What people are saying about Puerto Vallarta

A must see and do combo activities extravaganza. Polite and helpful guides, beautiful Horseback ride through the river to a waterfall with plenty of great places for pictures and under tree-lined rock-river jungle, family friendly and lunch at the end was delicious. We also ziplined through the camp above the river on 7 different cable lines, super fun. The ATV our tour through quaint, cobblestone town, fields and on a main road was exhilarating! Highly recommend and please tip the awesome crews.

MARGOT was very helpful at the center . I was very impressed that even when I was late arriving because I made a mistake on which ranch i was going to . One ranch contacted the other and arranged for transportation . My guide PEDRO was a very good horseman and spoke very good english . He explained the history of the ranch and the area as we rode . The trails were very nice and relaxing . The only bad thing about the ride was it ended . But then I can always ride all day ...

LOVED this combo experience with horseback riding, Ziplining and ATV riding. Don't expect "usa quality" of equipment etc - but the whole experience is definitely delightful! Highly recommend for couples/families with or without younger children. The drinks afterwards and the food were AMAZING and so were the guides all along! My daughter and I enjoyed every minute of this 3-combo experience!

Very well organised, pick up was on time and reliable. The ranch was excellent, horses where immaculate, well trained and calm. We had tequila tasting which was fabulous and entertaining. Food was very good. We saw other wild life at the ranch which was a good experience.

The guides we very nice. The horses were very well trained and looked like they were taken good care of. They also let us run on the beach as fast as could! The tequila guy was very entertaining. Good fun!!
