Puerto Vallarta: Zipline Canopy & Jorullo Bridge Walk Tour

Summary

Zip through lush puerto vallarta then cross jorullo bridge for wild views

You’ll fly over Puerto Vallarta’s jungle canopy on eight ziplines, cross the swaying Jorullo Bridge with wild valley views, and finish with a local tequila tasting. Roundtrip transportation and a guide are included — expect laughs, adrenaline, and maybe even new friends by the end.

What’s the experience like?

Ever wondered if you’d actually scream on a zipline? I found out in Puerto Vallarta, somewhere between the fourth and fifth line, when the jungle air hit my face and I realized my legs were shaking — but in a good way. We met our guide, Luis, at the pickup spot in Zona Hotelera Norte (he had this easy laugh that made everyone relax right away). The drive out was bumpy and full of chatter, some nervous, some excited. You could smell the earth after last night’s rain — kind of sharp, almost sweet.

The first zipline was higher than it looked from below. Luis double-checked our harnesses and cracked a joke about “flying lessons.” I gripped the cable so hard my knuckles hurt, but after that first whoosh — honestly, it felt like flying — I stopped worrying. There are eight lines in total. On one of them, you can see the river glinting far below; someone ahead of me yelled something in Spanish that made us all laugh (I still don’t know what it meant). Water stations were set up along the way — cold water never tasted so good under that sun.

Then came Jorullo Bridge. It’s long — longer than I expected — and when you’re halfway across you can feel it sway just a little beneath your feet. The view is wild: green everywhere, with distant mountains hiding behind clouds. I caught myself holding my breath for no reason at all. At the end we tried local tequila (I tried to say “salud” properly; Luis grinned but didn’t correct me). The ride back was quieter — tired arms, happy faces. If you’re thinking about a day trip ziplining in Puerto Vallarta with a bridge walk thrown in… well, I’m still thinking about that view.
