    What is the bus capacity and size of the tour?

    Group size
    Transport

  • T

    Tiffany

    Asked on February 2nd, 2026

    Is the single supplement available for this tour? The cost is listed as $2,850

    Price / Availability
    Single supplement
    • G AdventuresOperator•Written February 2026

      This departure, together with the single supplement, is on request. This means your booking is not confirmed until we receive notification from our local operations team.

      Please allow 3-4 business days for processing (though it can take 5-10 business days for Japan, Europe, Turkey and Roamies trips), in order to confirm that all of the components of the tour package can be confirmed for you. This may include but is not limited to accommodations, activities, and transport. While we endeavour to provide a response within this timeframe, it is important that you are aware that there may be certain situations that take a little longer.

      If your place is available, you will be booked and confirmed on the tour. If it is not available, you will be issued a full refund of any pre-authorised funds. It is important that you understand this process may not be interrupted by a request to cancel as doing so will not entitle you to any refund.

  • L

    Lindsay

    Asked on January 11th, 2026

    I'm wondering if you know of any one-way tourist packages from Mexico City to Puerta Vallarta?

    Tour Details
    • G AdventuresOperator•Written January 2026

      At the moment, we don't have any tours that start in Mexico City and end in Puerto Vallarta. However, we do have a few wonderful trips that include Puerto Vallarta as part of their itinerary. There are several great options that explore Mexico's beautiful Pacific coast and surrounding regions.

  • S

    Sarah

    Asked on October 29th, 2025

    Is there a tour returning to Puerto Valarta?

    Tour Details
    • G AdventuresOperator•Written October 2025

      We do have a few tours that start in Puerto Vallarta, however none that end there. Most of our Mexico itineraries finish in Playa del Carmen, Tulum, or Mexico City, depending on the route. We would be happy to help identify which route might work best based on your travel plans?

  • R

    Ross

    Asked on June 21st, 2025

    When it states "local bus" what kind of bus is this?

    • G AdventuresOperator•Written June 2025

      Local bus refers to public long-distance buses which are very comfortable in Mexico. It is not a city bus.
