Ride along on some of the best cared for horses, with excellent guides in one of the most gorgeous jungle areas of Puerto Vallarta.

We'll pick you up at the meeting point closest to your hotel and drive you to Rancho El Charro, in the rural village of Playa Grande, nestled on the banks of the Pitillal River at the foot of the Sierra Madre mountains.

Enjoy a continental breakfast, then mount one of our well-trained animals specially selected for your level of riding skill.

Upriver your guide will identify the tropical trees, plants and wildlife a long the trail. You will visit a small waterfall in a jungle arroyo and later return to the river, a great place for a swim! Continuing your ride you arrive at a mountain lookout point with a magnificent view of the bay and town below. Surrounded by lush tropical vegetation, you continue to a rustic jungle restaurant.

The meal is authentic Mexican cooking: barbecue and charcoal-broiled meats accompanied by interesting salsas and side dishes such as cactus salad, charro beans, jocoque, sour cream and handmade tortillas! Enjoy soft drinks or beer, then top it off with baked bananas with honey as a special treat for dessert.

The ride and the lunch are a great way to get away for a while on an unforgettable mountain trail ride. Children Welcome!
