Join Antonio or Jose Antonio Garcia Rivas for an eight-hour escape from Puerto Vallarta. Shop for fresh produce, visit a tortilla maker, soak at Nuevo Ixtlan’s warm mineral pools, enjoy a grilled Mexican lunch, and finish with a beachside massage in Bucerias.

“Tony, the host, is easy to communicate with and arrived exactly on time. He shared knowledge of the local floral and fauna. And some history of the country and this area. The roads are unpaved and bumpy near the hot springs but Tony drove slowly and carefully so it was not a problem. It was a real Mexican experience and Tony's cooking was superb! Excellent value and the massage on the beach was icing on the cake!”
