Amazing tour! Ricardo was a great host, serving drinks, lunch, touring us around Banderas Bay, and keeping everyone smiling. The boat was way nicer than we expected, a 40+ foot sailboat with cabin and bathroom that were very comfortable. The whole package was very affordable with a first class private tour, open bar, and lunch. We had two couples and one teenager and it was great, probably could have comfortably had 2-3 more people.

WOW! If I could, I would give this private cruise 10 stars. We were in PV with our friends (2 couples) and booked this cruise before we left Canada. The sailboat is incredible, the service was truly remarkable, the guacamole, pico de gallo, margaritas were honestly the BEST we ate on our whole trip (stayed at Vidanta). DO let them prepare food and drinks for you - truly incredible. We will absolutely sail with these two again, and again, and again! BEST day! Thank you, thank you Alberto and Ballo!!

The experience was amazing from start to finish. We started at Marina Puerto Vallarta and did a 6 hour tour to the north shore of the Banderas Bay. The staff is super friendly and is there for anything you need, they are also very knowledgeable for any questions about the ocean, the marine life and the area in general.
We stopped in front of a virgin beach and then they provided us with snorkeling equipment and even a paddle board to go from the boat to the beach, there we where able to snorkel, chill and enjoy.
After that we had a selection of 3 different seafood preparations, one more delicious than the the other. On top of that we had the staff making us drinks from start to finish.
Couldn't recommend more, way better than those fancy name big companies out there, this was a real private sailing experience with a focus in sustainability and ocean awareness.

Overall we enjoyed the Trip. Angel was very attentive from the time we met him to the time we left. We were a bit nervous because there was not a lot of info on what was included and what was to do on those 6/7 hours. It did said had N/A beverages but we only were told water was available and nothing else. Also there was not instructions to how to co ta t the service provider to add drinks and food or what will be do e through the trip.
So we just swim fir 15/20 minutes then went to a beach were we only had time to eat and leave. I just wish they would've gave us some more info to pick what to do or who you can contact to find out.

The four of us had a lovely time on the water as we searched for whales and spotted a few in the distance. We convinced the captain to go North (instead of going to Los Arcos) and the snorkeling was not worth it over on that side of the bay. This was not Jorge`s fault, he and Angel did everything possible to make our private sail memorable and enjoyable, and it was. P.S. Angel`s guacamole is FAB!

We had a fantastic time! The crew was so nice and accommodating.. They asked us what we wanted to do and they did it.. We went snorkeling they took us to a fishing village only accessible by boat.. We had a wonderful lunch there fresh fish, And great drinks. It was so nice being on a private tour just us and the crew we had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend it. And I can't forget to mention the wonderful guacamole and pineapple salsa the owner of the boat made on the trip it was delicious.

My husband and I took our daughters 8-16 and my mom. They supplied us with coca-cola, corona light, squirt, and water for drinks. There was a bathroom on board which we needed. The ceviche and guacamole were wonderful! They also served us pineapple, mango, jicama, and cucumbers w Tajín. Everything was delicious. We snorkeled at Los Arcos and swam / paddle boarded near a cove while my youngest built a sand castle on board. The only trouble we had was finding the right dock, but they were very responsive through WhatsApp and lead us to the right location quickly. Highly recommend! It was the highlight of our trip!

Great trip! Our group consisted of 5 adults, just family. We had an amazing crew (Captain Luis, Angel and Israel). They were very attentive and professional. We ordered the calm sea package (just kidding!). The water was very calm during the entire day. We’ve never seen the sea so calm. We sailed to Los Arcos and anchored off a small beach where we enjoyed the water for over a hour without any rush. Once onboard, we relaxed with lunch. The crew prepared an awesome guacamole and excellent sandwiches. They made margaritas so delicious, even better than what we could get at the hotel. The boat was very spacious and clean. We had so much room to chill in the sun. The personal service, amazing food, ample drinks, and great scenery were worth it. Great communications with the company (Anamar) as soon as we booked the trip. We’d do it again in a heartbeat.

We were greeted by a sweet member of the crew Paola Solis and shown aboard.
We then met Gabby and Abram, two more of the crew. They were amazing from the first step on to the last step off!
The sailing was amazing! They even let our 2 year old stear!
We saw whales and got to catch and release a fish too!
The sea was too rocky and unsafe for snorkeling but we went through the arches and took it all in.
We went to an old fishing village turned into a destination with restaurants.
The food, drinks, and service was amazing! Huge portions so don't order too much ;)
***One thing I have to warn anyone about of to get to the village you have to get off the boat on to another smaller boat to taxi us to the shore. It is not...and I repeat not easy to get off and then back on. It was super hard and our older parents had to stay on the sailboat.
The cost for the taxi was 300 pesos round trip.**
The sunset was gorgeous and going back to the Marina Vallarta at night was a beautiful end to a beautiful day.
Great job and great crew! 10 out of 10!

The 4 hour sailboat ride allowed for a peaceful retreat at sea, offering a refreshing break from the usual tourist activities that can be found in Puerto Vallarta. I wanted to make it longer but there was no availability. Oh welll!

Is there plenty of room outside the boat to hang out? It’s hard to tell from the pictures. Also the email I got said usually you can cancel within 24 hours but this says once you book there is no cancellation can you clarify please?

We will be staying at Secrets Bahia Mita Surf & Spa - Would you be able to pick us up from there to go out so we wouldn't have to drive to Puerto Vallarta?
