PUERTO CAFE

Everyone knows Puerto Vallarta as the Mexican holiday destination full of all-inclusive resorts and luxury experiences. But what if you want to do things a little bit different?? We spent two weeks in Puerto Vallarta and were pleasantly surprised by the number of free and cheap things to see and do! We love slow, budget travel because it challenges you to get out of the "resort bubble" and experience what a place truly has to offer. We hope this guide inspires you to explore this beautiful coastal city on your own, without breaking the bank. Included sections in this guide: - Areas to stay - Links to budget and mid-range accommodations - Free + Cheap Things to Do - "Splurge" Activities - Nearby Day Trips - How to get around (public transit) - Cheap(ish) Restaurants Unlocking this guide gives you access for life so you will automatically receive any updates when we return to Puerto Vallarta or hear of additional recommendations from other travellers. Plus this guide is web- and mobile-friendly so you can save it to reference as you travel! We hope this guide provides everything you need to know to plan your own DIY trip to Puerto Vallarta! Tag us in your planning and travels so we can see your experiences in this amazing town! @EricandSarah_
