There are a ton of awesome activities in Puerto Vallarta! If you want to try out a tour, we would recommend booking with Vallarta Adventures. They are Puerto Vallarta's largest and most respectable tour company. Further, we have experienced their services versus "the other guys" first hand and there is really no comparison. Book in advance on the Vallarta Adventures website and get a discount.
Below are some great tours that they offer:
Canopy Tour
We did this the last time that we were in Puerto Vallarta and it was amazing. You take an hour long truck ride out to the jungle canopy and then zip line from tree to tree. Highly recommend this! "Just forty-five minutes from Puerto Vallarta, in the heart of the tropical forest of the Sierra Madre Mountains, lies Vallarta Adventure's own private eco-reserve, a biological paradise where you will discover a stunning profusion of Mexico's tropical flora and fauna. The Canopy Adventure gives you the opportunity to experience this amazing wilderness from a unique perspective."
Swim with Dolphins
If you love dolphins, a visit to the Dolphin Adventure Center should top your list of things to do on your Puerto Vallarta vacation! Vallarta Adventures offers a full range of educational and interactive dolphin programs designed for dolphin lovers of all ages and abilities.
Snorkel or Scuba Dive (but it's not like the reefs in the Caribbean if you ask us)
Jeep Safari
Puerto Vallarta's wealth of natural resources, ecological attractions and magnificent scenery make it an ideal place for outdoor recreation and adventure travel vacations. This exciting jeep safari was specifically designed to give adventurous explorers the opportunity to discover traditional "Old Mexico" villages in the Mexican Outback, as well as the Ecology and Wildlife found in the mountains and jungles of the Sierra Madres.
Cultural Encounters
Mexico is an ancient land full of legends, fascinating history, ancient cultures and respected traditions. To truly experience the spirit of the Mexican culture, and fully immerse yourself in its very essence, you need to travel beyond Puerto Vallarta and visit the remote villages and historical towns in the heart of this captivating country. Vallarta Adventures will take you there.
