We all loved the tour! Walking through the jungle with our knowledgeable guide Vincente explaining all the flora and fauna of the area. Meeting Jose who takes so much pride… read more in the tending of this beautiful area. We were early for the orchids but that didn’t matter to us at all. So nice to see people caring about the earth and natural surroundings. it was an easy pick up in San Pancho and only 10 minutes up the road through a bush trail. Being from northern Ontario this was an easy ride for us and the trail was an easy 1km. No problem for my grandson who is five. I would definitely recommend this tour for anyone in the area. Was the quiet I needed since I love being close to nature and just the noise from the figs dropping from the trees, birds etc. Thank you all for the hard work and pride put in to such a beautiful area!!

  I will say getting here was a little dicey. We traveled up to the meeting place from San Pancho which was about 10 minutes or so North. The meeting place… read more is not marked. You can follow it with a map and still feel lost. We drove around the area and about 15 minutes after the meeting time we were greeted by our host. We jumped into his old Ford Expedition and honestly at first were a little concerned.

From there though, things were great. We drove about 15 minutes on a steep beat up mountain road. Our host had his dog following the whole time running behind the SUV which was hilarious. He also joined us on the tour walk and ran alongside on the way home as well.

As for the tour, we had a great time. It was just the two of us and our host. We were about 2 weeks early for all the blooms so there was not as many flowers around as we would like, but still plenty to see. Dozens of varieties, trees, bugs, and some great views of the ocean.

Our host truly loves what he does and it shows. There is a lot of pride here and it shows. The tour did not last as long as advertised. I would say from meet up to drop off it was only about 2 hours and advertised as 3.

Bring bug spray. My wife and I had some but still got A LOT of bites. Dress for the area. Most of it is under the canopy but you spend some time out of it as well which is much hotter.

A great experience and we are happy we got to do it.

  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 is one of the most fantastic experiences I ever had. In Mexican paradise, obviously. I visited Lo de Perla Jungle Garden and found a large variety of regional orchids… read more and hundreds of different plants, including cacti growing on pyramids overlooking the sea, as well…Más

  Aquí está nuestro texto para que lo revisen, está bien, lo publicaré. Ecoturismo Lo de Perla Jungle Garden. Pasamos una tarde agradable tomando este paseo preestablecido a través de… read more un área de selva preservada en enero de 2019.  Los arreglos se hacen fácilmente en línea….Tuvimos un tour privado con un guía local que hablaba buen inglés. Nos encontramos justo al lado de la autopista en Los Lomas (a 5 millas de San Pancho). Vincente nos recogió en su jeep y nos aventuramos lentamente en unos 3 km por un camino de tierra muy accidentado. Vincente explicó los esfuerzos para preservar esta hermosa área de la selva y sus esfuerzos de horticultura para cultivar orquídeas. Caminamos por un sendero durante aproximadamente 1 km mientras aprendíamos sobre los árboles, la historia de la zona y el trabajo con las orquídeas. La caminata no fue difícil, con muchas paradas para descansar. Disfrutamos del entorno tranquilo y natural de Lo de Perla. El trabajo que se realiza aquí para la preservación natural es tan importante para el hábitat de los jaguares y otras especies nativas. Muy recomendable en cualquier momento para todas las edades. Más
