Pacifico Puerto Vallarta Tepic recent customer reviews

The driver was not going to allow me as a disabled person to bring my bag with all my meds and heart monitors. So day started out n the wrong foot. Then we reserved the two front seats so go watch the road as I get carsick at times but bus driver had his cloths on and would not move them.
