Our tour guide, Eric, was excellent! He was very knowledgeable about Nuevo Nayarit, and the stop at the fruit stand for jackfruit and other goodies was wonderful! I would have liked more time in San Pancho, but really enjoyed our 3 hours in Sayulita!

This tour was excellent. We couldn’t have asked for better service. Our guide, Eric was informative and very personable. He explained all the different sights and also let us explore on our own. Would highly recommend this experience to everyone who wants a fun day.

Alex and Carlos were great. I was happy to be picked up from my resort at The grand Mayan. We picked up 2 other groups and made our way to San Pancho. We stopped at a fruit and candy stand on the way. We tried many fruit, candies and were able to use the bathroom. It’s an easy way to spend a few pesos and support locals. San pancho also had bathrooms and I walked along the beach. Then we traveled to Sayulita which is a MUST when in PVR. We had time to explore and Don Pedro’s was our meeting point. I walked everywhere, but you had plenty of time to rent a surf board or play in the water. Great food and many shopping stores! I walked a bit away from the beach and got some good deals on swim wear. I can’t wait to come back to Sayulita
