My wife and I have been to PV over 30 times and we are enamored with this amazing city. I have watched hundreds of PV videos and your video is a very well done. It showcases many of the wonderful things to do there. Great job!
As a Mexican living in the US and thankful for the opportunities received here I get happy seeing videos such as this one here. I'm glad people are enjoying my country as much as I do 😊
I have a boat tourism business here for private group tours (Boca Boat Tours), and agree with many of your choices. There is much more to the southern shores than Yelapa. There are Boca de Tomatlan, Las Animas, Quimixto, Majahuitas, Los Arcos, waterfalls, horseback riding, and more. The area offers so much beauty, fun, and life-long memories!
This is an amazing video of my favorite place in the world. You gave viewers a chance to see how truly magical a place it is and it is filled with lots of things to do. Plus, beautifully filmed.
As a full time resident of Bucerias since 2019 I want to complement you on both the quality of this content as well as the fantastic job of editing it. Keep up this incredible work!
This was a lovely video Aly, thank you! You've certainly given me plenty of ideas for things to do. I esp like the day trips, and the shaded market w kitty gang 😸
Wife and I love Bucerias and Punta de Mita areas and have been visiting there for about 13 years… We usually stay at Grand Palladium Vallarta as it’s located on one of the areas best surf breaks, Punta Burros. Be well, 😎🤙
I watched your video and got me interested in visiting Puerto Vallarta. I booked a room at Rivera del Rio. I loved your videos and I really look forward to your future travels.
This is my favorite place to live. Been down here in Mexico for 18 years now and 7 of those were in Vallarta. Going back in 19 days for a vacation at Hotel Mio Vallarta. Everybody who comes to Mexico must go to PV for a real Mexican vacation or a great place to live. Soy loco por tacos de birreria.
@@alysmalls My first time there. checking in 17 - 22. I will post a video of there a few days after... Did you see my video from here In Tepotzotlan of the day of the dead?
just subscribed , this girls voice is really relaxing and the video's are good . thanks for showing some stuff on the path and off the beaten path to , very well done
Next time you are here, look us up Aly! You can find our blue cards and stickers all over Vallarta centro these days, and at the tourist stands on the Malecon (www too). We offer free help in english from a local number while in Vallarta. We would love to hang with you and show you a bunch of new things to do here and people you should get to know. love the video girl!
Fun facts: The sleepy fishing village of Puerto Vallarta rapidly became an American tourist vacation hot-spot after the media hype that Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor were secretly having an affair while Burton was there filming "The Night of the Iguana". (Pretty cool movie for black and white) Burton was married to another famous star at the time! Also, in 1995 a large earthquake hit PV and toppled the crown off of the famous church in town. Rumor has it that Ms. Taylor paid to have it rebuilt and the cross at the top is made of designer crystal.. Parts of "Predator" were also filmed there and a restaurant with cliff divers is dedicated to celebrating that fact at Mismaloya. (South of the city in the jungle) The Barcelo hotel in Mismaloya was formerly called the "la Jolla de Mismaloya" and after researching it's meaning I was delighted to learn that it literally means "The caves where they catch fish with the hands" referencing "los Arcos" (Another popular attraction south of the city)
Very nice video, full of important info and beautiful scenery and PV culture. Perhaps you'll consider including USD cost when mentioning the entertainment options. 🤩
Aly thank you for these amazing videos we are planning on going this summer ☀️.. with my family. Any recommendations on beach front hotel? In the zona romantic.?
Hi Aly, I am from Ontario Canada and we are thinking of vacationing there. Love your video it was very informative. Maybe you can include any price details in Mexican and US dollars (i.e. food, hotels and excursions) Keep up the great work.
Hey there! Thanks for watching - I have a new video coming out soon which will be a first timer's guide to Puerto Vallarta, where I cover how much things cost. Stay tuned :)
How do retirees and expats move there full-time in the extremely hot summer months? Can older people who can't do alot of climbing and walking find things to enjoy in that Zona Romantica area described so beautifully in the video? Do you pay in pesos at that beautiful island market in the river?
Find a good coffee spot, go for birria tacos if you didn't eat breakfast on the ship, hike to Mirador Cerro de la Cruz for an awesome view, walk along the malecon to the rio cuale market, do some shopping there, make your way into the romantic zone for an early happy hour drink (I like Arriba) and try some street tacos
*Great video. A lot of the Other videos are dull. Yours has good ideas of places to visit & things to do. Just my vibe & taste! What is the name of the Hot Springs place??*
I'll be out there in Nov! Would you say the water/beaches in PVR are clean? We'll be in Sayulita and I hear the main beach is quite dirty! Any beaches you would highly recommend for swimming?
I’m going with my husband to Puerto Vallarta as our honey moon 🥹❤️ and we are looking for a tequila distillery. What’s the name of that distillery you went? (I hope you see my comment, or if someone knows it would be amazing, thank you)
Beautiful and informative. If I might be staying at Riu Vallarta all inclusive resort,how do I get to all these lovely areas? Do I take a taxi or bus? I never been to PV, unsure if I can manage flying there and getting Air BnB instead of the flight and all inclusive resort.
3 times per year. I like both equally for different reasons. We usually start in Bucerias for some chill beach & pool time, and then end in PV for a livelier atmosphere
Aly, great video. We are going to PV for the first time in 4 weeks. Where is the taco stand you are at that is at 2:46? Because you mentioned the names of the next two I was able to find them on a map.
Hi Grant, it's at the corner of the 200 highway southbound and Francisco Madero - all the details are in my blog post here, which outlines my 12 favorite taco spots: likewhereyouregoing.com/best-tacos-in-puerto-vallarta/ enjoy your trip!
@@alysmalls Your linked blog post is incredible! You have given me lots to read. Even though my degree is in geography and I taught geography for 33 years I'm doubting my ability to read a map as I'm not finding the corner. I found Fco Medero but it is nowhere near 200. I found an Oxxo near Fco Medina - it that it? If not can you give me a place nearby that I can find on Google maps? Thanks
Hi Aly, I'm thinking of going to the Grand Palladium (I watched your video), I'm on my own so do you think it would be safe and also are there lots of things to do in close proximity to the hotel? Would really appreciate your advice. Thanks, Kathi
about 1.5 hours north - Nuevo Ixtlan on google maps. Here's the full video about them: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tEiaDF_uA_c.html
