We have been coming to Puerto Vallarta for several years and have enjoyed some incredible experiences. This time we were interested in finding a tour that would show us the “real” Mexico, not just the local tourist things. When we read about Investours we thought this would be the perfect opportunity to visit with some of the local business owners,... More

We all know that Mexico is a lot more than the touristic Vallarta and its beaches. Investours opens a most interesting and touching window to the reality of so many mexicans. You get to know some aspects of how families struggle to obtain some microcredit to start a small business, to keep it going or to make it a bit... More

I went 1-4-12 as a guest of a dear friend not knowing what to expect; he explained as best he could, but it was sooo much more. I know that entrepreneurs are, by nature,positive thinking, forward looking individuals, but it was truly heartwarming to see & interact with these people from such poor backgrounds - such high enthusiasm & high...

First for you who haven't heard about Investors. Simplified Investours are a non-profit organization who help small local businesses in villages around Puerto Vallarta to get micro-finance loans.

I really had no idea what to expect from the Investours tour and I was pleasantly surprised! I felt comfortable even though I was in a completely different experience that I've never had before.

This tour is really eye-opening, even for Mexicans, and I appreciated that Investours focused on the progress and potential of the businesses we visited, instead of the poverty of the business people. I left feeling really good (and... More

We took the Investours tour yesterday. We've lived in the area for 6 years, but still learned a lot from this tour. It was very informative about lending in Mexico, micro-finance in particular. The 3 entrepreneurs we visited were well prepared and all presented their plans well. All of the entrepreneurs on the tour have already completed one loan successfully... More

This is a unique experience and a great way to meet local people working to improve their family’s lives. We met with 3 entrepreneurs and their families. I learned about the obstacles and high interest rates entrepreneurs in Mexico face. It was well worth taking a couple hours from my vacation and an opportunity to help a family work towards... More

There are many wonderful things to do and see while visiting Puerto Vallarta, but few as memorable as an INVESTOUR. Led by a personable, organized and knowledgable team, this tour takes you through neighborhoods and into locals’ homes you’d rarely have an opportunity to see otherwise. After all, there are a million vacation destinations with beaches, zip-lining and margaritas. But... More
