A true highlight of our visit to El Valle del Anton - it seemed like a nice ride through beautiful scenery -- and then we turned left onto the dirt road. We spent the next hour going up and down 45-degree gradients, on a mostly narrow track that was as much hugely eroded rut as it was a road, with rainforest closing in on both sides. It was exhilarating -- but with life-long resident Eric at the wheel, never a concern. And the Cascada Las Pailas at the end was stunningly beautiful.

Fantastic Trip in El Valle - This was an amazing trip to the waterfalls and more. We had the best driver in Panama, Erik. This is a thrilling your and largely because the "roads" are so challenging. But Erik was calm and steady. Maneuvering up and down the hills covered in mud and rocks. We were 100% safe with him. Our guide, Luz was excellent. Pointing out all the different trees, fruits, coffee and flowers growing in this spectacular jungle. She has the perfect personality for the job. She is kind and extremely helpful. They bright water and snacks for us. And they drive up to an incredible viewpoint of the entire caldera after the waterfall. Well worth the trip!

Beautiful Scenery! - We recently did this excursion and had a great time! Julio picked us up at our Airbnb right on time and took us for a very scenic 3 hour tour to locations WAY off of the beaten path! The waterfalls and pools and views from top of the mountain were incredible! Highly recommend!

Julio did a great job... - Julio did a great job driving us through the winding roads while it poured rain. He walked us to the waterfalls and guided us along the slick rocks. Because of the heavy rains the water wasn’t blue nor was it safe to jump. However Julio did show us where it was safe to swim.

Super good... - Super good morning tour...✨ It was great to come around and see everything from the "little car". We chose the more "extreme route"... That was great. Great environment by the waterfall and fat with a dive.

A refreshing experience!! - What a refreshing experience! From the moment we got on the UTV it all started. That was a ride all on its own! Safe and exciting! The views were amazing and when we got to Pozo azul, it was the highlight! The water so clear, so refreshing! We stayed there for a while! Our guide was so knowledgeable and we learned about the area, flora and fauna and the views… wow wow wow! I was a little skeptical at first, but It was soooo worth it!! Would definitely do it again! Thanks Rideme!!

Wonderful day - Visiting Pozo Azul with my family was an unforgettable experience! From the moment the tour began, everything was well-organized and easy to enjoy. The ride through the lush green mountains is beautiful, and the fresh air makes you instantly relax and disconnect from the city. The guides were friendly, patient, and great with kids, sharing fun and interesting facts about the area. The short hike to reach Pozo Azul was the perfect mix of adventure and safety — even the little ones had a great time exploring nature. When we arrived, we were amazed by the stunning turquoise water surrounded by tropical forest. Swimming there together was pure magic — refreshing, peaceful, and full of laughter. If you’re visiting El Valle de Antón, I highly recommend this tour for families. It’s a wonderful way to bond, have fun, and experience one of the most beautiful natural spots in Panama.

Excellent walk to the blue well with Rideme, super recommended - We stayed at the hotel golden frog, they did not recommend much to do a tour with Rideme and really that was very successful, we chose the blue well tour and they looked for us in the morning from the hotel, really all the experience was excellent from start to finish, along the way they explained us a little bit of the whole area, they let us take photos in different emblematic areas, Gilma our guide pleased us in everything and accompanied us at all times to show us the best places, like the very attentive chauffeur carlos and excellent driver. Super recommended the trip.
