See Puerto Vallarta on Two Wheels – Easy as Falling Off a Bike

You remember what it was like learning to ride a bicycle ? pedal a couple of times then fall, pedal then fall. You kept after it until you got it right. And you know what they say about bicycles ? once you learn how to ride, you never forget. If they?re right, you should still have the cycling skills of an 8-year old. The weather is great, so why not abandon your villa rental Puerto Vallarta for a few hours and rent a two-wheeler?

Tour operators offer mountain-bike tours for riders of every skill level. If you haven?t been on a bike since you were 8, or if you just don?t enjoy the experience of catapulting down a mountainside at top speed, consider biking around Puerto Vallarta itself.

If you want to take the family on a ride that will leave everyone mostly intact, join BikeMex on their Rio Cuale tour. You?ll start riding through town and finish up along the banks of the Rio Cuale. This one takes off twice a day (except Sundays) and lasts about 4? hours. They provide the bicycle, the guide and the water; you bring the sunblock.

At the other end of the difficulty scale, the Killer Donkey ride will take you along old mining trails, up and down some pretty severe terrain. This one is for experienced, strong riders only. Really. No matter what tour you take, you can soothe your aching muscles in the hot tub when you get back to your villa Puerto Vallarta.
