Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - The International Friendship Club (IFC) provides one of the most popular tourist activities in all of Puerto Vallarta, their always special Home Tours. So put on your walking shoes, grab your camera, and get ready to enjoy a fun-filled day of discovery, while giving a helping hand to the less fortunate in Puerto Vallarta and surrounding areas.

November the 29th will be your first opportunity to take an IFC Home Tour this season. Tours will take place every Tuesday and Wednesday from now until the end of the season, with a couple of weeks off at the end of December.

Our air-conditioned, comfortable buses will take you to four fabulous homes in Puerto Vallarta that are renowned for their location, architectural significance or for their art and interior designs. Our knowledgeable docents lead each group. Most tours require the ability to walk on cobblestones and up and down stairs. The tours last for about three hours and cost $600 pesos.

The tours are consistently rated as "Excellent" on Trip Advisor. All of the profits from the tours are used to support IFC's cleft palate program, free dental treatments for folks in Boca De Tomatlan, RISE orphanage, the PV Youth Orchestra and other programs that are essential for better health and education for residents of Puerto Vallarta.

Tickets are available in advance at the IFC office, (at the north-east corner of the bridge where Insurgentes crosses the Rio Cuale on the South side of Puerto Vallarta,) between 9:00 am and 1:30 pm Monday to Friday, and online at toursforvallarta.com.

Home Tours depart promptly at 10:30 am from the Sea Monkey Restaurant on the beach at Aquiles Serdan, across from the Molina de Agua condominiums, on the south side of Puerto Vallarta. Tickets go on sale every tour day at 9:00 am, so why not get there early to enjoy breakfast on the beach? It's a great way to start your day - and to make sure you don't miss the bus!
