked us through finding the perfect mangoes and plantains, which we took back to our B&B to cook. Come hungry, as in eat light the night before and skip breakfast (if doing the morning tour) because it is filling! Walking the city is a great way to digest as you go too. We highly recommend this tour with Vallarta Eats, as a matter of fact, all their tours are awesome.... we booked the Tasting Vallarta tour the next night as a date night without our kids and it was SPECTACULAR!

Feel like a local celebrity! - Karla was a phenomenal guide! She is extremely knowledgeable about not only the food and the area, but the history of the people. We felt like we were on tour with a celebrity - and what better way to experience the local community than with someone that everyone knows and loves?! Karla gave us a true local experience, not just a food tour! If you get a chance a request a guide, ask for Karla! She thinks of everything! It was a VERY hot day for us and she even thought to bring frozen towels to help cool us down. She went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our day.

Taco Tour Triumph - Alberto was just awesome. His passion about authentic food from the area was contagious. We learned so much even though we are from San Diego. Ahh the tortillas and tacos. Burrilla, who knew?! Highly recommend this tour. Make sure you arrive hungry. We’d skip having breakfast.

The absolute best Puerto Vallarta food/culture experience - The food was amazing, the cultural experience was top notch, and the tour guide was fantastic. I highly recommend this food tour for a genuine experience of local culture. 5/5 isn't enough, this was 10/5. Make sure to show up with an empty stomach, they feed you very well!!!

Great start to Puerto Vallarta trip - We went on this tour on our first full day in Puerto Vallarta and that was an excellent plan. We found so many places in the old town that we went back to. The 3 hour tour has so much food that we left stuffed. We tried 5 different tacos and learned so much about the taco culture and what is considered breakfast vs dinner tacos. It was a “breakfast” tour, but the tacos were mostly what I, as an American, would consider lunch or dinner tacos. Only one had eggs. The rest were all different types of meat. We even had the option to try Chanfayna, beef liver, heart and lung in a birria sauce. We also tried fresh made tortillas, agua fresca, ice cream and some candy samples, and took some fresh bakery with us. Our tour guide took lots of pictures that were sent to us after the tour and showed me how to mark the stands we liked the best on my Google maps so we could come back. I am one of those people who dislike the taste of cilantro, and our guide made sure to ask for my tacos without it. She also pointed out the different sauces and told us about the heat level of each one. Everything was so good! I highly recommend this tour. Just come hungry and in good walking shoes.

Must do - The tour was nothing short of an amazing experience. Getting to see the life of the people of puerto Vallarta and getting to taste the delicious foods is a must. The tour was guided by an energetic and interactive woman named Karla. She truly made the experience so much better through her exciting and captivating personality. The whole family had a great time on the tour!

A must do tour - taco culture and so much more! - Perfect way to enjoy the wide variety of taco styles but also food culture and way of life in PV. The tour has something for everyone but especially foodies. Def don’t eat before you go and get the earliest time slot available. Berto was the perfect guide born and raised in PV and bilingual with so much knowledge about the food, people and history.

Don't go hungry - We enjoyed our tour, but our guide this time was not as helpful as people we've had in the past we were looking for a few things and he really didn't talk to all of us so some of us would miss if he was saying something.
