Explore the trails throughout the Puerto Vallarta Botanical Gardens accompanied by an expert guide. Covering 8 hectares, the collections exhibit plants from a dry tropical forest biome as well as exotic plant species from around the world. These Gardens were created with the aim of exhibiting and conserving rare plants from Mexico and the world in general, as well as the native plant biodiversity of the region in particular.   The conservation and propagation of orchids is the most important of the Garden’s missions. These orchids can be found in the trees all over the grounds and in the “Holstein House of Orchids and Vanilla”. Other notable collections include oaks, bromeliads, agaves, and wild palms. Wander along the numerous walking trails that will take you through both preserved wilderness forests and the display gardens.   Following the visit to the Botanical Gardens, you and your group will visit a Tequila Distillery, where you’ll learn all about the process of making tequila and enjoy a free tasting. Finish your tour with a visit to an organic coffee factory typical of the region.
