San Sebastian Tour from Puerto Vallarta

Nestled in the heart of the Sierra Madre Mountains, San Sebastian's remote location and historic appeal have made it one of Mexico's last great getaways. As the road weaves through the mountains, you'll enjoy fantastic scenery and typical scenes of rural Mexican life, making the journey both breathtaking and relaxing.

Over the years, the town's population fluctuated wildly as gold and silver were mined intermittently between the 1600's and the 1930's.

Today, although the "gold fever" has subsided and the people afflicted by it have long since departed, this beautiful mountain village of 600 residents retains its colonial heritage as an outstanding example of the traditional ways of living and working in a remote Mexican village. Nowadays, in addition to the traditional corn and cattle, local folks also cultivate coffee and agave on the mountainside.

It is a joy to wander around in this very peaceful town, which has changed so little in hundreds of years. With a quaint cobblestone plaza lined by dignified white buildings, a classic Porfirian bandstand, an 18th century church dedicated to San Sebastián and the many 18th century Haciendas, San Sebastián is a living museum untouched by time, and an experience that is difficult to surpass.
