About

This off-road side by side (Automatic) type jungle adventure in Puerto Vallarta is the best way to get a taste of Mexican culture & capture the breathtaking views of Puerto Vallarta’s natural beauty. On a fully automatic side by side you will have room for up to two passengers so your family and friends can stay together. You will pass through quaint Mexican villages and local neighborhoods on the way through the jungle. Magnificent broad vistas become ever more spectacular as you wind your way up through the rugged Sierra Madre mountains.

The first stop on your tour up the mountain is at a jungle bar in a beautiful setting with crystal clear spring fed pools and a seasonal waterfall. You can just sip a nice refreshing margarita or take a swim, or both or, just enjoy the experience of being in the jungle.

From there you will venture back through the jungle to a plateau where you will enjoy breath taking views of the area and surrounding mountains. You will be able to see much of the local fauna and wildlife. It is not uncommon to see Macaw parrots flying across the blue sky. While here you will have the opportunity to learn about the process of making tequila. You can also sample locally made tequila as well as unique flavored tequila’s made in the traditional way that are not available for purchase outside of Mexico.

A short fun ride from there and you will arrive at Moro Paraiso sitting on the banks of the beautiful Rio Cuale. Here you will be able to eat lunch and enjoy some of the most authentic Mexican food in the area (food and drink not included). This restaurant with its remote location on the Rio Cuale is truly a favorite among the locals. Paraiso means paradise and as its name implies it truly is a paradise. A fun ride back to Unique will conclude your Unique Puerto Vallarta side by side adventure.
