Food and Drink Heading to Puerto Vallarta in late March. Any recommendations?? - Page 3

|Zach| · 02-13-2011, 03:51 PM

Shooting a wedding in Mexico next month and I have started some planning ever since we got the tickets. We will be mostly working during this time but will certainly have some time to do our own thing as well as a free extra day the family is letting us stay at their place.

We are gonna be working pretty hard so I doubt I will be up for any big intense excursions more relaxation than anything so if there are some cool places I should check out or restaurants to hit up let me know!

Thanks in advance for any help.

I notice that you still drive fast cars and still shoot...even though there are risks. Why is that?

Alright, maybe I have been reading to much about the violence in Mexico. Go, have fun, take lots of good pictures!

Sorry to ruin your thread Zach.

PV has provided for some good times. Outside of clubs, walk the malecon once, and try and dine at Señor Mr Pepe's in the hills.

the zoo is a great time. For $5 you buy a bag of veggies and can feed all the animals. You can get up close and personal too, the giraffes lean out and lick you, etc.

For $10 the wife and I were able to hold and play with jaguar cubs for about 10 minutes.

There is supposed to be a great little restaurant there called Teatro Limon, gourmet food in an intimate setting if thats what you'd like. We weren't able to fit it on though.

We did the catamaran tour to a secluded private beach where they put on a show called the Rhythm of the Night....it was fun. Ate dinner on the beach.

Malecon is fun for a night.

If you want to buy silver at a good price, look for a little shop called Poo's Barbara near the cathedral downtown. By far the nicest and cheapest we found.

Don't be afraid to ride the bus....we rode it out to the zoo as it's several miles south of town by the Barcelo resort.

Yeah, buses are really the best way to get around there. Way cheaper than cabs. I think that zoo is pretty new, actually, I've never been.

We took a boat ride over to Las Caletas, which was a private little beach, and was awesome. I'd recommend that, kayaking near the beach over there above manta rays might have been the highlight of our honeymoon.

I hear the water there is delicious.

You can actually drink the water there if you wish. The municipal system is very modern and clean.
