RHYTHMS OF THE NIGHT
Las Caletas, the former jungle hideaway of film director John Houston, is a magical
paradise only accessible by sea - and the backdrop for a unique evening excursion.
Tour Description:
Only an hour's sail away, the journey takes us past the storybook town of Vallarta, which
glistens in shades of fiery gold and pink, illuminated by the setting sun. As we arrive at the
secluded cove of Las Caletas, you'll be welcomed by flickering torches and soft music that
compliments the song of the jungle. Dine by candle-light beside the moonlit ocean, with
tropical palms swaying gently overhead. Then, a rhythmic drumbeat will beckon you into
the heart of the shadowy jungle, where you'll find a torch-lit pyramid set among the
towering palms - the staging for our hypnotic performance of dance and mysticism.
