San Francisco Luxury Tour

Oh this was a definite highlight! Samuel took us on a private hike/tour. I think the entire walk ended up being 6 or 7 miles and he adjusted to my godmothers speed, she can go forever but very slowly. He’s bilingual, we did the hike in Spanish but he can do either. We started by visiting an amazing community center in san Pancho which he told us all about. I had no idea how many amazing projects go on there: literacy, art, upcycling, workshops… as we were walking through town he answered questions about culture, history, and nature of the area. Then we embarked on a hike through the jungle. He taught us about the plants and animals, what’s being done to conserve the jungle, and why so much is cut down. It was absolutely stunning and he obviously knew the area very well. Again, he went at our pace. We emerged at the beach and learned more. Then we went for the best lunch of all my days in that vacation as he gave us more information about the new town we were in. He was attentive, personable, patient, helpful, and the whole walk was just stunning in beauty. This is why you go on tours with small businesses run by local guides. It couldn’t have been better!

Embarking on the Mono Mountain hike through Tratoli, we had the pleasure of being guided by Sam, who exuded warmth, deep knowledge, and a marvelous sense of humor. Our encounter began in the charming village of Sayulita, where we huddled onto a bus together, setting the stage for an adventure steeped in local flavor. After conquering the invigorating challenge of the hike, we were indulged with a delectable and budget-friendly taco feast back in the vibrant streets of Sayulita. Our all-women group was captivated by Sam's authentic insights, delivered with effortless bilingual flair, capturing the essence of the region's rich history, culture, and natural wonders. His expertise illuminated hidden gems along the trail, including an exclusive vantage point known only to a few, providing us with a truly unique experience. A piece of advice for future hikers: arm yourselves with plenty of hydration, and as a refreshing finale, succumb to the allure of a 'coco frio'—a chilled coconut delight sold quaintly from a local's truck.
