    Alma was great, dinner fantastic, David our MC on boat 16 was best

    The experience made for a great evening. Ticketing process, easy; seating on the catamaran, easy; booze available, too easy. The crew and music were good; Boat 16 with "David" the MC was super, super fun. The short jungle jaunt to the open-air outdoor theater was easy. The Alma show was incredible and highly entertaining, though we'd gone to Cirque du Soleil a couple of days earlier. The after-show dinner is worth the wait and has delicious food. In a romantic, candlelit, oceanfront jungle setting. The boat ride back to the port with David and his crew was a high point and an unexpected, pleasurable surprise because of their ????? (don't want to spoil the secret). The whole night was a runaway hit! Port fees and $20 per person access fees are extra. Take mosquito spray, a light jacket or umbrella just in case, and if you can afford it, buy the VIP or GOLD package. You won't regret it.

    Excellent show, great food boat rides to the island and back are fun

    This was the second time I've been and was an Amazing experience the crew on the boat take you over provide you all kinds of amazing information a little bit of Comedy and sometimes a show getting off the boat you experienced a walk through the jungle with characters up to the performance platform where you watch an amazing show and after that you eat an amazing dinner with options for everyone. The boat ride back is always a great time!

    May want to pass

    Dress comfortably and with comfortable shoes. It’s a bit of a hike on uneven dirt ground that no one told us about. Super hot and humid which is par for the course in PV, but it felt especially hot with so many people around. The show was good. Food was ok. No way for you to say I’m over it and come back. You’re stuck for hours until the boats arrive again. The best part was Boat 16’s entertainment on the ride back. It was fun and hilarious! It was touted as ancient civilization act but it’s more of an acrobatics and contortionist act. Nothing you haven’t seen on America’s Got Talent.

    10 out of 10!

    As others have said, this is a MUST DO IN PV! We have traveled the world and seen incredible shows and this whole evening ranks as one of the best experiences ever. From beginning to the end the entire crew and production were on their A game. The 45 mins boat ride was fun with drinks really flowing and everyone getting in the mood, the crew took care of you non stop. The island was awesome with all sorts of entertainers, loads of candles setting the mood and the show and all the performers were over the top. The buffest style dinner was scrumptious and plentiful and drinks flowed once again. We opted for the VIP package and we received great price to value. It allows you to board first, get fantastic front section seats and a nice area to dine...spring for it, it's worth it. The ride back was so entertaining with a surprise show from the crew and if you even had room for more drinks - well they didn't disappoint. They gave us umbrellas just in case and thankfully the real rain held off until we left the island. Dress comfortably to walk in the sand and be prepared to be mesmerized. Thank you to all.....

    Puerto Vallarta Rhythms of the Night, Dinner Cruise and Alma Show: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Puerto Vallarta Rhythms of the Night, Dinner Cruise and Alma Show cost?

    +

    Prices start at $119 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 Puerto Vallarta Rhythms of the Night, Dinner Cruise and Alma Show 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 Puerto Vallarta Rhythms of the Night, Dinner Cruise and Alma Show worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 80 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 2,088 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Puerto Vallarta, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Puerto Vallarta Rhythms of the Night, Dinner Cruise and Alma Show?

    +

    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 Puerto Vallarta Rhythms of the Night, Dinner Cruise and Alma Show 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 Puerto Vallarta Rhythms of the Night, Dinner Cruise and Alma Show?

    +

    Around 731 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 Puerto Vallarta Rhythms of the Night, Dinner Cruise and Alma Show 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 Puerto Vallarta Rhythms of the Night, Dinner Cruise and Alma Show?
