Zip-Lining in Mexico

Arrive in Puerto Vallarta where your guide will be awaiting you at the airport to transport you to your accommodations. After getting checked in at your hotel and settled in, enjoy a welcome meal with your guides and learn some basic Spanish to help you get around. Go for a stroll along Puerto Vallarta’s unique oceanfront boardwalk, Malecó, that also acts as an open-air museum. Spend the rest of the evening relaxing on the beach and taking in the beauty and tranquility of Puerto Vallarta as you prepare to study environmental sciences in this amazing land.

Wake up for breakfast with your guides and get ready for a fun-filled day of exploring your new home for the week! Join your guides on a walking tour of Puerto Vallarta and wander along the cobbled streets of the historic Old Town. Along the way, feel free to stop and taste local specialties from the various street vendors. Head over to the Church of Our Lady of Guadalupe which can be seen no matter where you are in the city for picturesque views of the city.

Don’t miss the sunset at Mirador Cerro de La Cruz where you will take a short hike, rewarding you with spectacular views over the city. Be sure to bring your camera and plenty of water! Enjoy the rest of the evening free to do as you wish whether it’s going on a booze tour or with your feet kicked up ocean-front.

Today is the long-awaited adventure of zip-lining in Puerto Vallarta! Get ready for an unforgettable experience where you’ll fly over the top of the mountains of Puerto Vallarta on zip-lines and marvel at the incredible views down below! After your adventure, head back to the city to share lunch with your guides. Spend the remainder of the afternoon sipping margaritas and working on your suntan. 

Today, get ready for another epic adventure exploring the mountains of the Sierra Madre on a guided horseback trek! Spend the day galavanting across this lush forest and learn about the spectacular flora and fauna all around from your knowledgeable guide while connecting with your personal horse. Wind down with a swim in the river before heading back to Puerto Vallarta where you will have the remainder of the evening free.

Today you will take a short drive away to the hipster surf town of Sayulita for an adventure-packed day of snorkeling and whale watching! Rather than staying in the town itself, catch a boat ride over to Islas Marietas to visit the national park boasting diverse fauna while you watch birds and native fish in their natural habitat. If it’s the right season, you just might get lucky and spot humpback whales! Ready to cool off? Spend some time snorkeling in the clear waters and exploring life under the sea. After the tour, head back to Sayulita to enjoy lunch and explore the town before heading back to Puerto Vallarta.

Enjoy an early breakfast with your local guides and brush up on your Spanish before departing to the magnificent colonial city of Guadalajara. Explore the Centro Historico (Historical Center) and discover the stunning cathedrals, busy street markets, and other specialties that make this city unique. For lunch, feast on the local favorite known as Tortas Ahogadas before heading to the gardens in Parque Colomos. Relax in the tranquil gardens and admire the stunning Japanese gardens to unwind after a busy day.

After one final breakfast in Mexico and any last-minute shopping or souvenir searching, your guides will transport you to the airport to catch your return flight home. ¡Adios!
