Liz Taylor House
Richard Burton bought this home, in the Gringo Gulch area of Puerto Vallarta for Liz in 1963. The formal name of the house is Casa Kimberly and is now a bed and breakfast. After they got married, he purchased the one across the street. (It is known as the Richard Burton house). The two homes are connected by a pink bridge across the street, and the only way to get to his house is to go through hers and across the bridge. Whenever Burton was drunk, he was banished to his house, and it became known as his 'doghouse'. There are daily tours to view the home owned by Elizabeth Taylor, who helped make Puerto Vallarta famous, during her filming of the movie "Night of the Iguana".  Daily Tour Information

Located in downtown Vallarta, this church  took 33 years to build from 1918 to 1955; the trade mark crown was damaged in the 1995 earthquake and has now been repaired.

Galleries

The crew of V Tours Online has traveled extensively throughout Puerto Vallarta and the surrounding areas of Mexico and other parts of Central America and has compiled a list of items for your convenience, safety and well being, besides your bathing suit and tanning lotion.

Some of the items may appear to be the obvious, some not...there is a Walmart and Sams Club, and Costco in Puerto Vallarta, yet you will pay a bit more for the same items you purchase in the US.

Below you will find some of the Natural Remedies that are found to be helpful.

• Apple Cider Vinegar. A small bottle of Braggs Apple Cider Vinegar found in most health food stores is a wonderful addition to your Mexico bring along. Consuming a tablespoon in water, (we usually add it to our bottled water and sip it all day long, or for the more brave hearted, it can be taken straight, will help build up your immune system and keep any parasites from taking hold in your system...just in case you happen to ingest some local H2O. Apple cider vinegar contains malic acid which is very helpful in fighting fungal and bacterial infections.  There is great truth to the old saying "an apple a day keeps the doctor away"!
  
  Use Real Apple Cider Vinegar
  The apple cider vinegar that contains all of the health benefits is not a clear vinegar, but just the opposite. It is an organic and unfiltered vinegar . It is not a clear liquid, but has got a brownish tinge to it. If you try looking through it, you will notice a tiny cobweb-like substance floating in it. This is known as "mother", and means just one thing. This apple cider vinegar is of good quality with all the nutrients and health giving properties intact.

• Acidophilus also known as Probiotics are dietary supplements containing potentially beneficial bacteria or yeasts. The rationale for probiotics is that the body contains a miniature ecology of microbes, collectively known as the gut flora. A number of bacterial types are thought to be thrown out of balance by a wide range of circumstances including the use of antibiotics or other drugs, excess alcohol, stress, disease, or exposure to toxic substances. In cases like these, the bacteria that work well with our bodies may decrease in number, an event which allows harmful competitors to thrive, to the detriment of our health.
  
  The best is the liquid refrigerated brands, but this form is inconvenient to keep fresh while traveling in warm weather climates. We recommend the capsules that do not require refrigeration. Acidophilus is the friendly bacteria found in yogurt, which keeps your colon healthy. Most well known brands of yogurt do not contain enough of the live culture to make a difference if you contract one of those little parasites skulking along in the dreaded "Montezuma's Revenge". 
  
  It works wonders on building your immune system to keep from contracting anything that will put a severe dent in your vacation playtime and will work quickly in helping you feeling better immediately in case you are caught unaware. You can usually take about 2-4 capsules every hour at the onset of anything that feels less than healthy.
  
  You can begin taking Acidophilus as well as apple cider vinegar long before you begin your travels
   

• Individually wrapped packets of hand sanitizer...great to keep in your beach bag or day traveling bag for that quick and safe cleanup when water is short or questionable.
   

• Flip Flops...always a favorite as well as a good pair of walking shoes or tennies. There are incredible day adventures throughout the Sierra Madres and you will need more than your beach footwear to ensure your comfort.
