  We were so happy to have discovered the Mariposario in Puerto Vallarta. I have been traveling to PV for the past 13 years and this was truly one of the... read more best experiences I have had there. It's a short drive out of the center of town but absolutely worth it. Me, my wife and our 10 year old son learned so much from Fabian. He was very kind, he answered any questions we had and truly made us feel welcome in the space that he and Chris have created. The two of them were so nice that we didn't want to leave. We literally could have spent the day their chatting with them. However, we left with a wealth of new knowledge. Even now several weeks since our visit the Mariposario comes up in conversation frequently. I highly recommend a trip there to anyone who is visiting Puerto Vallarta. It should be a part of one's journey. Job Well Done Gentlemen! We will surely return upon our next visit later this year.
