Great way to better appreciate Cerro Ancón - It's a great guided experience to better appreciate Cerro Ancón, both its meaning for the people of Panama and for spotting wildlife. Also, you 'll get the the bests views of the city and the canal.

A hill and so much more! - Carlos is an excellent guide. I learned so much about Ancon Hill, the history of the Canal and Panamá itself. Thank you for providing such an excellent experience.

Extremely knowledgeable - My boyfriend and I basically had a private tour with Juan Carlos. He was very knowledgeable about the wildlife, plants, history of Panama, healthcare system, and more! Very enriching experience. Wish we would’ve done it sooner as it gave context to a lot of other things I learned on the trip. On time pick up on Casco Viejo even though it made it seem like it was outside of the pick up zone on the app. I just had to respond on What’sApp with a updated location.

Great Tour Guide! - Superb! Juan Carlos is truly knowledgeable. Enjoyed learning from him. Pick up was on time. Would highly recommend this tour. Would not have had the same experience visiting the hill on our own with a great tour guide.

Great Tour Guide - Our Tour Guide, Juan Carlos, was absolutely fantastic. He had an amazing wealth of knowledge that he shared with us during the tour. It would have been a completely different (less enjoyable) experience without having him to explain things and point out the animals and aspects of the topography.

Book this tour for wildlife, history, and some morning exercise with an outstanding guide - Outstanding experience. Not only did I see multiple sloths, but we also discussed fascinating topics around the history of Panama. Highly recommended!

A Memorable Experience - This was an exceptional experience. Learning the history of Anton Hill and its significance to Panamanians provided a wonderful backdrop for the tour. Juan Carlos, our guide, offered insights into the Hill’s intertwined connection to the Panama Canal and to the relationship between Panama and the US. But, history was accompanied by the beautiful scenic views of the city and canal during the climb up and atop the hill. Along the way, we stopped to discover the native flora and fauna from tree varieties to frogs, toucans, and sloths. We made our way up and down the hill at a comfortable pace with some snacks along the way. A totally enjoyable adventure!
