Your Puerto Vallarta horseback riding shore excursion starts with a 10-minute taxi ride from your cruise ship port to the Hacienda Palma Real, an authentic Mexican hacienda, where you'll be matched up with a horse that suits your riding ability. Designed for both advanced and beginner riders, this Puerto Vallarta horseback riding shore excursion is suitable for everyone.
Riding along the Mascota River, you'll pass through quaint little villages and admire the local vegetation of the Mexican countryside. Ride along dusty trails and past a wide assortment of trees, including mango and banana plantations that flourish in the region of Jalisco. The sounds of the Mexican countryside will guide you all the way to a roaring waterfall. Don't just stand there – hop in for a refreshing swim (if weather permits).
The trail back to the ranch offers spectacular mountain views. Back at the ranch, you'll be served a typical Mexican lunch with an open bar! This is the perfect way to unwind and enjoy the views of the breathtaking Sierra Madre mountain range.
