My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed this walking tour in Puerto Vallarta's OId Town . Our guide, Memo, shared much of PV's history, culture, and most important, great tips on where to eat like the locals!
Had an amazing Taco Tour with Mémo. Great explanation as to what to expect on the tour. We visited four locations and got to experience four types of tacos plus ice cream at the end. Highly recommend this tour and ,in particular, Memo as your guide.
We have taken walking tours in many places around the world and we've never thought of taking one in Puerto Vallarta. I wish we had met Memo and engaged his company, vallarta101.com long ago. He's lived here for 14 years, knows all of the restaurant owners by first name. He is very familiar with the dishes and the ingredients. He also frequents these restaurants in his off time, buys food, and sometimes takes it home. He lives within a few blocks of the food tour stops so we were in his hood. We enjoyed how he started us off at a sidewalk shop with fresh grilled marlin, then moved to fresh oysters on the beach (delicious), then cerviche tostada sitting down in a restaurant, then more seafood tostadas sitting down in another restaurant and then closed it out at a family owned ice cream shop where they had ice cream, gelato, sorbet and different kinds of popsicles. We did the "seafood tour" and while we ate sparingly at each place, we were full by the time it ended 2.5 hours later. I'm 240 lbs and have a good appetite so that tells you there was ample food. We paid the cost of the food as we moved from place to place. Memo specializes in great food at very reasonable prices; cerviche tostadas for 20 pesos etc. our total cost for food and non-alcoholic drinks was about 500 pesos ($50 USD) for me and my wife. We tipped Memo generously for his great tour but also because it wound up costing so little. One more thing. We now know 4 good places to eat that are family owned and that have been around for decades. But Memo shared his other favorite items on the menus which we are eager to go back and try. So if you are here for a week or more, take Memo's tour early so you have time to go back on other days to enjoy more fine food for low, low prices. We give Memo and his company Vallarta 101 the highest marks. Nelson and Jocelyn, San Francisco, CA
