We are both performers in PV...he is one of the Violin Trio at La Capella and I am a Cabaret performer at Act 2. Maybe you could do a little video about the great shows and night life people can enjoy in PV and still stay in their budget. Have a great day!

    Puerto Vallarta is a city and spa town in the Mexican state of Jalisco.Puerto Vallarta is place where you can walk for hours.It is then worth visiting the temple of Nuestra Senora de Guadalupe and the Margado Rio Coulte market. I have visited this beautiful city once in my life.Thank you for the beautiful video and messages.Greetings to the people of Chicago. Illinois. Mexico is such a beautiful neighbor of the United States.

    My husband and I are going to PV in April - this video and a couple of your other ones have been so helpful. Incidentally, we’ll be staying at Posada de Roger so I was happy to see it get a good review! Also going to Merida for a few days. I couldn’t find a video for that but I did read your blog about it which was super helpful too. Thank you!

I am going in July but trying to do my legwork on everything so by the time I go. I will be as sharp as a tack and pls tell me the best places you ate at with good values, cause I don't want to have to worry my whole trip about scams

      Hi Dovy, have you considered Bucerias? It's 30 minutes north of Puerto Vallarta, very quiet & laid back. I think you my like the paace there better! I have several videos on my channel about Bucerias. And I'll be posting a walking tour video in the next couple days.

      I haven't stayed but that's a classic choice, been around for a while, reviews seem pretty good. Location wise, there's lots of restaurants around, but it's a 25 min walk to the Malecon, or probably 10 -15 mins via taxi or bus into downtown.

    It's hard to believe my wife and I have been to P.V. 23 times as of 2022. We have done it all and ate it all. Be sure to see Rythem of the nights. Throw on the tourist clothes and have dinner at Pippies (and two margaritas), then down the hill to the Malecon and shop till you drop. A week min. Advised. Safer than California
