We have 6 meeting points strategically located for you to choose the one closest to your hotel or place of lodging. When booking the tour you can choose the one that suits you.
We will begin our journey along the impressive southern coast of Puerto Vallarta, driving along the Horcones canyon to the world famous Vallarta Botanical Garden. From there, the adventure begins as you venture through the garden paths, greenhouses and exhibits to explore and cultivate in the art of botany. All our visitors will taste their food in the magnificent restaurant “Hacienda del Oro” with generous portions of authentic Mexican cuisine highlighting some of the plants that were addressed during the tour. Finally, you will have free time to walk around the garden to your liking, perform activities such as swimming in the crystal clear waters of the mountain river that flows through the forest reserve, taking photographs or relaxing inside the farm on the observation deck.
There is nothing like the Vallarta Botanical Garden, and its new “Botanical Delights Tour and Culinary Adventure”.
