    Waste of time.

    The trip started out late because there was a mix-up on reservations with another group so we got off late. The first stop was at a chocolate making store and them mall. Maybe -15 minutes tops. We left there. Went to two shops which I do not think it should be part of the city tour and if we were to shop we should have an hour time to do what we want. Then we went to a little place for a sample of coffee and and then another for a sample of tequila. Coffee show the process of how it was made, but the tequila no. The place where the tequila was offered also had the restaurant which you were only have one choice to pick food. I was solo and it was 800 pesos and a lot of food for one person and they did not offer any options for single people. It was a long trip and I was expecting to see more of the city and not go so far out of the way to taste tequila and coffee, which I'm pretty sure it's all over Puerto Vallarta I was not happy. Six hours, not including waiting in the morning.

    It's a hike from the ship...

    It's a hike from the ship to the meeting point if you have elderly or handicaps. The tour was awesome great staff very friendly. I would recommend this group for a fun filled day in the sun.

    Transportation switch

    This tour was not as promoted. We were told transport would be a comfortable van and the hotel pick up was in a nice van but we were switched at the port into an uncomfortable large bus with dirty windows that rattled so much we thought they would fly out any minute. The driver had trouble with the gears and shifting giving us a lurching ride, which was very far out of PV, onto a dusty single track road. While the tequila was good, we didn’t see any type of production or agave farm, just went right to the tasting. IMO, it was just a way to get us to a location with only one food option which was overpriced, not hot when served and not well prepared. The coffee factory was a collection of small shops, one selling coffee. It was a long, uncomfortable day that would have been better spent at the resort. Better to skip it.

    Great service

    Well organized tour with good communication. The tour guide knew how to avoid crowds, traffic and max our touring time. The van was clean, comfortable and roomy. We had great time at the Tequila tasting with NO pressure on shopping. He allowed us to go more sightseeing, photos instead of shopping. Thank you for his outstanding service.

    Ramone..Best Tour Guide ever!

    Ramone was our tour guide. He went above and beyond to ensure our needs were met. He allowed us to customize our tour to include the Taquilla Factory, Coffee Factory, lunch, tattoos for my nephews, shopping at the boardwalk and drove us back to the Cruise Ship Terminal. He was informative in geography and historical points of interest. Our entire family really enjoyed his company. We highly recommend Ramone!!

    Private City Highlight Tour with Tequila Tasting: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Private City Highlight Tour with Tequila Tasting cost?

    +

    Prices start at $331 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 Private City Highlight Tour with Tequila Tasting 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 Private City Highlight Tour with Tequila Tasting worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 44 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.6/5 across 12 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 Private City Highlight Tour with Tequila Tasting?

    +

    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 Private City Highlight Tour with Tequila Tasting 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 Private City Highlight Tour with Tequila Tasting?

    +

    Around 4 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 Private City Highlight Tour with Tequila Tasting 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, Signature Taco Tour in PV with Vallarta Eats, Food & Mixology Tour:Tequila,Tacos, Mezcal and Agave Cocktails. 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.
