Overview

Join our university educated guide for an unforgettable cultural journey that will leave you feeling enriched and deeply connected to Mexico’s traditions - especially those surrounding Day of the Dead. As you explore Puerto Vallarta’s oldest existing cemetery, you’ll hear captivating stories of the families and traditions who helped shape the city, bringing history to life in a way that feels both personal and profound. Vibrant Day of the Dead inspired murals will surround you with color and meaning, while the guide’s insights blend folklore, history, and symbolism to spark reflection and wonder. You’ll also visit a fascinating shrine tied to one of the fastest‑growing spiritual occult movements in the Americas, adding depth to your understanding of local beliefs. The experience concludes with a stroll down the charming “Main Street” of the 5 de Diciembre neighborhood and the lively atmosphere of the neighborhood market, with its fresh produce, spices, fish, and tortilla factory.
