EXCELLENT Based on 138 reviews Posted on Google Sabrina MarquezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had the opportunity of taking 2 classes with Jeanne 🩵 took a cooking class at the start of my Sunday, we got a tour of local markets and went to a restaurant to chop, prepare salsa and chicken enchiladas, super yummy. Very enjoyable class if you also want to learn more about the Mexican culture in Puerto Vallarta i highly recommend. Later that day, my dad signed me up for salsa class and it was with Jeanne, what a fun way to connect. We learned some basic steps, practiced on her roof top and the sunset. Once we were ready, we walked over to the public area where all the locals dance and celebrate their existence and enjoy by dancing, coming together, and letting go The music was good the people were all very inclusive and it was a fun way to dance and end my evening. Definitely a full day, but I recommend one day be full of life and new adventure. Thank you for sharing your talents Jeanne may the world know your heart 💜Posted on Google Rachel ZTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Book This Tour! Truly, you won't regret it. We loved getting to tour local markets, to learn about traditional foods and their preparation, and to watch tortillas made from start to finish. The stories, the genuine relationships Jeanne has forged with the locals and and all the food was indeed authentic. The blind tasting was so fun too! I'm a foodie and my sister is not, and we both loved it!Posted on Google Kathleen KTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Authentik Tours really came through on a same day request. They connected us with the most enjoyable horseback riding experience. Thank you!!!Posted on Google MarioTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a fantastic hike with Jeanne. It was definitely a huge highlight of my time in Puerto Vallarta. She created a welcoming, relaxed atmosphere and shared interesting insights about the area without overwhelming the experience. It felt like exploring with someone who genuinely loves what they do. The hike itself was beautiful and varied, with lush jungle, coastal views, and the best hidden beaches you wouldn’t easily find on your own. There was a great balance of activity and time to swim or take in the scenery. What stood out most was how personal the experience felt—Jeanne really knows how to make the experience perfect and most unique. She knows all the locals and it made it for an even more genuine experience. Overall, a deeply thoughtful and well-organized experience that I’d HIGHLY recommend to anyone able-bodied. I will definitely be booking more experiences that Jeanne has to offer when i return to PV.Posted on Google Sean FinchTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What a great experience. I’d highly recommend this class. From the start the experience was lovely and unique, from the setting to the personalised experience offered by Jeanne. Jeanne is super knowledgeable and had me dancing in no time. Thanks again for a great memory!Posted on Google Megan JohnsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our family had the most fantastic tour with Jeanne to Quimixto while visiting Puerto Vallarta. She spent a lot of time before our trip communicating with us as we chose the best fit for our group, and she was flexible and responsive when we chose our adventure. The journey was great right from the beginning, as she welcomed us with warmth and enthusiasm. Her knowledge of the area and joy of sharing it with others was such a gift. We had a beautiful day together that our whole family enjoyed. Highly recommend this insiders guide into PV and beyond!Posted on Google Shlomit YerushalmiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jeanne and Authentik Tours was recommended to us by a Mexican friend who suggested them especially because of their connection to the community. We were a group of 5 people choosing the Macau sanctuary trip. It was my birthday and it felt like a best way to celebrate it in nature. The communication with Jeanne was quick and very pleasant from the start. She also sent us information about what to bring and how to get dressed. Jeanne is fluent in several languages and she is knowledgeable about the area, the Macau and the community that takes care of the site. It was very interesting to meet some of the family members see their dedications to the endangered Macau species and learn how they take care of them. The area is beautiful and scenic and we were able to hear and see some of the birds, although it appears that a best time to see more of them is in January February. We ended the beautiful experience with lunch in an authentic Mexican restaurant owned by local family. Thank you Jeanne and Authentic Tours staff for a beautiful experience. We will try some of the other trips and experience you offer. MonaPosted on Google Carmen GrahamTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jeanne provided an amazing experience starting with the history of Puerto Vallarta, Day of the Dead, and Mexican cuisine. Then we made our way through a market learning about local foods to the area. Finally we finished with a hands-on cooking class using local ingredients we learned about earlier and sampling the products we made. I would highly recommend Jeanne and her experiences!Posted on Google Art SaucedoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. La experiencia es súper bonita y con guías muy apasionados! Jeanne es una auténtica profesional!Posted on Google Emily Ross-BookerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Sanctuary tour with Jeanne was wonderful. It's a beautiful place with amazing views and is very peaceful. Jeanne is incredibly knowledgeable about the birds answering all the very random questions I asked. Everyone involved with the tour is friendly and welcoming. And of course, the Macaws are beautiful, funny little guys with lots of personality.
