We had a great day! Kevin and crew were fantastic. They took us to multiple beaches, shared lots of information about the area and animals and help us to find lots of fish. We would definitely go again!
Kevin (guide) and boat driver were excellent and made the experience very fun. So helpful and polite! Gave lots of information about the area and the local culture. Great value for the money!
Daniel and Omar with Black Pearl were absolutely amazing! We enjoyed three boat tours, and every single one was an incredible experience. We went snorkeling, enjoyed deep-sea fishing, visited several beautiful beaches, and even had the opportunity to eat at Los Conos. Every tour was unforgettable, and the service was outstanding. We had such a wonderful time and made memories that will last a lifetime. We highly recommend Black Pearl, Daniel, and Omar. Thank you for making our vacation so special!
Kevin & the captain were amazing tour guides! Amazing spot to snorkel, the beaches & restaurant Los Conos to remember. Completely recommend them and worth it!
We had an amazing fishing trip with Rolando, Ronaldo and Chino. Ralph and Daniel are friendly and easy to talk to. I would highly recommend booking with them for a great experience.
Great experience!!! It was an excelent trip. It is recommeded!!
Great experience with many things to do. Cliff Diving, snorkeling, and the boat took us to two beaches where theres fools gold in the sand and water so the water literally sparkles ✨️ We went to another beach to eat. The restaurant had showers to wash up after being in the water. Our guide Kevin was great, encouraging everyone to try something new and really made it a fantastic experience.
Our family had the most amazing experience on this tour I highly recommend this tour. Kevin was the best he was very friendly and knowledgeable. The snorkeling was so much fun and Kevin made sure we had a great time id love to do this tour again and so would my kid's. Will definitely be going with this tour again. Thank you so much Kevin ♥️
Shout out to Kevin! He was a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable and helpful. Helped my daughter when she wasn't feeling comfortable with snorkeling. He was able to calm her down and because of that, was still able to enjoy the experience. Very friendly. The places we visit were amazing! The boat ride and the beaches were all amazing! I would recommend 100%!
This was a great tour. Javier and Joshua were very kind, helpful and fun. The snorkeling was so beautiful and the day was overall great. They even took pictures and are going to send them for free. Amazing time at a great price.
From start to finish the entire trip was amazing. Our kids loved it. We loved it and our guides were amazing!
We have the best day with Kevin and Denison! Would highly recommend and will definitely be back!!
We took the tour with this vendor at half a day for our family, it was one of the most beautiful tours. People in this company took care of us so well and stopped on all amazing beaches, I highly recommend them when tour are here at puerto Valletta.
It was awesome we went with the family and enjoyed every bit!
Kind, hart working people. One odd thing was that we all got in line to board the boat and we were directed to go to the end of the line and board last behind the Hispanic people. Odd
My mom and I had an amazing time! Kevin and the other crew/captain were all very friendly and accommodating. They made sure we were always having a good time, and gave an incredible guided tour of the islands and beaches. We would highly recommend Black Pearl Vallarta to others. Thankyou!
Amazing day! Javier, Joshua and Daniel are the very best. Highly recommended. Professional and courteous.
Awesome our guide Javier was amazing!!!!!
Javier was awesome family had great time
Kevin, our guide, and his boat captain were impeccable hosts. Friendly, informative, accommodating and careful. They took lots of photos on a GoPro, no extra charge. We really appreciated their cheerful attitude and knowledge of the local area. We will definitely be back!!
Amazing experience visiting Los Arcos de Mismaloya! The panga ride was fun and offered beautiful views of the coastline. We also got to enjoy the natural aquarium, where we could see colorful fish and marine life in the crystal-clear water. The scenery was absolutely beautiful, and the whole experience was relaxing, exciting, and memorable. Definitely a great activity for anyone visiting the area 🫰🏽🌊✨
This is the best snorkeling experience ever! The tour guide explained the history of Mismaloya! They took us to the arches and we saw the best fish during snorkeling! Don’t think twice and book this tour! It’s worth every penny!
Really well and very good for a small visit. Pretty great guide and awesome. Very awesome entertainment. Worth it.
Kevin and Omar did a great job. Kevin was very knowledgeable and made sure everyone had a great time. Omar was a great captain and piloted tolhe boat exceptionally well. Daniel at the desk made sure we got the tour we were looking for. 10 out of 10, would recommend
Excelente trip ando confortable
Our guide Kevin was the best. 100% recommend
we booked a trip and it was amazing the guide javier was amazing the fee was a good price
That was a nice experience. The scenery was beautiful and we had some activities. Snorkeling near one of the island, jumping off the cliff were the highlights of the tour! Would definitely recommend this to my friend. The price is nice 👍🏻
Great experience with Danny and his crew! Will for sure be back. If you are looking to go on excursions from Mismaloya there is no better team to go with than Black Pearl Adventures. Thanks again Danny!
Best experience! Danny with Black Pearl Vallarta Adventures, is an excellent tour guide. He is professional, patient and makes you feel very safe when going out with your family! The tour was amazing. Highly recommend for anyone looking to do beach or any other adventures in Mismaloya!
Great experience, Kevin is such a great tour guide. He made this experience very enjoyable. The beaches we saw were amazing and the snorkeling was so fun!! The last beach we visited had a restaurant with bathrooms and showers!
It’s the third time I’ve gone out with them. It’s always a pleasure to see the Black Pearl friends
Such an amazing experience!! The tour was very in depth, so fun, and overall, wonderful! The whale watching, the cliff jumping, the restaurant, and the guides were the absolute best! 10/10 recommend (Kevin is the awesome)
Kevin was an absolute legend! He made our snorkeling tour in Puerto Vallarta an unforgettable experience from start to finish. He was knowledgeable, professional, hilarious, and made everyone feel completely safe and comfortable in the water. His energy was unmatched, and you could tell he genuinely loves what he does. If you’re visiting Puerto Vallarta and looking for an incredible snorkeling adventure, ask for Kevin—you won’t regret it! 10/10 experience!
Me and my family had a great experience on the water watching whales and snorkeling with Kevin. The experience was a bit pricey but it was okay because the activity’s made up for it. Our experience lasted about 6 or 7 hours so the experience was very much worth every penny. I would 100% recommend doing this experience when visiting Puerta Vallarta!!
Pickup was great, and Kevin was an amazing, funny, and incredibly knowledgeable tour guide! The clarity of the water was perfection for snorkelling, so we got to see all the fishies! The beach stops were also rad because we got to spend more time there than anticipated, which made the experience that much more special. Just a heads up: there is no drop off included in the price, which we somehow missed in the details. That said, Kevin was super helpful and went out of his way to find us a ride back to the area we were staying in. 100% recommend booking this adventure!
I really enjoyed the tour, súper entertaining. This in an experience that I recommend if you visit PV. Kevin was amazing the best tour guide and Ralph so nice aswell
This was such a beautiful experience our guide Kevin and Omar were great !! The experience was better than expected. I went with my toddler and they were both nice enough to help me with her while snorkeling!!! Definitely recommend!!!
Our family group of eight people had amazing time ,very attentive and knowledgeable about the area. We felt very safe and looked after. The snorkelling and jumping from the cliff was amazing and we also enjoyed having lunch in the beach-side restaurant afterwards.
Incredible experience, I did the tour with my two kids of 6 years and the personal was very professional and kind
It was amazing, we loved Kevin
Great experience! The tour guides were very helpful and accommodating
Great trip, had lots of fun and was taken by some amazing people
very fun and really pretty sights
Awesome experience. Loved the staff
All good! the guys are really nice!!!!
Absolutely amazing time! Kevin, Javier and Joshua went above and beyond to ensure we had an incredible time. Not only did we get to go snorkeling but also cliff jumping, visited 2 beaches and spent time relaxing at a remote (accessible by boat only) beach club. Not once did we feel rushed or shuffled from one activity to the next. It was truly a relaxing and very enjoyable day! If you're in Mismaloya or Porta Vallarta, definitely stop by and do a tour with them!
I want to say a huge thank you to these three amazing guides! You have to experience these guys for yourselves — incredibly friendly, helpful, and above all, so attentive and welcoming. I haven’t had this much fun with a group in a long time. The places you visit with them are simply impossible to put into words. If you don’t take this trip, you’re missing out on true paradise! This trip definitely calls for a repeat with the boys. Absolutely fantastic!
Amazing experience with the team. They ( Javier, Kevin and Joshua) encourage everyone to get nice experience equally. Helped us to try snorkeling for the first time when we were a little hesitant and guided us through the time.
Great wonderful guide lovef beaches
