Gringo Gulch Cupola

So where is this charming neighborhood in Puerto Vallarta and how did it get its name?  Did you know it’s really on a hill and not in a gulch at all?  Who first lived here and why?  And how are Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, and John Huston connected with this area?  Guillermo Wulff, Mexico City engineer who brought the cupola to Vallarta construction, was their friend and instrumental in developing the architectural style of Vallarta.  Who was he and how did he get here?  Step into the past as you learn about this history on our Old Vallarta Architecture and History walking tour.  You will be fascinated with the stories and the beauty of the cobblestone streets and colonial villas, many now turned into boutique hotels like Hacienda San Angel.

Many of you told us you didn’t have time to do all our tours that were included in our earlier package so now we have taken some of the best of our tours and services and created a three-hour walking tour with lunch that will introduce you to the people, shops, products, and services that make Vallarta a delightful place to visit or live. You will visit some typical neighborhoods, meet owners of family-run shops and markets, and have the opportunity to purchase fresh produce, meats, cheeses, Mexican curios and art, and to savor street vendor’s offerings.  Access to our free professional consultations and free area real estate tours are also included.  This is a great way to immerse yourself and see what it’s like to live here.  Only $24.50 per person.  For more information go to our website:  www.learnvallarta.com or call us today.
