Fantastic tour of Valle de Anton! - This tour to El Valle was amazing, Aura was a fantastic tour guide. Her english was excellent and she's very knowledgeable. We loved everything,the butterfly enclosure, the hike in the mountains and the swim in the natural pool. Our paella lunch was absolutely delicious and they served the biggest tequila shots we have ever seen. I would highly recommend.

Great guide - We had the most delightful experience with our guide Heavenly. She gave us a very detailed history of Panama City as we drive through the city heading for Valle de Anton, then the history of Panama most of the way there. We visited a beautiful butterfly sanctuary. We then enjoyed the sight of the waterfalls and a dip in the pool adjoining the falls. Sitting in the hot springs was enjoyable too. She was very proud to show off the market when we left the waters behind. Not a disappointment at all. Mmmmm, those fruits. Delightful. Also got crafts there.

World Class Experience - Heavenly lives up to her name! She is so knowledgeable, fun, and tailors the experience to your desires! We had an unforgettable day and learned so much about Panamanian history, foods, flora, and fauna. We saw butterflies, went for a swim, hiked through the jungle, went zip-lining by a waterfall, and ate authentic Panamanian foods. Heavenly is one of the best guides we have had anywhere in the world. Wonderful way to experience Panama like a local!

Book this tour! You will have the time of your life👌 - I had an absolute blast on my tour to Anton Valley, Panama, yesterday! Our tour guide, Heavenly, was absolutely fantastic - friendly, knowledgeable, and made us feel like part of the family. We got to experience the thrill of ziplining for the first time, and it was exhilarating! The Mariposario was a beautiful spot to see all the butterflies up close, and the natural spring was the perfect way to relax and unwind. Heavenly's expertise and warm personality made the whole experience truly unforgettable. If you're looking for a fun and memorable adventure in Panama, I highly recommend this tour! 🌴🇵🇦"
