Me sentí muy feliz de tener la oportunidad de visitar este jardín de la jungla a las afueras de San Pancho para la excursión de la mañana. Nos reunimos en… read more Las Lomas y nos acompañaron otros cuatro viajeros para nuestro recorrido matutino por el hermoso…jardín tendido y creado durante más de 20 años por el tío José de Vicente. El recorrido estuvo lleno de información sobre el área, las plantas indígenas, los árboles y los usos medicinales, y fue una introducción perfecta a la jungla de esta área que de otra manera no habríamos visto. También fue bueno ver que esta enseñanza con amor y respeto por la naturaleza se transmite de generación en generación, ya que ese día fuimos acompañados por el hijo de Vicente. Me alegró poder ayudar a apoyar el hermoso trabajo que realizan y animar a todos a visitar este lugar especial. Más
This easy, beautiful garden tour and jungle walk is an amazing glimpse into a balanced, yet fragile eco system. The caretaking and preservation of these garden trails is a true… read more labour of love. We learned the history of the garden’s humble beginnings and much about the co-existence that occurs in a natural habitat. Highly recommended.
What a wonderful way to spend the day. The Jungle Gardens are a natural preserve that will delight the senses! Not too remote – but a world apart… read more from the hustle of tourists in the Riviera Nayarit region. I have walked the Gardens on many occasions since 2010, and the jungle there never ceases to amaze me. Alejandro and Jose are always so accommodating. If you take the tour, there’s plenty to learn, They love sharing their knowledge of the biodiversity there and in the region. Got a camera? BRING IT. There is no end to the boundless beauty you will find at the Jungle Gardens.
We spent the afternoon with Vincente walking the path up and down the botanical reserve. Warning – there is a lot of steps but the pace is slow and the… read more footing is good. If you have a walking stick, you’ll be glad you brought it along. We did not need long pants, long sleeve shirts, bug spray or hats as it is not buggy season. Dress appropriately. Do wear runners. We appreciated the attention that Vincente and his uncle gave us and so included a gratuity.
During this month, there are few flowers in bloom, which is disappointing, however we were taught that great importance is given to keeping the reserve natural and not force blooming the plants with fertilizer, etc. Will go back in a different season to see these plants blooming when they are supposed to. There is a nursery where there are a number of orchids and other plants I. Bloom so you can enjoy the colours.
