We did the hike to the waterfalls—well the waterfalls were dry because it’s too dry but who cares? The hike was beautiful, our guide, Fein, was so incredibly nice and knowledgeable and personable. Dez was incredibly helpful and answered every question we had (we had a lot).We only did half the hike ending at the first beach of three—time constraints and a bad knee—so at the half way point we took a water taxi to the restaurant. The restaurant was on the beach, the food was plentiful and surprisingly delicious! I had told Dez it was my birthday and the restaurant had a birthday surprise dessert and the wait staff sang Happy Birthday. It was a lovely touch. I can’t say enough good things about Dez and her excursion. It was super!

This is always one of the highlights of my trip and I really missed it last year during COVID. What Elly and her team do through this program is exceptional! They have found ways to stay safe in the pandemic and continue to support their artisan partners. Please review their website and get to know the artisans who soon will be offering their goods through an e-commerce store. The artisans are so hospitable and share their stories so well. They are so willing to answer questions and tell us about their lives and work. It is so special to be able to purchase directly from the person who made it!

Incredible gravel riding in the Nayarit and Jalisco area with Joel and Pepe. Wide-open roads in the mountains with great people, food, and cultural experiences. Great place to get fit and vacation in these challenging times. Highest marks for the VeloGuide team. Also, Jillian is fantastic at coordinating logistics.

I went to San Sebastian. There were 3 of us on the tour, plus the guide and driver. They were very nice and knowledgeable. The town is up in the mountains. There really isn't much there but a small town with cobble stone street and a square. Not much shopping. We had a nice lunch. The nicest thing was seeing the mountain life on the way and stopping at a bakery, tequila maker and a coffee maker. It was very comfortable and a nice day trip to see some different scenery. The tour was run well.

I'm so glad we didn't come and go from beautiful Puerto Vallarta without joining in on this experience. We'd been seeing the fireworks every night from wherever we were on the boardwalk or hotel, and could see the lit up boat throughout it's sail and didn't think much of it. Then we got an opportunity to do it on one of our free nights. Again. So glad we did. The crew had an energy that just drew you in. Their commitment to the character they were in was exceedingly impressive. And the crowd participation was very necessary and very effective as most people there, like me, may not have had all that energy on their own - which is a must to truly enjoy your night. Get in to it. We were fortunate to be a part of the show as my wife was brought up to play along with a couple other ladies during a particular fun segment. That eventually brought their mates up, so up I went too. It was a blast. Perhaps we enjoyed it so much because we were drawn in directly, but still, I got the impression that the whole boat was rocking to the beat of this upbeat (and some beat up but I won't give too much away) crew. I thoroughly enjoyed the show and I also really enjoyed the food. If you're expecting the plate itself to be worth the price of adminssion, you are mistaken. The crew and their well-performed show, while out on a cruise with amazing views is what the price of admission paid for. The food was great nonetheless; but it's an overall package deal that is well worth the price and then some. And by then some i mean: please hook this crew up as best you can. Bring cash and add it to their booty. They will have earned it!
