Getting there from Quebec City and Montreal
From eastern Canada, Puerto Vallarta is often a seasonal nonstop from hubs like Montreal or Toronto, otherwise a connection through one of them or a US gateway. As a popular winter sun spot, service and direct options grow during the colder months. Build in time for a layover if your city does not have a direct flight.
What to see and do
- Strolling the Malecon boardwalk
- Exploring the Zona Romantica old town
- Beach day at Playa de los Muertos
- Boat trip to the hidden beaches of the Marietas Islands
Good to know before you go
Use Mexican pesos for the best value, even though dollars circulate in tourist zones. The compact old town is walkable, cheap and frequent buses connect the beaches and hotel zone, and Uber plus taxis are easy, so you rarely need a car and downtown parking is tight anyway. Drink bottled water and carry small bills for taxis and tips.
Entry requirements and health
No visa needed
Good news: with a Canadian passport you can just show up for a short tourist stay, no visa needed. Keep an eye on how long you're allowed to stay so your trip fits.
Vaccines and health
Many travellers get vaccinated against hepatitis A and typhoid, which spread through food and water.
General orientation for a Canadian passport on a short tourist trip, not legal or medical advice. Confirm with official sources, and see a travel health clinic four to six weeks before departure.
