The ride
Mountain trails, then a surf town.
There are two ways to do a Sayulita ATV tour with Vallarta Adventures, and both follow the same pattern: a Polaris RZR into the Sierra Madre foothills, a lookout high above the bay, then free time in Sayulita. The private ATV Punta Mita & Sayulita is for your party only and takes about three hours; the shared Sayulita ATV Tour takes about five.
The trails climb dirt roads through hills and valleys to viewpoints over Banderas Bay, the Punta Mita peninsula and the Pacific, with a guide who talks about the region’s wildlife, history and culture. In Sayulita the helmets come off for murals, artisan boutiques, cafés and the town’s surf culture.
First the mountain trails, then Sayulita’s streets: two sides of the same stretch of coast.
Choose your ride
Two ways into the hills.

Our take
Founder, Villa Experience
“From a Punta Mita villa I suggest the private tour: your party only, about three hours, with the same mountain views and free time in Sayulita. Wear clothes you do not mind getting dusty.”
Founder, Villa Experience
Before you ride, a transfer from the villa to the start, and a private chef lunch when you are back, arranged by our concierge (the chef at additional cost).
Questions
Before you ask.
Where does the ATV tour start?
Vallarta Adventures confirms the meeting point when you book. The routes run in the Sierra Madre foothills and finish with free time in Sayulita; our concierge arranges the transfer from the villa.
Can we ride from the villa?
The tours run on Vallarta Adventures’ own off-road routes in the foothills, so the ride begins at the meeting point. Our concierge can arrange the transfer from the villa.
How long is it?
About three hours for the private tour and about five for the shared one, both with free time in Sayulita.
Is there a private ATV tour for Punta Mita guests?
Yes. ATV Punta Mita & Sayulita is private, for your party only. It climbs into the foothills for views over the Punta Mita peninsula, then stops in Sayulita.
