The #1 must-do activity if you're visiting Puerto Vallarta. This was the most fantastic day because you get to see where all the clear, turquoise-blue water is! We met our guides at 9:30am who helped us on the bus to Boca. We then started our hike along the coast, stopping at a total of 6 beaches along the way - we stopped to swim, snorkel, snack and buy fresh fruit, coconuts (or beer if you want)! We had a lovely small group so it felt like a true nature hike, & our guides were fantastic at leading the way, telling us interesting stories along the way and took great photos for everyone in the group. The hike can be challenging in some places, but there were children and some elderly folk in our group, so really anyone can do it, just take your time and enjoy!
This tour is part-hosted, so there are times when the tour guide will talk to you and tell you tidbits and facts about Dublin, and times they will leave you to chat with the person you brought with you. Having been on a lot of these myself, they have the balance of the above just right, in my opinion. The 'Afternoon Tea' version of the vintage bus is the most well-known, but in the last two years they have offered a festive 'Twinkly Lights' version, where they drive around to the most festive Christmas lights displays in the capital, and, more recently, a comedy stand-up version hosted by a Dublin comedian, so they have something for everyone. While the ticket might seem on the pricier side for a bus tour, it includes a pretty lavish spread, freshly baked scones, unlimited tea, coffee and drinks AND each person gets a 'vintage tea bus'-branded reusable coffee mug to take home, so the ticket is excellent value. 10/10 would recommend! 🩵
