Embark on a journey through the natural and cultural wonders south of Puerto Vallarta with this PRIVATE EXPERIENCE, priced for up to four people—you only pay for one ticket and can bring up to three companions. Larger groups can be accommodated upon request; please email us for details. Our adventure begins at the Puerto Vallarta Botanical Garden, a lush paradise home to diverse flora, orchids, and exotic birds. Enjoy a guided walk through its scenic trails and immerse yourself in the beauty of Mexico’s rich biodiversity. Next, we explore the ancient petroglyphs, sacred rock carvings that tell the stories of the region’s indigenous past. We’ll also visit a traditional mountain bakery, where you’ll witness the art of baking in a clay oven and enjoy the aromas of freshly made bread.
