Puerto Vallarta, Mexico – Tickets are now available for the highly anticipated 2024-2025 season of the International Friendship Club (IFC) Home Tours. These tours, renowned since 1986, invite visitors to experience some of Puerto Vallarta’s most stunning homes while contributing to charitable causes.
This season’s tours kick off on November 19, with tours running every Tuesday through March 25. From January 8 onward, Wednesday tours will be added, offering even more opportunities for locals and visitors alike to enjoy this beloved Puerto Vallarta tradition.
Since its inception, the IFC Home Tours program has grown immensely, expanding its mission from funding cleft palate surgeries to supporting a wide array of charitable projects. Proceeds now benefit local orphanages, educational programs, and families with children facing cancer, among other vital causes. Through these tours, attendees have a unique opportunity to make a meaningful difference in the lives of Vallarta’s children.
Tours depart from the Sea Monkey Restaurant on the South Malecon, with guests gathering at 9:15 a.m. for check-in, followed by an introduction at 9:45 a.m. Comfortable, air-conditioned buses then transport guests to three or four carefully curated properties, ranging from quaint, traditional casas to luxurious beachfront villas.
Led by knowledgeable IFC docents, each tour lasts approximately three hours and requires participants to navigate cobblestone streets, inclines, and stairs. Tickets are 800 pesos through December and will increase to 960 pesos from January through March, available exclusively online at ifcvallarta.org. Please be sure to bring your confirmation receipt with you.
For those wanting a leisurely start, Sea Monkey Restaurant offers a discounted breakfast to enjoy before embarking on this unique experience.
