Some trips stay with us because of the places we discover. Others because of how they make us feel. At Apolo, we want you to experience both: an unforgettable adventure and a group where everyone can find their place.

Raúl will be with you throughout your journey across Puerto Vallarta and Banderas Bay. He'll help keep the itinerary, transfers and activities running smoothly, but his role goes far beyond managing schedules.
He'll pay attention to how the group feels, bring together people who haven't met yet and create opportunities for everyone to feel comfortable, welcomed and included, without pressure and with respect for each person's pace. He'll listen, offer support and help deal with unexpected moments with care and understanding.
Because to us, a great trip isn't just about discovering somewhere new. It's about coming home knowing you've shared something special with other people.
No one left on the sidelines. Space for everyone to be themselves. A group that becomes one of the best parts of the journey.
Raúl's Instagram · @raulmirror ↗Raúl will be your main point of contact throughout the trip: answering questions, supporting positive group dynamics and helping you enjoy every stage with peace of mind.

GianAthens · previous tripThis is my second trip with Apolo. They really do exceed my expectations every time. I love meeting new people while sharing activities, culture and parties. I can't wait for the next one!
ManuLisbon · previous tripSo much fun, really well organised, and we got to see so many things. We made the most of the trip.

JoseLisbon · previous tripWe couldn't have packed more into the trip. Everything was so well organised and there were plenty of laughs!
IñakiAthens · previous tripAll my expectations were exceeded! Great organisation, fun activities, interesting visits and excellent attention throughout. My fellow travellers were varied, interesting and really funny. I'll definitely do it again.
AndreaAthens · previous tripAt first I wasn't sure about signing up for a group trip with people I didn't know. I'm glad I didn't let fear stop me: it was an incredible experience, both culturally and personally. Apolo Events Trips is exceptionally well organised, but what sets them apart is the care they take with the personal and emotional side of travel. I felt looked after and understood, and had so much fun. I met people with soul and stories to share, not just travel companions. An experience I highly recommend.
