Ziplining, Waterfalls, and Speedboat Tour in Puerto Vallarta

This adventure day in the Puerto Vallarta wilderness runs about 390 minutes and strings together a lot of activity: speedboat rides, off-road trucking, muleback trekking, ziplining, waterfall rappelling and a Roller Coaster Zipline. The operator says the experience has appeared on National Geographic and Travel Channel and won TripAdvisor’s Travelers’ Choice “Best of the Best” award five years in a row.

The tour is designed for adrenaline seekers. The operator describes it as a mix of extreme thrills and nature, with more variety in one outing than most tours offer. Transportation is part of the adventure: the round trip is by speedboat and 4x4 truck, and the terrain is rocky, so expect to get wet.

After the circuit of ziplines, mule trek and waterfall rappelling, the day culminates in a record-breaking waterslide, which the operator promotes as the finale. Cameras are not allowed during the circuit for safety reasons, but a photo service is available on site for an extra fee.

Included are the round trip by speedboat and 4x4 truck, safety gear, use of lockers at the basecamp, towels and snacks. Not included are lunch, hotel pickup and drop-off, an access fee, port fees (to be paid in cash at the port), gratuities and personal tour photos.

Preparation matters. Wear shorts and hiking or tennis shoes, and bring a change of dry clothes and shoes, suntan lotion, mosquito repellent, a towel and a sweatshirt. The operator recommends a high level of physical fitness.

Restrictions are firm: minimum age 8 years with no exceptions, maximum weight 260 lbs / 118 kg with no exceptions. People with heart disease or back, spine or knee problems cannot take part, and it is not recommended for pregnant travelers. The operator says this option is not suitable for cruise ship passengers because of time conflicts with its local schedule. The listing gives no meeting point, so confirm the details at booking.
