Love Puerto Vallarta, been there four times, going again in August.

[@alysmalls]

It's one of my favorite cities for sure!

[@Dennis-kj9qx]

23 now for the wife and I, and we are looking forward to the 2023 trip. Never enough......

[@zackspeaks9951]

Appreciate all the PV videos! My wife and I will be going in a couple of months for our honeymoon so these videos couldnt have come at a better time. First time out of the US for both of us and you've helped us get even more excited about our stay down there. Thanks!

[@alysmalls]

I hope you have a great time!!

[@Dennis-kj9qx]

Bet you go back again!

[@toolrammsteindeftones]

Awesome! You're gonna love it!

[@chuyvee505]

How was it?

[@devinferrari]

@@chuyvee505 amazing man! Had a great time. Checked out all the areas I wanted to see, walked the malecon. I love the romantica zone. Worth going for sure! Felt very safe ubering around by myself, no issues. Everyone is super friendly and food is amazing. Will be back, I think bucerias is next 🤙🏻

[@sukegewi863]

Thank you for your Videos, we are going in a couple days to PV. 😊

[@zuzannawisniewska4464]

Puerto Vallarta is a city and spa town in the Mexican state of Jalisco.Puerto Vallarta is place where you can walk for hours.It is then worth visiting the temple of Nuestra Senora de Guadalupe and the Margado Rio Coulte market. I have visited this beautiful city once in my life.Thank you for the beautiful video and messages.Greetings to the people of Chicago. Illinois. Mexico is such a beautiful neighbor of the United States.

And you can get kidnapped and possibly murdered as well. What a great place.

[@sparklesnthings2273]

Thank you coming next week for 2 weeks your voice is so soothing

[@MadeNCda]

Thank you Aly for this video - I just subscribed and will watch other of your videos. I just last night booked PV for Christmas and am looking forward to exploring. I have only every heard good things about PV 😊 Cheers!

[@alalesc3796]

Puerto Vallarta is beautiful!

[@venuswarrior8456]

Loved her info. Thanks

[@tonjareneehall]

Love your videos Aly! My boyfriend and I live right behind Iglesia de Guadalupe and love seeing the church featured in so many of your videos. We are both performers in PV...he is one of the Violin Trio at La Capella and I am a Cabaret performer at Act 2. Maybe you could do a little video about the great shows and night life people can enjoy in PV and still stay in their budget. Have a great day!

[@RichHandsome]

Loved it!

[@HolisticHikes]

Such a colorful fun location! Beautiful!! 💚

[@kittycat423]

[@SamGarrison-gi8yy]

Thank you 😌

[@chuyvee505]

Awesome Video!! Thank you!

[@mexicoliferodcook9479]

Great video for first timers... Checking in to Mio Vallarta next Saturday and will do a full review and also give you a shout out. Maybe see you on the malecon and buy you guys a drink.

Thanks for sharing

[@DiariesofanAddict]

great video heading there nov 3rd from the uk :) excited to go :)

[@nahidasultana6842]

Thanks for the video! ❤ Do we have to book the hotel ahead of time, or we can book when we get there ?

[@SManzone367]

Cool video with helpful insight as to where and what to do.. plus minute 7:20 was an awesome view but where was that at?? Waterfall looked cool 😉...

[@alysmalls]

yelapa

[@DougSladeStuff]

And......another great video!!! Cheers! ;)

[@runijones2625]

My husband and I are going to PV in April - this video and a couple of your other ones have been so helpful. Incidentally, we’ll be staying at Posada de Roger so I was happy to see it get a good review! Also going to Merida for a few days. I couldn’t find a video for that but I did read your blog about it which was super helpful too. Thank you!

[@alysmalls]

We loved Merida! I haven't made a video yet, but hope to soon. Enjoy your April trip :)

[@dovygoodguy1296]

Do you have a video geared more towards retired or older tourists and expats? Plus areas or times we without big crowds. Thanks.

[@alysmalls]

Hi Dovy, have you considered Bucerias? It's 30 minutes north of Puerto Vallarta, very quiet & laid back. I think you my like the paace there better! I have several videos on my channel about Bucerias. And I'll be posting a walking tour video in the next couple days.

[@Dennis-kj9qx]

It's hard to believe my wife and I have been to P.V. 23 times as of 2022. We have done it all and ate it all. Be sure to see Rythem of the nights. Throw on the tourist clothes and have dinner at Pippies (and two margaritas), then down the hill to the Malecon and shop till you drop. A week min. Advised. Safer than California

[@alysmalls]

Love it!

[@SakibLH44]

Awesome! hoping to go soon

[@julioc4978]

Great video, what's the average daily spend

[@alysmalls]

I would say $30 to $50 tops

[@julioc4978]

@@alysmalls I thought it was more expensive than Cancun,... Interesting. thanks!

[@my3hijos]

Great video! Will you make a video on how and where to exchange money?

[@alysmalls]

I have some tips about money in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/i5Wzn6lqhqefoLc but in a nutshell, I withdraw pesos directly from the ATM once I'm in Puerto Vallarta - that will give you the best rate!

[@CardsofDestiny]

Great video! ❤

[@AleaSummers]

Hello love you video! Do you know what zone south shore hotel area is in? We are looking at a hotel in this area. From the map, it is South the romantic zone

[@alaynasimmons6056]

I have a trip planned there soon any recommendations or tips for a mother and son only trip?

[@alysmalls]

Here's the link to my travel blog with 13 Puerto Vallarta posts, hope that helps :) likewhereyouregoing.com/tag/puerto-vallarta/

[@juanpablocastrochaverri8926]

Is September too rainy?

[@reneelooper121]

We are going and will be staying at Hard Rock. How far is it from these areas?

[@Suhail358]

Are there 2 different times for the free tour offered by tourism office? which one is better?

[@alysmalls]

both the same

[@julialiamrowen]

Hi Aly! Do you have a recommendation for the best sim card? I’ll be arriving Jan 4, staying until April 20. Thank you.

[@alysmalls]

Yes, go to an OXXO and get a telcel card - you can prepay as many gigs as you want and then reload online when/if you run out

[@johnborghese21]

Where is that really long bridge at 6:34 ?

[@alysmalls]

Jorullo

[@379insk]

Hi Aly...Thanks 4 the vid! I have an all inclusive booked at the Canto del sol. What is it like? How is the location? Thanks

[@alysmalls]

I haven't stayed but that's a classic choice, been around for a while, reviews seem pretty good. Location wise, there's lots of restaurants around, but it's a 25 min walk to the Malecon, or probably 10 -15 mins via taxi or bus into downtown.

[@379insk]

@Aly Smalls . Thanks for info! Next year plan on renting some kind of apartment for a month.

[@carlospena3379]

I love my homewtown. :D

[@dovygoodguy1296]

Do you have a guide for vegetarians in Puerto Vallarta? For those who want a winter option but in a quieter Mexico environment as an alternative to Puerto Vallarta, where would you suggest? I don't think my wife and I could handle being in PV. But your videos are terrific as anyway!

[@Azul-ud9iv]

I don't think Valle dorado etc. In the Nuevo Vallarta area are more americanized or more expensive. You have to look around & I wouldn't exchange money at the airport you get less "paysos" for your money. Good info. TY

[@gilstrap1000]

Are there a lot of things to do in Jalisco Puerta Vallarta? How far is Jalisco from where the main town?

[@alysmalls]

Jalisco is the state, Puerto Vallarta is the city

[@gilstrap1000]

@@alysmalls you can see I have never been before 😩

[@Dennis-kj9qx]

You could never do everything to do in P.V.

[@jessietapia9162]

Amazing review but I don't recommend casa María, PVR has to many places for better stay 👏🏼

[@alysmalls]

Why? Casa Maria was one of the best hotels I've stayed in PVR to date

[@jessietapia9162]

@@alysmalls my perspective

[@Timetraveler1111MN]

How to get to a waterfall please?

[@alysmalls]

It's at Yelapa! I have a whole video how to get there: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aoTLc3uHeZ6hbMU

[@christianmeyer4054]

That video about scams is not where you pointed to.

[@samt797]

Tx😊

[@ww2remembered983]

PV is great for couples, gays, lesbians and Canadians. Everyone else will be disappointed.
