All about Jalisco
When to visit
For those who want to spend every minute outdoors, visit from December to April when the weather is dry and mild. It’s the perfect time to take a surfing class or discover the historic architecture of Guadalajara. From June to October, there tends to be fewer visitors and more rain, but there’s still plenty to do. November’s Dia de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead, is when the deceased are remembered and celebrated with parades, festivals, and delicious foods.
Getting around
If you plan to visit multiple parts of Jalisco, renting a car gives you the flexibility to explore at your own pace. The major cities of Puerto Vallarta and Guadalajara have plenty of rental companies, as well as good public transit systems. Bus schedules tend to be fairly informal, but don’t be afraid to ask a local where the nearest bus stop is. Otherwise, taxis are common and affordable—just be sure to agree on a price before getting in.
Traveler tips
Mariachi music is said to have originated in Jalisco, and the bold style is a draw for locals and tourists alike. In Guadalajara, make like the locals and head to the Plaza de los Mariachis to be serenaded under the stars. The historic plaza is lined with bars, making it a popular evening destination. Brush up on your mariachi knowledge—bands can be paid for specific requests—and keep an eye on your bag.
