See Mazatlán’s top sights on a small-group tour with hotel or cruise pickup, free entry stops, and a beachside Mexican shrimp lunch.
“Small groupings so it never feels crowded, you also never feel rushed. Ends on a beautiful beach surrounded by mariachis wanting to perform for cash which is part of the experience. It was my Grandmother's(85 years old!) favorite part of the trip. She has mobility issues and our tour guide treated her with so much respect and care.”
Half-day Mazatlan tour with Old Town sights, a cliff-jumping show, and a catamaran to Isla de la Piedra for lunch, open bar, and activities.
“Our Guide Louis was a kind and wonderful guide. He took great care of my family of 10. The Cathedral was so beautiful. We wish only that it was pointed out when we were in old town and where to shop during the city tour apart from street vendors with the same items. Shopping at the cruise terminal was really nice and relaxing. Otherwise the beach was amazing, the drinks strong and the food tasty. We ordered extra tacos out of pocket as they were not an included menu item. Everyone was so accommodating and we each had a blast riding horses and boogie boarding in the righteous waves. Well…”
Mazatlan half-day tour to a Blue Agave tequila factory and La Noria villages, with tastings, local crafts, and optional lunch upgrade.
“Our tour got cancelled the very same day we arrived to the port . We found our driver who informed us that he texted me the night before to cancel the tour . Obviously we never received the text since we were in the middle of the ocean , so we could reschedule or re arrange either way another company. I haven’t received the money for the two tickets yet .”

“We booked this excursion just before sailing from Long Beach. For some reason even though i booked the 1030am excursion we were scheduled for the 9am. All it took was a direct call to the zipline operator and the issue was resloved. The pick-up at the pier went smooth and since we were the only group we got a small taxi that stayed with us the entire day. Originally, I was only going along for the ride while my daughters ziplined, but I was given a great price to do an ATV tour. Upon arrival we were introduced to the staff by our driver and the girls were off with…”
