This is a beautiful part of Panama and our guide Jose was incredible. We are a bit older crowd in our 50s and 80s. Jose not only showed us the spectacular sites, but he also took great care to make sure it was at our pace. His kindness and knowledge made this one of the top tours we have ever taken in all of our travels. We saw so much , petroglphys, animals, flowers, and amazing scenic views. If Jose did not know the answer to our question he tried to find the answer. We could not have asked for anything better. Jose was so genuine it was like we were all long time friends.
We stayed in Gamboa Rainforst so this was great to see this area as well.

Exploring the Antón Valley with Orlando was simply magnificent.
Your knowledge of Panama’s history made the experience even more special, and your attention, always kind and accommodating, made a difference at every turn.
Thank you for guiding us with such dedication.
We recommend you with closed eyes 🙌🌿 great success and Orlando is the best.

Private tour of El Valle de Antón
Our private tour of El Valle de Antón was an exceptional experience, made truly memorable by our outstanding guide, Irving. From start to finish, Irving demonstrated deep knowledge of the area and a genuine passion for ensuring we had a meaningful and enjoyable day.
The itinerary was perfectly balanced, beginning with a scenic hike to view the petroglyphs and continuing on to beautiful waterfalls. Along the way, Irving and our local guide shared insightful context about the history and natural features of the region, which added significant value to the experience. The views throughout the hike were stunning and well worth the effort.
We also enjoyed a delicious lunch at a local restaurant. A refreshing swim was a highlight of the day, providing a perfect break and an opportunity to fully take in the surroundings. The visit to the zoo was another enjoyable addition. We also stopped at the local market with a wide variety of unique offerings, rounding out a diverse and engaging itinerary.
Irving’s professionalism, attentiveness, and ability to tailor the experience to our interests made this tour stand out. We would highly recommend this tour, especially with Irving as your guide.

Lovely visit to a beautiful serene location
Tour guide Oscar, was very friendly, informative and accommodating.
The El Valle visitor center provides an overview of the area and a bit of history.
The Nispero Zoo is surprisingly well laid out and an enjoyable experience. The cages seem to blend into the rain forest. The animals are very tame.
El Macho waterfall is a beautiful sight. The area is well taken care of. You can spend a relaxing time here or do something more adventurous such as zip lining. Happened to see a sloth in a tree above the swimming area!
The petroglyphs are interesting and a bonus visit to another small waterfall with a most welcome dip in the refreshing, cold waters.
The craft market provides a few options for souvenirs and lunch. Pipa (coconut water) ice cream is a must try, unique flavor.
A beautiful small village where you can get away from the hustle and bustle of the big city.

10/10 private tour
Our trip was with Gabrielle and it was an incredible experience! He was very friendly and knowledgeable. He never pushed or pressured us to go through the experiences faster than we were ready. I really loved that because it allowed us to enjoy the trip at our own pace. He gave us local tips and was great to talk to. I'd love to book another trip with him in the future. He is fluent in spanish and english. One of the best guides I've ever had. 10/10

Anton Valley has a lot to show us, we barely scratched the surface but Gabriel can show us where to go!
We had a wonderful time, Gabriel showed us across Anton Valley where we visited a waterfall, hidden spring, hiking trail and then we visited a zoo! He taught us about the history of Panama. He’s very friendly and respectful, I’d love it if he could show us around more!

Slothing around El Valle
This tour was a great day of outdoor adventure. The hike was bff held with beautiful foliage and cascading waterfalls. The natural pool was extremely refreshing and enhanced by the sloth and her baby hanging out above us in her natural habitat. The zoo and lunch with the eco habitat we visited while there to see the golden frogs of El Valle. Add to all of this Orlando’s knowledge, kindness and friendly personality and it was a great day spent with a new friend !
