Tours & Guided Tours in Puerto Vallarta

176 tours in Puerto Vallarta, from €20 to €688 per person, average rating 4.9 based on 54792 reviews.

We read every listing for the 176 tours of Puerto Vallarta on this page, checked what each option includes and kept only tours rated 4.5★ or higher. Prices run from €20 per person for shared city sightseeing to €688 for an island trip with snorkeling and a surf lesson. Several excursions in Puerto Vallarta pair a boat ride with snorkeling gear, so you can explore Los Arcos without bringing your own kit.

A quick way to choose: a lower ATV fare can mean sharing the vehicle; some Marietas trips charge extra for Hidden Beach even when it appears in the title; transport on several mountain trips starts at a meeting point, so check whether hotel pickup is included. The best reviewed tours in Puerto Vallarta come first below.

Viator lists 930 tours for Puerto Vallarta. We screened all of them and kept 176: rated 4.5★ or higher by 30+ travellers, real tours only, each one read and summarised by Guidekin.
