We spent a wonderful few hours with Fabian doing this little gem of an excursion. The communication from Fabian right from the start was excellent. We made arrangements to meet... read more at a specific location and time and everything went as planned. Fabian met us and we rode the bus to the town that houses the butterfly sanctuary. We walked a short distance to the sanctuary where we got a history of how everything was set-up. Fabian spent a lot of time explaining everything once we went inside the butterfly house, talking about the host plants and all the processes they go through to protect the butterflies. We saw eggs and caterpillars and, lots of butterflies, of course. After a very personal tour, we got to each release a butterfly that Fabian and his team nurtured from egg to butterfly. It was amazing! We then got to continue to walk through the butterfly house on our own. Once we were done in the butterfly house, we headed out to meet Fabian at the beautiful pond on the property. We enjoyed time with ducks that Fabian had lovingly raised and look at the other wildlife on the property while we enjoyed water and snacks. Fabian then took us back to catch the bus back to Puerto Vallarta, making sure we got back to our starting point. Fabian was friendly, engaged and genuinely interested in us and our family. We would highly recommend this tour! You will learn a lot and spend a relaxing few hours enjoying a little known part of Puerto Vallarta!

Krys was very knowledgeable and passionate about the facility and tour which made it very enjoyable for us and our 9 month old son. The sanctuary is a fascinating... read more place and would love to come back and do the cocoa tour with him. Krys was also generous, making sure we stayed hydrated and offered us snacks as well as hired a driver for us because I had limited cell service to call an Uber myself. Thank you for a great time!!!

I took a taxi from Zona Romantica, and arrived there, the taxi waited for me until I was finished. It was 270 pesos to enter and have the tour, well... read more worth it, and I received wonderful explanations by Fabian, who is very passionate and knowledgeable! I had tears in my eyes to see some of the butterflies (so incredibly beautiful) but also the care put into this place, the growing of the special plants needed by the butterflies, which differs for each butterfly. He showed me the eggs and the caterpillars on the plants and all the challenges they face to become butterflies. At the end I was given the opportunity to release a new born butterfly into the garden, which was quite wonderful. It was a great joy to have experienced this and Fabian was great, he really cares, and so should we all. There are building condo's right next to this area, and destroying habitat....this place is a real garden of Eden...worth a visit for sure!
