Canopy
Tours is an exciting adventure situated high in the
jungle's treetops. We are located in one of the lushest areas
of Puerto Vallarta - Las Juntas y Los Veranos. Experience a
once-in-a-lifetime chance to zip from tree to tree and take
pleasure in the wonderful sights and sounds of our magnificent
jungle.
Snorkeling
The Bay of Banderas abounds with sea life offering wonderful
opportunities to snorkel in clear, warm water. Many species
of colorful fish, sea turtles, huge mantra rays, dolphins, and
every winter, humpback whales visit. Popular sites include the
Los Arcos Marine Park and the Marietas Islands. Many tour boats
leave the Marina daily and provide everything you need for an
exciting day on and in the water.
Scuba
diving The diversity of sea life and the structure of
the Bay itself will delight the most seasoned divers. Equipment
can be rented or you may bring your own; tours leave daily and
include dive masters on each boat. If you've always wanted to
try scuba diving take a course in your hotel pool! Nearly all
the major hotels offer lessons.
Hiking There are a number of companies that will
organize a day's hike based upon your level of fitness and where
you want to go. Jungle hikes, desert treks; some combine walking
and biking. And remember, some of the streets in Vallarta provide
challenging
hikes without even leaving the city!
Horseback riding Gentle, calm horses can be rented
at a number of ranches or on the streets of Zona Romantica.
Guides will lead you up mountains, along rivers and streams
(with breaks to cool off in the crystal clear rushing water),
though canopies of jungle overgrowth to small ranchitos in the
hills. For an hour or for an entire day, your ride will leave
you with a delightful new memory of Puerto Vallarta.
Biking For beginners, intermediate
bikers and those who are not happy until they've ridden uphill
for miles and miles will not be disappointed in the excellent
quality of the machines and the expert guides available in Vallarta.
Helmets and gloves are provided,
as is instruction on how to use your mountain bike. Interesting
and varied terrain awaits you either with a guide or on your
own.
Swimming
The warm waters of the Bay of Banderas entice swimmers from
all over the world. Many hotels have roped off areas that make
the bay even safer to swim in. For a completely different experience
try swimming in the deep pools found in all the rivers that
empty into the Bay of Banderas. So cool and refreshing; some
even come with waterfalls!
Fishing
Marlin, Dorado (mahi-mahi), Red Snapper, rooster fish, tuna
and many more varieties of fish can be caught in our bay either
from a simple “panga“ or
an elegantly turned out sport fisher. There is also bass fishing
in a lake just a few miles south of the city. All equipment,
bait etc., is included.
Sailing Many sailboats are
available for tours and provide fishing and snorkeling equipment,
food and drink for small groups or for private charter. Some
boats sail north
to quiet secluded coves while others opt for the south coast.
A beautiful, different way
to see Puerto Vallarta.
