Colleen, her husband Greg, their daughter Dunovan, and their family friends are off on another adventure... This time, in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico! Join the family on this unforgettable getaway as they go on an adventurous ATV ride across the longest, vehicle-compatible suspension bridge in the world, admiring the stunning terrain of Mexico and enjoying a dip in the El Salto Waterfall along the way! They'll also go on a taco tour to explore the delicious local cuisine, and take part in a cooking class where they'll learn how to make a multiple-course meal themselves. With all the natural beauty in Puerto Vallarta, they can't miss visiting their famous Botanical Gardens. Of course, their trip wouldn't be complete without snorkeling in the warm waters and basking in the sun, all while soaking up this diverse culture.
