Local & Authentic
Where the people who live here eat
Vallarta is eaten outside the tourist strip: the neighbourhoods where kitchens have been opening for decades, the stands that only appear at night, and raicilla, the sierra's spirit that barely leaves the state. You sleep among neighbours, not among guests.

What to do
Experiences that sit well with this trip.
Malecón & Old Town Art Walk
The seafront sculpture collection, the cobbled streets of the Zona Romántica and the galleries that made Vallarta a working art town rather than a resort with paintings. Walked in the late afternoon, when the light and the city are both at their best.

Raicilla & Taco Route
Raicilla is the agave spirit of this part of Jalisco — distilled in the sierra long before anyone outside the state had heard of it. Tastings alongside the taco stands locals actually queue for, which are rarely the ones with the signage.
