    You should go ride a horse!

    This was so much fun! I haven’t ridden a horse in 30 years, but I felt very safe and supported, and it was a really good experience. The horses were gentle and healthy — not at all dispirited like you see at some tours. Our guide Saul was wonderful — funny and friendly and really good at taking pics for us! The food was delicious, and the tequila tasting was top-notch.

    great!

    Martin was such a vibe and obviously well trained with the horses! our tequila guy was amazing with the information he provided, you can tell he loves his job. the food was great & learning how to make our own salsa was fun!! thank youuu. now the only i wished was different was maybe spending like 5 minutes with the horse we rode lol i think it’s important to build that relationship.. i do understand that cuts into time but as a horse owner i know that relationship and trust is important.

    great

    Had a good time, thought it was a good deal with the included meal and unlimited margaritas afterwards. Guides and driver made the bus ride to and from the ranch and meal area fun and enjoyable. Would definitely do again.

    Our guide was great, Rafa...

    Our guide was great, Rafa at the ranch was also great. My horse was unruly so he had to “drive” her for me. Vista Dulce was beautiful, very attentive wait staff

    Horseback Riding: Tequila Tasting, BBQ & Margaritas: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Puerto Vallarta.

    How much does Horseback Riding: Tequila Tasting, BBQ & Margaritas cost?

    +

    Prices start at $102 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Puerto Vallarta usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Horseback Riding: Tequila Tasting, BBQ & Margaritas take?

    +

    Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Puerto Vallarta is not rushed.

    Is Horseback Riding: Tequila Tasting, BBQ & Margaritas worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 82 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 287 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Puerto Vallarta, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Horseback Riding: Tequila Tasting, BBQ & Margaritas?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Horseback Riding: Tequila Tasting, BBQ & Margaritas suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Horseback Riding: Tequila Tasting, BBQ & Margaritas?

    +

    Around 100 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Puerto Vallarta can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Puerto Vallarta and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Horseback Riding: Tequila Tasting, BBQ & Margaritas start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Puerto Vallarta within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Puerto Vallarta?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Puerto Vallarta experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Winner 2026 Downtown Vallarta Food Tour with Vallarta Food Tours, Taco Adventure Evening Food Tour with Vallarta Food Tours, Signature Taco Tour in PV with Vallarta Eats. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Puerto Vallarta?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Puerto Vallarta?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Horseback Riding: Tequila Tasting, BBQ & Margaritas?

    +

    Included: Alcoholic beverages; Bottled water; Lunch; and Private transportation. Not included: towels. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Horseback Riding: Tequila Tasting, BBQ & Margaritas?

    +

    The Bus LEAVES at 10:30am NO EXCEPTIONS. The meeting point will be at a BIG MIRROR ON THE WALL located outside NIMA BAY which is across the street from V Marina. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Horseback Riding: Tequila Tasting, BBQ & Margaritas offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Horseback Riding: Tequila Tasting, BBQ & Margaritas?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to Horseback Riding: Tequila Tasting, BBQ & Margaritas if the weather is bad?

    +

    This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.

    What do travelers say about Horseback Riding: Tequila Tasting, BBQ & Margaritas?
