Imagine yourself gliding through the treetops observing life below as you swing from tree to tree! The lush emerald green tropical forests that surround Puerto Vallarta provide a biological paradise of rich diversity and a stunning profusion of tropical fauna. An approximate 1-hour scenic drive takes you to the canopy site where you will have a short orientation & safety briefing. Enjoy the opportunity to see this amazing world from a unique perspective as you glide from tree to tree and platform to platform using pulleys on horizontal traverse cables, sailing through the treetops of the forest canopy, and over the trails far below. Your journey takes you across 14 platforms situated between 10 and 90 feet above the ground. Expert guides assist you in this exciting journey through the different layers of the primitive wilderness from the time you leave the ground, until you rappel back down to the forest floor.

It really is a Jungle out there, and you have the opportunity to be guided through it! Enjoy a scenic drive south along the coastal highway to Mismaloya and from here you will head into the foothills of the mountains featuring some of the most exciting Jungle locations in the area. Experience first hand, the exuberant growth and lush vegetation that characterize this tropical forest as you discover brilliantly colored plants and flowers and local wildlife as you are guided through this exotic locale. The movie "Predator" was filmed here and you will understand why once you see the dense vegetation and absolute primitiveness of the area. You will have ample time to explore the surroundings, take part in the optional hike, swim in the natural pools formed by the river, and try the natural water slide. You will have the option of being dropped off downtown (return transport to the ship will be at your expense) or returning directly to the pier.
Puerto Vallarta is home to many talented artists ranging from painters, Jewelry designers, sculptors and craftsmen. Because of all of this artistic activity, Puerto Vallarta has the reputation of being one of Mexico's premier cultural hot spots. Your adventure begins with a short bus transfer to the Old town District, where the walking tour begins. Your guide will answer your questions and point out the highlights as you are guided through a few of the area's more eclectic galleries and shop in this characteristic section of town.
