Review of Puerto Vallarta’s jungle zip-line tour, with eight lines, mountain views, tequila tasting, practical tips, costs, and honest drawbacks.

“We chose the half day zip line tour with a pickup in Zona Romántica. It’s about a 30 minute ride to the park from there. Then instructions & your group gets going! We did 8 zips. We thought the hiking in btw each zip was moderate to strenuous as it’s uphill. We are active & in our 50’s & 60’s and got along just fine. I was a tad nervous but the guides were AWESOME / safe / careful. Once we were done, we had maybe 1.5 hours until transportation back to town. So we ordered drinks & chatted with fellow travelers and just enjoyed the atmosphere. We chose not…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 76 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $39

Review of Puerto Vallarta’s waterfall hike, with jungle trails, river swimming, guide tips, transport details, costs, and honest drawbacks.

“I liked the reasonable price of this tour, which was probably made possible by using public transportation. The guide was a nice young man but if you are expecting to be entertained and Informed about PV you will probably be disappointed. One in my group was also disappointed by the trail, which in most places is a narrow cement road also used by horses and ATVs. It didn't help that we went in June, when the foliage is not lush, but that's not the company's fault. The pool is refreshing to swim in and many visitors jumped off surrounding rock cliffs. Know that the tour provides zero water and snacks.…”
