Must do! Mex-ology Tour: Puerto Vallarta

If I have one major recommendation for you when you visit Puerto Vallarta, it’s to book a Mex-ology tour with Vallarta Food Tours. Not only will it make you fall more in love with the city itself by learning about its history as you stroll up and down it’s streets, but you get to step off the beaten path and eat and drink your way through charming and dynamic Zona Romantica.

Puerto Vallarta is a food lovers paradise, deliciously set up in an almost movie worthy setting against a backdrop of bright bougainvillea and stone streets.

It’s vibrant, it’s alive, and DAMN…it’s delicious!

I ate my way through ridiculous Al pastor, devoured one of the best Tortas I’ve ever had, and even nibbled on fresh churros from THE Churro Guy. And food was just only one part of the tour! With almost everything we ate, we also drank a cocktail to

match its profile, whether it was a creative hibiscus and mezcal cocktail to go with grilled shrimp tacos, Raicilla (Mezcals sassy cousin from Jalisco) to sip alongside killer Al Pastor, or a lovely smoky Mezcal to shoot with crickets (yes, crickets! And while you may go what the?! It really wasn’t bad!).

I’ve eaten and imbibed in quite a few cocktails in my 47 years and I will say that this experience is one not to be missed. Book Vallarta Food Tours next time you’re in PV (and try to get Sylvia, if you can)!

Cost: $79 per person

Experience: 5 food tastings, 6 cocktails
