Perfect getaway to nature - This tour was gorgeous! Luis was a very pleasant guide, adjusting to our needs and giving us different options and good tips. Jorge managed to get us through the traffic smoothly and safely. The hiking tour was the best part of our visit to Panama, it was worth every penny!

Breathtaking views from the Valley to the Pacific - Luis is fantastic! Experienced hiker familiar with the entire Anton Valle. Excellent communication starting days in advance. We were lucky to be the only booking for the day making for a private experience that he customized based on our level of experience - allowing us to spend more time hiking along the peaks of La India Dormida. The afternoon is a much shorter hike on the upper portion of Cerro La Silla including more magnificent views from the peak! For those with some hiking experience looking to enjoy nature this a must. Would not recommend to those who have never hiked as it is much more than a walk through the woods - parts of the trail(s) are rocky, steep, and slick (but we never felt unsafe).

First rate guided hiking for spectacular views - Our guide Luis was superb, very passionate, enthusiastic and knowledgeable throughout the day. After the drive from Panama City we hiked La India Dormida (Sleeping Indian) in the morning followed by a welcome stop for lunch in El Valle de Anton before climbing Cerra Carra Iguana in the afternoon. Highly recommended.

Awesome Hike and experience! - This experience was absolutely amazing and definitely our highlight from our visit to Panama! Luis was our guide and he went above and beyond to make our experience unforgettable. He is very professional and accommodating and extremely knowledgeable about everything to do with Panama. We did La India Dormida Hike and a shorter one after and the views of both were spectacular. We also stopped for lunch in between at a restaurant Luis had booked for us which was also amazing and overlooked the Anton Valley. We would highly recommend this tour and Luis. Thanks for an awesome day!

Great experience!! - Such a wonderful hike experience! I truly loved and appreciated how much our guide Luis knew about the valley de Antón, the canal and panamá in a whole. Luis was very informative, professional, friendly and really made sure that we were all happy with what we could do next after our first hike trail. I can't forget about our amazing driver Paola! She's a fantastic driver and she was very polite, friendly and respectful. I would highly recommend this excursion for anyone looking for a new challenge that either hasn't hiked before or loves hiking!

An amazing day of hiking, food, and authentic connection! - We enjoyed an amazing day exploring Valle de Antón, hiking India Dormida, authentic Panamanian lunch, and then visiting Chorro Macho waterfall. Our tour guide Luis and driver Paola were incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and personable. The day was wonderful and I would highly recommend. I would do this again!

Anton valley - The first trail is very steep with a large change in elevation and can be very slippery. Good hiking shoes are recommended.

Great hiking tour in Panama - Great tour. Our guide Luis is great. We only have 3 people on this tour and we are all physically fit, so he customized the tour to give us a lot of hiking. The trails are great and the views are breathtaking. Highly recommend this tour for anyone who is seeking nature and some physical activity in Panama.

Great but be prepared to "work" at the climb - Great hike BUT...Be Aware...this is strenuous with most of it comprised of steep uphill climbs. The trail is littered with leaves that are wet and slippery (One of our party actually slipped and fell twice). It can be treacherous in spots but the views at the top are spectacular
