We are in the process of organizing a Canopy Tour for our wedding guests. The problem is, there are sooo many canopy tour companies in PV. Does anyone have any recommendations??
Thanks! Jackie

Well, I know Vallarta Adventures is supposed to be good - but I didn't go on it myself!

I would recommend finding out how many platforms they offer. When I went zip lining there were two companies for the same price. Turns out one was 7 platforms and the other was around 20!!! BIG difference!
Just something to think about!

Each time I've been to PV I take tours with Vallarta Adventures. Yes they did my wedding too, but that's why I was so comfortable with them.
The crew is outstanding and well trained to handle any emergency that may occur. I've had them physically wash vomit off of me when I could barely hold my head up. On the boat to our wedding 2 adults were seasick and one of the crew held both of the kids - one on each leg - the whole boat ride. They're just really nice.
But it sounds like that platform thing makes a difference so check into that too.

From my reviews of Puerto Vallarta and canopy tours, the one company that got the best reviews was Los Veranos. They are supposed to have more platforms and ziplines than any other company. Here is the link: Canopy Tours de los Veranos, Exciting Eco Tours in Puerto Vallarta

I had two groups do the canopy tour with Vallarta Adventures. They made an extra time for one of our groups since we had too many people for one group. They were great to work with and had a great crew. I don't know how the other companies are but our groups thoroughly enjoyed Vallarta Adventures Canopy tour.

I highly recommend the Los Veranos Canopy tour. The tour itself is located in the small village of Los Veranos which is about 40 minutes by bus south of Vallarta. The ride itself down the coast is spectacular. I think Los Veranos has the most lines and possibly the longest and tallest. The guides are fun and professional. They also have a nice place by the river to enjoy lunch/drinks and you can hold a snake or tarantula if you're in the mood for that.
I live in Vallarta and I consistently hear good things about this tour. I did it with my cousins and a friend in March and it was great!
