Puerto Vallarta, Mexico (April 29, 2026) – Casa Velas, an adults-only boutique hotel located on the Marina Vallarta golf course in Puerto Vallarta, has launched a distinctive new offering that reframes the traditional vacation photoshoot. Rather than limiting photography experiences to the resort grounds, Casa Velas’s Hidden Puerto Vallarta Photography Tour escorts guests directly into the vibrant heart of the city alongside a professional local photographer. The result is a curated visual narrative that captures not just the traveler, but the character, color, and culture of Puerto Vallarta itself.
The tour moves through some of the city’s most emblematic settings, including the cobblestone streets surrounding the Parroquia de Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe, the artisan stalls and textures of Isla del Río Cuale, hidden alleyways alive with color and charm, striking urban murals that lend a contemporary artistic dimension, and the architectural drama of Los Muertos Pier at sunset. Guests are invited to select one signature location or combine several iconic spots across downtown for a richer, more layered session. Each location offers a dynamic contrast, sharing historic architecture alongside vibrant street life, such as traditional craft markets beside modern public art that produces photographs that feel editorial, original, and deeply rooted in the destination. Guests return home not simply with a beach portrait, but with imagery that tells the story of a place.
The Hidden Puerto Vallarta Photography Tour starts at $1,300 USD for up to eight guests. A private round-trip transfer to and from downtown Puerto Vallarta is included. For more information, please call 1-888-407-4869 or visit https://www.hotelcasavelas.com/.
