We took this tour based on your video and great experience. I can say that this was FANTASTIC! I would 100% recommend this day trip to Sayulita. Every single thing was top-notch. Jose Antonio along with his assistant, Yahir, provided the best service anyone could expect. I really cannot say enough good things about this entire excursion. The secluded beach was truly special and just incredible. The food that they prepared was delicious and Sayulita is just the greatest, little surfer town. Thank you for your fantastic videos, Aly!
It is amazing how this place has blown up over the last 15 years. I remember when there were a handful of local stores and Don Pablo's. The beaches were completely empty except for a handful of local swimmers and surfers.
Aly - Thank you so much for your videos on Puerto Vallarta. We booked with Tony 10 minutes after watching this video and it was a GREAT day trip. He is as good a cook as he is a guide. Just got back home and want to go back and try the hot springs trip. I cant agree with you more about spending a couple of days in Vallarta and then going on a day trip somewhere.
All of your info about Puerto Vallarta was spot on, from the ATM's, the airport taxi's, and having pesos when we get there. We would actually laugh when things happened because it was EXACTLY as you said it would. Thank You! @@alysmalls
Sounds like an incredible day trip from Puerto Vallarta to Sayulita! The combination of visiting markets, exploring Sayulita, and enjoying a BBQ lunch on a secluded beach sounds like the perfect itinerary. The details provided about the duration, small group size, and affordable cost make it even more appealing for anyone considering this trip. I'm looking forward to watching the video and learning more about your experience!
Wow!!! That looks like a sweet tour!!! Nice!! And look at you, 31.6K subscribers. I remember you with hundreds of subs!!! lol Cheers to that!!! Channel is doing great! Thanks for the great vids!!! Awesome! I really wanna go on that tour!!! Looks Grande!! :)
Wow this looks lovely! I’m going to PV in a couple weeks & have been super hesitant on booking tours cause I’m pregnant & don’t wanna commit to an all day thing but I really like this one. Thank you! I’ll likely book this :)
This is a lovely and beautifully made video but I didn't recognize anything that you showed, other than the headland at the south end of the town. Perhaps the reason is that the last time I visited Sayulita was 50 years ago. The "road" from the highway to the village forded a stream five times. The stream is where the women in the town did their laundry. There were no hotels, one tiny abarrote (grocery store) located in the owners house, and one "restaurant" near the beach that occasionally cooked something. Camping in a coconut grove was 10 pesos per night, with a roofless and doorless outhouse. The village itself extended about a half km north from the headland, and beyond that there was nothing but empty shoreline until the area near Rincon de Guayabitos. The majority of the houses had thatch roofs. With the possible exception of two or three houses on the headland every structure in Sayulita is new. The road to Punta Mita was a muddy track through the jungle, and Punta Mita was a barren coast line, bereft of a single building and inhabited by about a dozen nude hippies. It was perfect, and I loved it.
Great video Aly! Thanks for all the wonderful information. Do you have any recommendations for private transportation from PV to Sayulita without a tour? Xoxo
I started watching your videos as I have an trip coming up next week to Puerto Vallarta,but I love your eyelashes lol and looks like they are yours.. got me wondering what mascara or what tips you recommend lol
In bulerías now, at casa victoria on the same block as the paraíso bungalows. We did culis then buciburger then buclas. Today will be the rooftop bar y’all were at in last video. Sayulita will be tomorrow morning.
Hmmm I just checked and it's showing about 136 usd...unfortunately prices are going up on everything. But you won't find a better tour guide and small group tour than Antonio and his crew 😊
Hi Aly. Did you book all your Puerto Vallarta tours through viator or did you also book directly with local agency? Which one do you prefer? I learned i much prefer private day tours than bigger group tours.
The price for the hot spring is over $200 cad per person now with the link In the bio. The beach trip is $188 per person. We’re these the costs ? I saw you mention $100 usd.
Yes, prices have increased, just like everywhere else. We took the hot springs tour 2 years ago, and this Sayulita tour 1 year ago (when the video was posted).
@@alysmallsah gotcha. Yes been travelling the last few years so definitely aware how inflation has affected areas all over the world. But these are 100% jumps you re speaking about, that’s Abit insane no? Now to visit the hot springs is a $450 CAD endeavour for 2 people…
I don't disagree. I'm currently seeing $429 CAD for 2 people. So that's $215 per person . Here's how I think of it: You get transportation, coffee/snacks, fun market shopping, tortilla experience, couple hours at the hot springs, more snacks, a massive grilled lunch, one hour massage on the beach, and transportation back to your hotel. We spend several thousand dollars on a trip to PV (flights, accomms, food) - to me - a little over 200 bucks is worth it for a full day experience + food + massage. I think it comes down to budget and what you're looking to get out of your trip!
5:50 DISCLAIMER… for all foreigners. Is absolutely false to be promised or advertise ANYWHERE in Mexico a private beach. For the sole reason that in the constitution beaches are properly of the Nation. Don’t know if she meant an empty beach or wanted to sound special or important. Every beach is free and anyone can walk or bathe without reservations. (Literally).

Hey Aly fellow Canadian that recently discovered your channel. Love your content! Keep up the amazing videos love them!
Muchas felicidades Antonio, sin duda uno de los tours más sofisticados y personalizados...
It is amazing how this place has blown up over the last 15 years. I remember when there were a handful of local stores and Don Pablo's. The beaches were completely empty except for a handful of local swimmers and surfers.
Cannot wait to our tour on Friday! The hot springs tour today was incredible!
Great videos. Your dialogue is very well done and the video quality is excellent.

I love this so much! Tony is the best, he puts together such wholesome tours. I'm so happy you enjoyed, definitely do the hot springs next time!!

We did exactly the same! We'll be in Puerto Vallarta in a few weeks and looking forward to meet Antonio.
Wow… now that was an amazing day trip
Your videos are excellent. 🌺🌺🌺
Aly thanks for the video!! I hope that one day I can go there. Looks so delicious!! Thanks dear. ❤
We have booked our 10th trip to Puerto Vallarta for December. We will definitely book Antonio for a day trip. Thanks!

Wow!

Ooo how is Casa Victoria? We passed it several times, couldn't see much, but looks nice & a good location. Sounds like you're having a blast
Hi Aly, Love your videos . Checked this out for my trip in Feb. Wow the price sure has gone up $181 US seems a little high from when you went on it
Hmmm I just checked and it's showing about 136 usd...unfortunately prices are going up on everything. But you won't find a better tour guide and small group tour than Antonio and his crew 😊
Which website
The link in the video description: viator.tp.st/gPHrkdHi
Great Video
Beautiful
Hi Aly. Did you book all your Puerto Vallarta tours through viator or did you also book directly with local agency? Which one do you prefer?
I learned i much prefer private day tours than bigger group tours.
I always book through Viator or sometimes Airbnb experiences!
How many nights/days do you recommend in Sayulita to really enjoy it
2-3
Also, we have little ones and would like to spend a few days in a clean, clear beach… which do you recommend if you had to pick one?
What is the beach called? With the black sand
The price for the hot spring is over $200 cad per person now with the link In the bio. The beach trip is $188 per person. We’re these the costs ? I saw you mention $100 usd.

What beach restaurant is that?
Which website?
How do you book a tour like this?
I booked it through Viator, the link to the tour is in the description of the video
Truly Canadian - shout out 'green banana lovers'!!! lol #truestory
Hehehe 😂
Are you sure the black on the beach wasn't from an oil spill?
Lol definitely not from an oil spill 🤣

ya I think you got a little lost in translation there. Secluded/empty/private away from the crowds is how it's positioned
