What to do in Nayarit?

• Archaeological tours in Nayarit: Located in Ixtlán del Río, 'Los Toriles' is the most famous archaeological site in this state. You will find options to reach from Tepic or Rincon de Guayabitos, so transportation will not be an issue. In this ancient site, you will observe the sheer brilliance of remnants of circular buildings and the perfect acoustics of the Mesoamerican cultures. These ruins are unique and make visits to the ancient site of Ixtlan popular. With the help of a local guide, you will uncover the rich history and know more about the cosmic rituals performed in ancient times. You can find guided tours from Monday to Sunday since the site is open every day of the year.

• Guided tours through the centre of the capital, Tepic: Despite being a small city, it is ideal for a nice walk through culture and absorbing the 'Huichol' essence. Choose to take the famous 'city tours of Tepic' where you can visit the historic centre and ancient buildings such as the Government Palace and the Immaculate Conception Cathedral. You will find tours starting from a duration of only 2 hours. We suggest you visit the capital in March, as it is the month of festivals and fairs so you will have the opportunity to celebrate with locals.

• Guided tour through the coffee route: You probably didn't know Nayarit produces exquisite coffee, and just 28 kilometres from Tepic, you can have a unique coffee experience. In the town called La Yerba, you will be able to participate in the process and production of this elixir, learning about the types of beans and their transformation. Although it is an activity enjoyed at any time of the year, you will find departures only on Tuesdays and Thursdays, with transfers and tastings included. It is truly a highly recommended activity.

• Ecotourism Tours in Riviera Nayarit: As mentioned before, Nayarit is a state with abundant vegetation, so you can enjoy natural experiences such as bird watching in the sanctuary inside the jungle. On the other hand, you can also choose to take a tour to the Sierra del Nayar where you can interact with and learn more about the Huichol culture. You will learn all about the three important elements they use - corn, peyote and deer. This kind of tour usually lasts 6 hours, with transfers and local food included.

Nayarit has so much to offer right from natural landscapes with lush jungle vegetation, to fine sandy beaches. However, it does not receive many tourists. In addition, this state offers you comfortable and economical lodgings to luxury accommodations with spectacular views of the Pacific.

In addition to different tours, we also suggest that you partake in snorkelling in various islands or take a boat tour through its dams and lagoons. Enjoy family-friendly activities that will allow you to have fun like never before.

Don't forget to check if the guided tours you have chosen include food as Nayarit offers delicious traditional delicacies that are based on seafood, such as the zarandeado fish, oysters and even shrimp tamales. You will lick your fingers!
