North of Puerto Vallarta, near Sayulita on the scenic north coast of Banderas Bay, lies Monkey Mountain, the largest hill south of Punta Mita and the area's largest and most visible landmark. This hike takes us to the top of Monkey Mountain (Cerro el Mono), where we will have a spectacular 360' view of the beaches, coastline, and seemingly endless vistas of the Riviera Nayarit.

We will begin our excursion with a one-hour semi-shaded uphill hike through the winding jungle trails of Monkey Mountain. On our quest for the summit, we will encounter various exotic birds, butterflies, lizards, and tropical trees. Your naturalist guide will teach you about the flora and fauna of the area as well as the natural ecosystem of Puerto Vallarta while enjoying the true essence of nature as you walk.

The hike was great, if a bit short. Our guide Brandon was excellent. He helped my mother down a couple of steep and slippery sections, was funny, and spoke great English. We liked having our snacks and water carried for us. Unfortunately we all didn’t eat the orange because it was bad. Otherwise an excellent trip. Thanks to our guide for doing a good job!

The experience with this company is ABSOLUTELY amazing. Even when there were a few minor incidents caused by factors beyond control and human errors, I was EXTREMELY impressed with how resourceful and creative the company was, in accommodating my needs and making things work. Quality of service was impeccable, and partner companies were very well-selected. The customer service is AMAZING, always there to assist in a very prompt manner, with anything requested by the customer. I STRONGLY recommend this company to anybody in the Puerto Vallarta area looking to make a memorable holiday out of the time spent in the place.

Our hiking tour of Monkey Mountain was great. Eric, our tour guide, was very knowledgeable about the area and the plants/animals and provided us with a very fun and educational tour.
