Ride Sierra Madre trails, swim at a waterfall, make tortillas, and taste tequila on a private three-hour ATV tour from Puerto Vallarta.
“The ATVing was awesome! Super fun to ride around and see gorgeous views of the area and a really fun experience. However, the majority of the trip is stopping at the tequila tour and the "waterfall." At the tequila tour they give you a tasting of 3 tequilas and 3 agave liquors (but they call them tequila).

“The tour guide, Giovanni was fantastic! He was so knowledgeable about the area and so friendly. His English was really good, and he was super fun and accommodating. He really made the experience even better. The waterfalls are beautiful with many different pools to explore. Definitely bring water shoes and go all the way to the top where there is a walking bridge, cave, zip line, and a waterfall you can swim underneath and stand behind.
