If you are looking for a unique Puerto Vallarta excursion, our San Blas Tour combines nature and culture into one incredible day trip! If bird watching and wildlife viewing excites you, then La Tovara will be the highlight of your day. If you prefer culture, San Blas Nayarit will not disappoint with Spanish history dating back to the 1700's. If you love both, then this is definitely the tour for you!
Just two hours from Puerto Vallarta, you will find the fishing village of San Blas, Nayarit, home to La Tovara, an incredible unspoiled mangrove habitat. Here, in all but untouched marshland, you will take a guided panga boat tour. Your sharp-eyed naturalist guide will point out the vast variety of mangrove flora and fauna, including brightly colored tropical birds, turtles and even crocodiles swimming past.
After exploring the rich biodiversity of La Tovara, we will embark on a San Blas cultural tour. San Blas Nayarit was founded at the time of the Spanish conquest and has numerous historical and architectural points of interest. Your guide will walk you through the picturesque Our Lady of the Rosary Church and explore Fort Contaduria. And you will have time to explore the friendly streets of San Blas and stop in one of the many family-owned restaurants that specialize in the fresh seafood and other local products found in the region.
This La Tovara Safari Float and San Blas tour is the perfect mix of culture & ecotourism in Mexico. You get to explore not only an amazing off the tourist track nature reserve and crocodile sanctuary, but also the charm of one of Mexico’s earliest fishing villages and port cities.
