The Experience

Before You Go

Arrive hydrated and fed

Eat a light meal before the tour and drink water—ziplines demand steady energy and guides will expect you alert for safety briefings.

Wear closed-toe shoes with grip

Trail approaches and platforms can be slick; trainers or hiking shoes keep feet secure during launches and walks.

Check the weight and health rules

Maximum weight is about 242 lb and the tour isn’t recommended for pregnant travelers or those with spinal/heart issues—confirm before booking.

Bring sun protection and a small bag

A hat under the helmet, sunscreen, and a compact daypack for camera, ID, and motion-sickness meds make the day smoother.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Ask guides to stop at a viewpoint above the river for unobstructed valley photos
  • Taste a blanco and a reposado side-by-side to notice local distillation differences during the tasting

Wildlife

  • White-tailed deer
  • Tropical birds such as jays and woodpeckers

Conservation Note

Operators usually limit platform footprints and follow established trails to reduce erosion; visitors should pack out trash and avoid removing vegetation or agave samples.

The valley routes near Puerto Vallarta served as local corridors between coastal settlements and interior ranches; agave cultivation in Jalisco shaped the region’s economy and cultural rituals.
