Things to do . . .
What to do in Vallarta? You can pretty well take your choice of just about anything from bungee jumping or parasailing all the way to going to Church on Sunday morning. We have any number of outdoor activities, great fishing, diving, sailing, golf, jungle canal tours, historic and cultural tours, tours to the country, tequila tours, tours by night and tours by air. Check with your concierge or your tour rep to get the best activities for you, your budget, and your lifestyle. I’ve selected some of the more popular activities and they’re shown here.
