We appreciate everything that the community has to offer, and we're looking forward to returning to Los Ayala. If we head to the Toro, we'll definitely be taking a boat this time, LOL Thanks for watching!

Thanks so much! We're so glad you found it to be helpful, we love hearing that our videos are useful to other travelers❤ You're going to love Puerto Vallarta! It's a wonderful city that has a way of capturing the hearts of those who visit. Have a great trip!

The water there is gorgeous

@@aviandv if it just had the sunset of PV it would be perfect

We've had drinks there, once or twice. Great location!

Lol We bet!

Wow, that's amazing! Must have been a really cool experience

Lol! So glad you enjoyed it!

Rincon de Guayabitos is a wonderful little beach town about 1.5 hours north of Puerto Vallarta by car. It's in the state of Nayarit. We love this little town and highly recommend you check it out. Here's a full length video on the area if you want more information. Thanks for watching and we hope you get a chance to make it there! ruclips.net/video/aRFTiYZXFGg/видео.html

It is worth totally it to many people, for sure. We just prefer to pay the extra money for the ease of it all, personally. $10-15 isn't enough of a saving for us to bother dragging our bags up the stairs and across the bridge. Despite what it may look like here, we only travel a few times a year. For us, it's worth some cash to save time and energy when on vacation. Especially when we're tired from flying and just want to be taken to our hotel.

Nice catch. We also added in Puerto Escondido shots, too. It was our subtle way of demonstrating that we've taken taxis in many parts of the beautiful country of Mexico.

No, it's just called Zenith Condominiums.

Thanks! We're working on it!

Thanks so much! We really appreciate hearing that, especially from someone who makes beautiful, inspiring videos, themselves. We subscribed!

Yeah, it's been really crowded, especially at departures, this last week. Hopefully, when the new terminal is operational, it'll get better.

Happy New Year to you too! We're glad you enjoyed the video!

Lol... maybe a little of both! We loved Yelapa, but both of us liked Quimixto a little bit more. It's a really cool little town, you'd love it!

@aviandv looking forward to seeing it with our own eyes some day.

Yelapa is great but Quimixto was a little cooler, to us. It feels a little less touristy, a little more authentic and we liked the waterfall and river a lot better.

We're so glad you enjoy them! Quimixto it's a great little town. One advantage of going during the rainy season is that everything is so green that time of year!

Sounds good! Thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks so much. We bet you're going to enjoy being back in Vallarta!

@@aviandvyes, it’s been a long time.

Thanks 4 commenting, but you missed the entire point of the video. Our modest goal is to educate others and not exculpate ourselves. If you watched the video then you would have seen us take responsibility for our slight ignorance and that we hoped others would NOT make the same mistake we made (which is the reason why we chose to make the video), thereby helping to conserve the specialness of the location where this happened. Focusing on our accidental mistake while also saying that the "gentleman's" threats of violence and intimidation tactics were "maybe not the best way to go about it," Is kind of a backwards way of looking at things, no? My wife and I are worth at least as much respect as a wall, and this violent and possibly drug fueled individual didn't seem to understand that basic social equation. Hawaii itself could, and maybe it already has since we were there, do just a little work by placing signs near sites that deserve respect. They are ultimately responsible for the maintenance of their own cultural heritage and the education of future tourists, far more than any single tourist should be. This is something that cultures around the world already do, and Hawaii should join the 21st century in that regard. We always try to do as much research as we can and be as respectful of any place we go to where we travel in the world and will continue to do so in the future.

Honestly, it's not something you really have to worry about in Puerto Vallarta. There are plenty of corner stores, convenience stores and liquor stores that will have plenty of clean water for sale. You can also find it at every grocery store and restaurant throughout the entire city; just ask the server for a bottle of water or botela de agua. If you stay at a hotel or resort, they will likely provide you a few bottles in your room everyday with daily house keeping, or you can always ask at the front desk. If you rent an apartment or a condo, ask the host if tthe water in the building is safe to drink or not. Many new builds have filtration systems installed. Restaurants and bars around the city do not make their own ice with water from the city sources. Most of them have it delivered on a daily basis, or if they do make their own, it's because they have a filtration system in house, so it's perfectly safe to enjoy those delicious margaritas on the beach!

@@beachbumbling yes, it's a big blow. Our wharf is over 100 years old and houses many multi generational family businesses. The area lion viewing station was a local icon and will sorely missed. We'll clean up most of the mess before the springtime...But the wharf may never be the same, unfortunately.

@aviandv that's very unfortunate.

We really appreciate hearing that. Thanks for watching.:)

Time to visit again! A lot has changed, and it's still a gorgeous and warm place.

Some wall structures are created by the municipal and state government, as well as private entities, but this one certainly wasn't.

Mind blowing indeed! Many people have a shared history of memories made, and those are now floating around in the ocean. Maybe some thing can yet be salvaged. Thanks for watching and stay safe out there!

Stay tuned, we'll be releasing a longer video of the event as it unfolded by tomorrow. It's sad, indeed, but at least everyone was ok and it will be rebuilt! Sending good vibes from Santa Cruz!

In our experience, not really, especially if your bank doesn't charge foreign transaction fees. We don't like to travel with that much cash, the exchange rate is pretty much the same, and you have to go to your bank to pick up the pesos, so we just find the atms to be with the small price of the transaction fee for the ease and convienence. Just use one owned by a major bank, not a free standing, independent atm company. Those ones often charge fees that are way too expensive.

​@aviandv thanks. Appreciate the info

That's too bad. You're missing out on an awesome city, but we won't try to change your mind.

This town felt a lot like Yelapa, but less busy and not so packed with tourists. It has a better beach area, too. We really liked it and would be down to spend a few days there, sometime.

Rex you don’t know what you’re talking about

Thanks Anthony! We were there in September and same for us. It was so sweaty! December through April is when the weather is the most pleasant, there. We absolutely love that city around Christmas and New Years.

Thanks for watching! We actually had been traveling since 3am that day, but we do go to bed earlier than some. Lol Have fun on your trip🍹🥳

אתה מוזמן! תודה שצפיתם.

@inandoutnature5127 You should be fine if you just walk by the people in the "shark tank." Otherwise, it's just like most other airports. Have fun and feel free to ask us any other questions you think we could answer :)

@@aviandv great thx a lot will u recommend a tour guide u use?

@@pattiscarborough6275 thank you so much and we hope you have so much fun! It's a great resort at a good value.

Thank you!

Thank you so much! We love hearing that our videos help people. Puerto Vallarta is a very safe city, especially if you stick to the Centro and Zona Romantica areas, though we've explored well beyond those and have never felt unsafe. We know you'll have so much fun! Our favorite AI is an adults only. We've stayed at Plaza Pelicanos and enjoyed it, but there wasn't much in the way of activities. We recently stayed at the Riu in Nuevo Vallarta (review video coming soon!) and while we found the food and pool to be so so, we really enjoyed the beautiful beach area and there was LOTS of activities for all ages! It's a little out of the way, but easy enough to catch an Uber or a Taxi from if you want to get off the resort and explore the city. We've never stayed there, but we've heard great things about the Hyatt Ziva to the south of the city and the Hilton by the marina. Also never stayed there but if you want to be right in town, check out the Buenaventura. Beach there is a little rocky but the location can't be beat. We hope you have a great trip and that you grow to love Vallarta as much as we do!

It's an easy place to love. Have fun next week!

Wow, it must have been really cool to live in Santa Cruz in the 60s. It sure has changed around here!

Thanks Karen!
