One Day Tour to El Valle

(Approximately 260 Km / 162 Mi.)
(8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.)

ACS Motorcycle tours offers daily tours from Panama City to El Valle.
We follow the Pan American highway going over the bridge of the Americas until we reach the entrance to El Valle. The road to El Valle is every motorcyclist’s dream ride.
Smooth pavement full of S curves and hair pins. It is a favorite road of the local motorcyclist enthusiasts. The road is mostly empty allowing our guests to enjoy the scenery as well as the riding. Our tour is paced so that an average rider can stay with the group without stressing his or her riding limits.

Along the way we’ll stop for pictures, stretch our legs and give our guests the opportunity to ask questions. There are pre-determined meeting points along the way in case any of our guests fall behind and our chase vehicle is always not far behind. Our chase vehicle tows a trailer with a spare motorcycle (subject to availability). Even though our motorcycles are brand new and meticulously maintained we understand that mechanical break downs do occur. If this happens and a motorcycle is available, we will replace it. If a motorcycle is not available our guest will have the choice of either have the remainder of their money refunded or join us for next day’s tour. (subject to availability).
 

The Activities

Once we reach El Valle our guests will have the chance to visit the local market, where fresh fruits and vegetables along with handmade baskets and beautiful wooden trays are sold. Also Kuna Indians offer their famous colorful “molas”. After our visit to the market and some refreshments we continue with a short ride to the El Macho falls. This a gorgeous fall 85 meters high, in the middle of pristine jungle. There are pathways and suspended bridges to get you close to the falls. It is a spectacular site.
A short ride away is "La Piedra Pintada". These are some huge boulders adorned with pre-Columbian art. No one seems to know exactly what they represent but the locals have their own explanation and they are always happy to share it with us. If you feel like hiking, a few hundred meters will reward you with another waterfall and a small but refreshing natural pool. What better way of cooling down.... bring your swim suit.
Our next stop is the Hacienta El Nispero - the local Zoo. The grounds are vast, peaceful and make for a very relaxing walk. One of the big attractions here is the rather rare Golden Frog.
By now everyone should be hungry. Our next stop is Lunch. Enjoy traditional Panamanian cuisine among the locals. The food is always good and the locals friendly.
After lunch we gear up, mount our bikes and head on back to the Interamericana and Panama City.
However many days you spend in Panama we guarantee this would be your favorite one !!!!!!
