Sign up for a tequila tasting tour
If you’re on vacation in Puerto Vallarta with your significant other, a tequila tasting session is an absolute must. Mexico’s state of Jalisco is the only place in the world where authentic tequila is produced as the beverage must be distilled here to not be considered a mezcal. Luckily, this means that a vast range of tequila tours and tastings are available throughout town. You can opt for a traditional tour where an expert will explain and prepare local tequilas, or you can sign up for a chic mixology class to make some fun tequila-based cocktails! Who doesn’t like a frozen margarita on vacation?
There’s also the option of embarking on an excursion to the towns of Toriles and Tequila to spend a day exploring Aztec ruins and mysterious buildings. A professional guide will explain the interesting history of the towns, traditional tequila distillery techniques and, of course, the authentic Mexican way to consume a tequila shot. A little Dutch courage never hurt anyone - who knows what romantic secrets could be revealed after a few tequilas?
Go horse riding on the beach
Straight out of a romance movie, a horse riding trip offers the perfect opportunity for you and that special someone to connect with nature. A typical horseback tour in Puerto Vallarta will take you through the Sierra Madre mountains and the tropical rainforest, before rounding off on a beautiful pristine beach. You’ll come across charming villages, dazzling rivers and incredible panoramic views of the region. The route is done in quiet open spaces and, along the way, a guide will happily offer information about the local flora and fauna. Whether you’re enjoying a first date or celebrating many years together, this magical horseback trip is the ideal romantic activity!
