Yes, this is a private group tour with only your party and the driver-guide.

About This Tour

A private evening tour along the Malecón, the illuminated Muelle de los Muertos pier, and the calm boardwalk of Marina Vallarta. Starting with hotel pickup, this private evening tour heads first to the Malecón as it comes alive at night with glowing sculptures and boardwalk crowds, then to the sail-shaped, color-lit Muelle de los Muertos pier — one of the city's most recognizable nighttime sights — before ending with a relaxed stroll along Marina Vallarta's quieter, softly lit boardwalk.

The Malecón's open-air sculpture collection reads entirely differently after dark. By day it's a scenic backdrop for a stroll; by night, uplighting and the glow of nearby restaurants and bars turn the same bronze pieces — works like Ramiz Barquet's 'Nostalgia' and Alejandro Colunga's 'Rotunda of the Sea' among them — into something closer to an outdoor gallery, with long shadows and a crowd that shifts from daytime families to an evening promenade of locals and visitors alike. It's also simply more comfortable: Puerto Vallarta's coastal heat eases off once the sun sets, making the same mile-long boardwalk a genuinely different experience to walk after dinner than at midday.

The tour's second stop, the Muelle de los Muertos pier, is one of the most photographed structures in the Zona Romántica for good reason — its sail-shaped silhouette and color-shifting LED lighting were purpose-built for exactly this kind of evening visit. The current pier, designed by architect José de Jesús Torres Vega, was inaugurated in 2013, replacing an older wood-and-metal scaffolding structure that had stood since the 1960s. Its name — 'Pier of the Dead' — comes from the beach it sits beside, Playa de los Muertos, whose own origin is genuinely disputed: competing local legends point to an old cemetery once relocated from the beach, to a pirate-treasure fight gone bloody, and to the ghosts of Indigenous warriors fallen in an earlier battle nearby. No single version is confirmed, and locals themselves tend to shrug and say nobody really knows which, if any, is true.

The night closes out at Marina Vallarta, a newer, purpose-built marina district north of downtown with a calmer, more polished boardwalk lined with yachts, cafés, and palm-lined walkways — a deliberately quieter counterpoint to the Malecón's livelier energy, and a good place to end an evening at an easier pace.
