|  | |  | There is so much more to Mexico than sun, sea and sand! Mexico is a land steeped in history, customs and ancient cultures, but traveling to remote villages and out-of-the-way locations is not always easy. For this reason, Vallarta Adventures created its Cultural Encounters series of tours.
 Our cultural adventures are designed for travelers who want to venture beyond Mexico's beach vacation destinations in order to explore the remote villages and historical towns in Mexico. Puerto Vallarta's central location provides easy access and short flights to many fascinating destinations, and our specialized land and air adventures are designed to let you discover the more remote areas of Mexico - without taking a week to get there!
 Discover a 17th century mining town on our San Sebastian By Land or Colonial Treasures air tours, experience the everyday customs and traditions of authentic Mexican town life on a Journey through Mexico, or take a full day excursion exploring the historically rich treasures and Shopping in Guadalajara.
 The more adventurous can visit one of the oldest and best preserved Indian cultures in the Americas, the Huichol Indians, experience face-to-face wildlife encounters on our Mexcaltitán Tour, or enjoy a three day journey to Mexico's Copper Canyon. We also offer regularly scheduled flights to the exclusive and romantic hideaway of Costalegre, or you can create your own itinerary on a Private Air Charter.
 At Vallarta Adventures, we don't believe all of our travelers are reminiscent of Indiana Jones. We believe that exploring should be a safe, easy and comfortable experience. Cultural Encounter Land Tours are conducted in modern mini vans, so you can enjoy breathtaking scenery and close-up views of rural Mexican life in air-conditioned comfort.
 Our turbo prop Cessna Caravans accommodate up to 14 passengers and are specifically designed for low-speed aerial tours to rugged and remote regions. All of our airplane charters are crewed by highly experienced, professional pilots and there's never a moment when you won't feel completely safe in their skilled hands. The oversized, flat windows facilitate undistorted photo opportunities, and we adhere to the strictest international airline standards.
 No matter which of our very diverse Cultural Encounters you choose, you can rest assured that Vallarta Adventure will make the journey an unforgettably enjoyable adventure. Our guides have in-depth knowledge of the landscape, culture, and history of the places we explore, and they are definitely the most resourceful, tireless, and entertaining bunch of people you will ever encounter! | |
