5.00Travel from the heart of Puerta Vallarta into the nearby hills, following the coastal road as you make your way to the Puerta Vallarta Botanical Gardens...a must see! the gardens are incredible with so much to see. Our host Jimmy was wonderful, knowledgeable and made our time in the gardens very enjoyable. While at the gardens I highly recommend that you end your visit with lunch and a cold drink at the Hacienda de Oro Restaurant & Bar on the grounds of the gardens...the food was absolutely amazing...ask for a table on the patio overlooking the river valley and surrounding mountains. The food was was wonderful, the maragrita of the day was one of a kind and the coconut cake is the best I have every had!

5.00Our knowledgeable guide made the experience so much more than a simple botanical garden tour! We met downtown where our guide gave a little tutorial on using the public bus system before we boarded one of those public buses for our trip to the gardens. Along the way, he spoke a bit on the history of the gardens and what we could expect to see. It was a pleasant walk through various plant habitats. We booked the half-day tour and joined our guide and the other tourists for lunch at the restaurant within the botanical gardens, some of whom were continuing the tour after lunch.
A Guide Makes a Difference

5.00My 1/2 day tour of the botanical garden was so much more than I expected. The garden is huge but very well organized. You will see flowers and plants that you’ve never seen beautifully displayed. However, what makes the trip special is the guide. Jimmy was so engaging from the bus ride to the garden to the end of the tour when he gave me several options for continuing my time there. He shared information about the gardens, Puerto Vallarta, and the history of the region that was fascinating. I had considered wandering the garden without a guide but doing the tour with an experienced guide was such an enriching experience!

5.00This was a very interesting tour. Jimmy was a great guide and was very knowledgeable about the gardens, as well as Mexican history and the local area. I really enjoyed seeing all the beautiful flowers and the great variety of colorful birds (including hummingbirds and a peacock). If you have time, eat at the restaurant and walk down to the river. I definitely recommend it.
Great day at the Gardens

5.00Jimmy was great; very nice, very knowledgeable. He knew a lot about the history of the area and had an excellent way to draw you into the stories. He didn't know as much about the flowers and plants as I was expecting but was very open about that from the beginning and would regularly check his guide notes to make sure he didn't miss anything. It was very informative and much better than wandering through without a guide. Thanks so much Jimmy!
Fun, and enlightening
