A Wonderful World Of Food Just 10 Minutes From The Marina!
Every Town Has A Unique Take On Regional Cuisine. Pitillal is a charming pueblo on the outer edge of Vallarta, just 10 minutes from the Marina—making this tour the perfect way to explore more of Mexico without going too far.
- Bring your appetite as you will be full by the end of this 3.5-hour guided food tour.
- Pitillal is small so we will pass by several landmarks along the way, like the stunning Parroquia de San Miguel Archangel. We’ll walk about 1 mile between our 7 stops.
- You won’t see as many tourists in town so you’ll get a greater feel of authentic Mexican living.
- Eat in a mix of street stands and family-owned restaurants serving mouthwatering regional cuisine.
