Amazing experience - This tour was amazing! Couldn’t have asked for a better way to spend my birthday. Cliff jumping from the start then epic snorkeling at Los Arcos, waterfall hike and swimming an amazing stop for lunch at a beachfront restaurant and more snorkeling. Paol was a great tour guide, super knowledgeable about the area and Jack was so friendly. They go above and beyond to make sure you have an enjoyable experience! Highly recommend, we will be back for sure!!!

Jack Sparrow at its best in PV - we had a great time. Our day was filled with snorkeling, watching a waterfall cascade and sight seeing the different places outside of our hotel zone.

A highlight of our trip - Our group had a fantastic time with Captain Jack snorkeling at Los Arcos and visiting several different beaches in Banderas Bay. Jack was very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. He went out of his way to show us the wildlife as we snorkeled and took care to make sure everyone was having fun and doing alright. Our group really enjoyed this tour.

One of a kind excursion!! - This was our first trip to Puerto Vallarta. My wife had read many reviews and wanted to go on a Jack Sparrow excursion. Javier was our guide and did a fantastic job. We also met Jack his brother in the morning, who was very friendly. We are staying at the Barceló resort and visited their booth. They told us everything they had to offer and we decided on the full day. We started by going cliff jumping (which was awesome), the Arches (amazing),and then off to cruise along the shore looking at beautiful shorelines. We then went to the waterfall hike. The town is very cute. We were able to get into the fresh water. It was very refreshing after the hike. There were some young local boys cliff jumping into the water fall (scary)! In the way back we stopped at a place to eat. The food was very good and we shared a few appetizers. My teenagers (16, and 19) loved it and had a great time as well as my wife and I. We recommend this excursion!!

From the King Family. - Captain Jack and his crew were amazing. We spent the day with them and I have nothing but wonderful things to say about them. We were a large group traveling with children from 4 months old to 18. They tailored everything to us. They are incredibly kind and I look forward to seeing them again. Thank you Captain Jack and your crew.

Amazing experience!! - Booked this trip after catching Jack a few times on the way to the beach. His prices seemed to be the best compared to some of the other tours being offered nearby, and Jack was super personable and welcoming. My family, including 2 teens, had the best day of our vacation! Snorkeling, cliff jumping, horseback riding. It was such a memorable day. We were particularly impressed when Jack guided our son through the best spots to cliff jump near a waterfall by going first, while other tour guides with different groups simply sat idle. Would hands down do it again, highly recommend!

Los Acros and bioluminescence excursion - This trip was incredible! The attention to detail, safety, and overall quality of experience did NOT disappoint! Unparalleled quality and value- No rush and laid back attitude of Jack/Javier and the teams, paired with the consistent support on-boarding or exiting vehicle...and the AMAZING VIEWS! Best excursion experience possible...we booked both bioluminescent snorkeling and day trip for following day - We enjoyed cliff jumping on both and snorkeling of course. We even got to hike up the local paths for a beautiful waterfall view and swimming with the fish at the natural pool there. Yummy lunch options on the next beach were top notch! The history and movie info was great! Thanks again!

Random Boat Tour - The positives: Stop at many beautiful places and snorkeling at Los Arcos was great. Lunch spot they take you to was good food (mostly seafood). The waterfall is amazing. Small groups so you are able to hear your guides instructions easily. The tour guide was helpful in many ways and any negatives seem like company issues not his issues. The negatives: Very disorganized. When we arrived at the location, we didn't find anyone for our tour until after our departure time had passed. The hike to the waterfall takes over 45 minutes. Bring shoes with a grip. You will be crossing through creeks on the way there, so be prepared for that. I slipped on a muddy rock at the falls and luckily brought a first aid kit to clean and sanitize the wound myself. The tour is more loosely organized than I am used to. This felt more like a boat ride with random stops. Didn't learn about the area as much as would have liked.
