Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - Superior Tours Vallarta, Old Town's full service travel agent, recently received the highest qualification (5 stars) by Tripadvisor.

"We have worked really hard and are extremely satisfied to receive this qualification," owner Astrid van Dam says. "So far, this is the year with the most different tours that we offer. Every weekend we offer a 3 days tour to Guadalajara, sometimes combined with Chapala and Ajijic as well. This is our shortest overnight tour."

When asked which of Superior Tours Vallarta's excursions were most popular, Astrid replied, "Our March tour to Copper Canyon is already fully booked, so we've set an extra date. Then our tour to the Colonial highlands with visits to Mexico City, plus the 'Independence Route of Mexico,' with visits to Guanajuato, San Miguel, Morelia and Patzcuaro, which also have guaranteed dates.
