One of the highlights of the tour was seeing a sloth along the trail - a truly unforgettable experience! The waterfalls we encountered were a refreshing break from the dust. Both tour guides were friendly and knowledgeable.

The best off-road ATV jungle tour I've ever done! Cool trails, great staff, and the waterfall was absolutely stunning. The guides made sure everyone felt safe while still having an amazing adventure.

Perfect day trip from Panama City! The hotel pickup was smooth, and the drive to Rio Hato gave us beautiful views. The ATV ride through the jungle was exhilarating and the hidden waterfall was worth every minute.

An absolute must-do experience in Panama! Our guide was fantastic - patient with beginners and knew all the best spots. The swimming at the waterfall was the perfect way to cool off after the dusty trails.

Brilliant adventure! We saw monkeys, toucans, and so much wildlife. The guides spoke great English and made sure everyone was comfortable. Highly recommend bringing a change of clothes - you will get muddy!
