Then, took off for an amazing sailing adventure with fresh chips and guacamole and had amazing freshly made drinks. I will definitely come back for a second adventure!”

2.Private Marietas Snorkeling Tour – Hidden Beach Access Guaranteed

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 82 reviews · 4 hours (approx.)

Review of Puerto Vallarta’s private Marietas snorkeling tour, including Hidden Beach access, costs, swimming demands, food, timing, and booking tips.

“My family most enjoyed the adventure into the Hidden Beach. If you stay calm, breast stroke in, and follow your guides instructions you will be fine. It only takes seconds to clear the lowest point and then your clear as the cave opens up. It helps to have cardio stamina as well. I saw terrified faces as we were exiting and they were entering. Staying calm is key. After, we went snorkeling. Our guide took the time to show us how to properly secure our snorkel gear. It was truly an unforgettable experience.”

4.Private Snorkeling Tour to Los Arcos

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 62 reviews · 3 hours (approx.)

Review of Puerto Vallarta’s private Los Arcos snorkeling tour, with boat views, flexible stops, costs, practical tips, and honest drawbacks.

“This was an exceptional trip for our family of 4. The crew were fantastic. We got to the snorkling spot before all the larger boats/tourists arrived and had a more private experience. After snorkling, we were treated with fresh guac/chips and margaritas (other non-alcohol options also available). The crew pointed out different animal species (above and below water), as well as other sites along the way. Thoroughly enjoyed this trip and highly recommend to anyone looking for a more VIP/private experience away from larger crowds.”
