  I did this tour with a group of friends on my last full day in Puerto Vallarta, and what a serene and peaceful way to end our trip. Fabian is... read more an absolute gem and has so much knowledge about each butterfly and can point out the tiniest caterpillar and know which one is which based on the plant the caterpillar was on. We also were lucky enough to see a butterfly emerge from its cocoon during our visit.

I hope this sanctuary is around for many more years for those who want to learn more about nature and really get into the nature of the area. Thanks for sharing your passion with myself and my friends in 2021

  Wonderful and informative visit to the Mariposario Jardin Magico! We booked the private transport and tour on their website, and they picked us up at our Alta Vista condo in... read more a lovely and comfy sedan for the 40-minute drive. The driver, Guillermo, waited while we took the 2-hour tour of the garden with the owner, Fabian. It was a warm day with not much breeze, and the garden has a filtered sun fabric top, so bring a hand fan and water. Fabian‘s passion and knowledge of butterflies is outstanding. You will learn things you never knew, see things you’ve never seen, take dozens of photos, and even release a butterfly or two while making a wish (and getting a little emotional). The package includes door-to-door transport but we opted for our driver to drop us at a restaurant on the way back instead, and took an Uber home. Recommend 100%! Kids welcome too!
