The tour was 5 stars because of our guide Homero (he was very informative and super sweet), the food stops (delicious for everyone including the 4 vegetarians in our group) and an awesome way to experience to see the city.
The tour lost 1 star from me because of the bikes. I had made my reservation 4 months in advance and provided bike sizing, heights of the riders, etc to make sure everyone got a comfortable bike (as per the tour company). Apparently, they had booked another tour of 8 people to start 30 minutes before we got there and gave them all of the good bikes. We ended up with bikes that were too big or too small, seat posts that didn't adjust properly, bikes that were SOOO old they definitely pulled them out of an old storage somewhere, and even one bike that was totally different because it was rented!

A really fun way to explore Puerto Vallarta and eat some amazing food. Our guide was awesome and gave us lots of info about other things to do in PV. We did this tour toward the end of our trip and it was great, but I recommend doing it earlier in your trip because it’s a great way to become more familiar with the city.

Although this tour starts right at 9:30AM, you will NOT be disappointed and you certainly won't have a problem knocking out the tacos, beer, treats and ice cream on this tour as you earn all of it pedaling around the cobblesone streets of Puerto Vallarta. Our guide Homero was an excellent resource, very kind and knowledgeable about his city, local beers and truly, the best tacos you will find in PV and quite honestly, just about anywhere (specifically the carnitas taco).
If you are on the fence about this tour, I would reccomend anyone that is comfortable on a bike to sign up (although the groups are limited to 8 and we were only a party of 2 when we went), going with a group of family or friends would be quite the experience. I for one look forward to going again with friends upon return to PV.

I did the bikes and bites tour at the end of August and had an amazing time. The guide, Gio, was a great guide. I ended up being the only one booked that day so I was fortunate to get a private tour. Gio was very friendly and informative. He really seemed to be enjoying the day almost as much as I was. It made for a really great morning.
The bike riding is not difficult or technical. It is mostly flat riding. The bikes were in great condition. The streets are cobblestone so the riding in places is quite bumpy. If this isn't something you like I would recommend a walking tour, but it really is not tricky riding.
The food stops were amazing. I loved each one. They were all different but all so tasty. With the bikes you can cover a lot of ground in a short time so we were able to go to stops in quite a few different neighbourhoods. I really can't pick a favourite stop. Lots of the places were ones I wouldn't have stumbled upon on my own but am so happy I know about them now! It was also great having a guide there to let me know which of the salsas were spicy (so no unexpected pain!). The biggest surprise for me was the stop for the tuba drink. This was so refreshing and the taste was very enjoyable. The one we had contained apples and walnuts and was the perfect refreshment about halfway through the tour.
A tip - do not eat breakfast first. I went on an empty stomach and left very full and satisfied.

my boyfriend and i really wanted to try some local favorite spots for tacos, but werent sure where to go. we decided to book this tour due to good ratings, and the fact we could bike to the locations to check out PVR in a different way. it was SO MUCH FUN! and our guide, Gio, was an absolute gem. he was super friendly and very knowledgable. my bf really wanted birria tacos, so Gio went out of his way and made sure we got to try them - and they were the best dang birria tacos we've ever had. you can tell the tour guides with this company really want you to enjoy yourself while also enjoying your time in the city. i would 10000% recommend this tour, and company as a whole. next time we're in town, we're going to try another one of their tours!

We booked the Bikes and Bites tour on our honeymoon. We lucked out and were the only two that booked that day, so we had our own "private tour." Gio was our tour guide and did a great job taking us around town. He gave us a lot of history of the city, as well as taking us to a lot of delicious places to eat. He gave us some options and was flexible with our tour. We really enjoyed our tour, and would highly recommend for anyone who is looking for an active tour around the city and some delicious tacos.

Great use of time and fun way to see Puerto Vallarta.
I'd never ridden an eBike before so that in itself was a fun experience. The streets in PV are cobblestone, and so a regular bike would get old fast. This bike has fat tires and the throttle is helpful on the hills.
We stopped at two shops and three taco stands. I'd never know where to try "good" tacos in PV, esp on the street. Thank you to Alan, our guide, who explained that these specific taco stands were sort of "secret" and known among the locals.
FYI, we did not have any seafood tacos. They were all pork or beef. One stand was particularly interesting because they sold beef tongue and beef cheeks for their tacos. Interesting. You need to be slightly adventurous though, even if you are just trying. I couldn't quite bring myself to eat the beef cheeks, and although I'm not a pork eater, I did try the carnitas. They were good.
The tour ended with a nice little climb to a high point in the city where we could see all of Banderas Bay which was amazing. PV is really beautiful with all the mountains going straight to the sea. Amazing geography.

We had the best time on this tour! I wish we had booked it earlier in our trip since we got so many recommendations from our guide, Homero, that we used for the remainder of our time in PV. Homero was personable, knowledgeable and exceeded any expectations we may have had. We would definitely go again and recommend this tour to anyone going to PV. The food was beyond amazing, and getting to see different parts of the city and non-touristy culture was great.

My wife and I had a super time on this tour! Homero was a great guide and the food stops were excellent! We saw several parts of the city and got lots of insights from our guide who was born and raised in the Romantic Zone . He was articulate and friendly. 4 great taco stops, ice cream, and beer -- what more could you want? I could not recommend this one more.

If I could give this tour a higher score I would. We bought the passes online and the email that was sent was very clear about where to meet, what time, and what stops we would be making. Our guides name was Homero and was so knowledgeable and friendly. We got lucky and were the only two on the tour at the time and got to know him a bit more. He seemed to know everyone!
He showed us small, hole and in the wall places all throughout Puerto Vallarta we would have never gone to if he had not showed us. The tacos were the best we have ever had, and we learned and saw more of the city this way.
Overall, such a great way to start off your trip. Great food, biking, and a great guide to help you along the way. Highly recommend this tour!

We have a group of 12 hoping to do the Puerto Vallarta Bikes and Bites tour on Nov 27. Is it possible to all go together? Also, one of the kids is 12 years old, is he able to participate?
Thank you

Savannah, GA22 contributions
Yes - although it might take a little longer, and I’d book ahead so it will only be you 12 + the guide, or gave two groups + guides. We had six on our tour plus the guide. There is one brewery on the tour so you might ask the operators about your 12 year old and they may be able to modify that one stop. Your whole group will enjoy it!!
Are there vegetarian options for the tacos?
