Enjoy a day of fun in the sun while learning about Puerto Vallarta's most famous points of interest. See how tequila is made, visit the filming location of a famous film, shop for local souvenirs, and enjoy lunch at a secluded beach.
Start with a scenic drive down the coastline to Puerto Vallarta's lush Botanical Gardens. Wander through the many terraces and admire tropical flowers, jungle trees, and colourful birds. Pick up a souvenir or try a local snack at the on-site restaurant.
Next, cruise down the southern coast to the historic El Baston Del Rey tequila factory. Learn a thing or two about how the finest tequilas are made and pick up a few bottles to take home. After, discover one of the best kept secrets of Puerto Vallarta, the secluded Mismaloya beach.
After lunch at Mismaloya, take a short hike out to a lookout point to snap a picture with the 15-foot iguana statue, erected as a tribute to the 1961 film Night of the Iguana that was filmed in this village. Afterwards, cool off with some body boarding or snorkelling at Los Arcos or just kick back with a cocktail at the beach.
