Taco Lovers: Versalles

Go on a journey through the streets of Versalles sampling a wide range of morning and midday tacos.

Versalles is on the lips of many locals and tourists in Vallarta. It’s the “hidden gem” colonia offering streets lined with palm trees, stunning Mexican architecture, and of course amazing food. Meandering the cobblestone streets, you will get a true feel for what daily life is like for many here in Vallarta. Experiencing Versalles by day and tasting its variety of tacos will have you, no doubt, talking about it for days to come.

Our “Taco Lovers: Versalles” tour offers a wide range of tacos served during the day in Mexico. You will learn about the time-intensive methods and preparation of popular dishes like Carnitas and Birria and have the opportunity to sample dozens of homemade salsas ranging from mellow and mild to spicy and wild.

What can you expect:

  • Visit 5 popular eateries for six distinct tacos and dessert
  • Sample Birria, a classic dish born in the State of Jalisco, and now gaining popularity across many North American cities
  • Taste Carnitas prepared and served in classic Mexican style
  • Savor tender street-side flame-grilled Arrachera
  • Dig into a pork belly taco that many have claimed to be “the best taco I’ve ever had.”
  • Experience a new twist on a classic Al Pastor taco with shrimp
  • As on all of our tours, sample fresh fruit waters (agua fresca)
  • Beat the heat with a decadent frozen pie

Tacos Lovers: Versalles is offered Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays.

Tours are limited to 10 guests unless they are one larger group of friends or family. 

One more thing: past guests tell us the best time to take our tours is the beginning of your stay in Puerto Vallarta — you’ll be able to return to your newly found favorites throughout the rest of your visit.
