Puerto Vallarta RZR Tour to the Sierra

This RZR tour takes you into the Sierra Madre above Puerto Vallarta at the wheel of an all-terrain vehicle, on dirt tracks with wide views of the mountains. The listing gives a duration of 240 minutes, and the operator pitches it as an adrenaline-filled outing that works well with family.

The activity is based at Canopy River Park. There you collect your safety gear and the keys to your RZR (about 30 minutes for this stage), buckle your seatbelt and drive up the mountain. The route goes in search of the waterfalls of Vallarta, a stretch of about 20 minutes according to the itinerary, and ends at a hidden waterfall where you can refresh yourself and regain energy to continue the adventure.

At the end of the ride you can relax with a view of the Sierra Madre. A guided tour and roundtrip transportation from a meeting point are included, along with the RZR and safety gear. Tequila tasting is available, and the operator advises asking your park guide for information on the extra schedules.

Bring sunblock, sunglasses, a hat and a camera, and wear comfortable walking shoes and clothing. Food, beverages and pool access are not included, nor are photos, souvenirs and optional gratuities. The vehicle has a maximum weight of 400 kg (880 pounds).

The tour is not recommended for pregnant travelers, travelers with spinal injuries or those with poor cardiovascular health, and a moderate level of fitness is expected. Infants must sit on an adult's lap. The listing does not name the meeting point, so ask for it when you book.
