We went with 2 adults and rambunctious boys of several ages. Hector made such an amazing connection with our kids and did a great job explaining things at all levels. He brought drinks and food for us, accommodated any special needs, was on time and courteous throughout. I plan to send all friends and family to Live Folks moving forward. They are genuinely good people and made such a special trip for us.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hector and his colleague were excellent. They provided us a private care for transportation, safely transported us to various sites for our city tour, and provided us with water. Hector is a wealth of knowledge about Panama and Panama City is will answer all questions in great detail. We were fortunate to have a tour today of both Panama Viejo and Casco Antiguo where we enjoyed lunch and did some shopping. After our tour, we returned to Casco Antiguo for dinner. This is a Black-owned and -operated company in Panama that specializing in travel arrangements and tours. Book them. You will not be disappointed.

We loved our hike. The two hour car ride was comfortable, and the conversations with Hector and Salem were unforgettable. The hike! Gorgeous, exhausting, amazing. The repelling was the cherry on top. Cannot recommend this enough!

Dear Christina, we thank you a lot for your great feedback this helps us to continue doing the right things for our customers and hire the best local tour guides for Panama most authentic local experiences.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am a Travel Agent and needed to book a reliable Tour & Shuttle company for a very large group. This group had numerous tours, dinning requests, specific excursions routes. In addition to choosing to stay in the city part of Panamá for a few days then head to the country part of Panamá where the All-Inclusive resorts are. When I tell you Hector and his AMAZING team went above and beyond for this group and perfectly executed every pickup from numerous airport pick-ups (guests coming in from different states), to tours, to the city hotel to the country resort it’s an UNDERSTATEMENT. I could not have pulled this Group Package off without Hector. He was my righthand man and created a flawlessly, tailored Live Folks package to fit the group’s needs. The group loved them, they always had historical information, smiles and jokes, at the end of the tour they were considered family, from a professional standpoint as a Travel Agent and from a guest standpoint you cannot find a more reliable, professional, personable and exciting team to work with. If you don't pick them, you’re going to wish you did!

Merci bien pour votre qualification et opinion. Nous faisons tout le nécessaire pour offrir un service et des experiences exceptionnelle.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a great time with Hector on our Anton Valley tour. Would highly recommend this tour company and Hector for whatever adventure you choose in Panama. We booked the Anton Valley Uniqueness tour. Anton Valley is a nice break from Panama City as it’s seemingly much cooler and offers a more rustic environment. As a day trip from Panama City - there are a number of sights that you’ll likely see - the Museum, the Butterfly sanctuary, the Nispero Zoo, El Macho waterfalls, the Petroglyphs, lunch and the hot springs. There are tours that offer the ziplining at the El Macho waterfall area, as well as other hiking in the area. For the most part - I think these sites form the basis for most tours of the valley. Are you going to enjoy all the sights? Hard for me to say, but you will enjoy spending time with Hector on your tour - have a good driver, who is on time, and has a great personality. By booking direct with Live Folks you’ll cut out the wholesalers and have at least a user (me) recommended guide to take you where you want to go.

We welcome all kind of reviews as we are not perfect but trying daily the best at we love doing the most, serving you, our distinguished guests. Thank you!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hector and team were unbelievable and the highlight of our visit to Panama. We booked the Anton Valley Zip Lining Adventure. We had 6 adults and 2 kids (9 and 7) and ended up booking a private tour. LiveFolks were prompt at responding to my query about special pickup location instructions. From the moment we got in the van I knew we were going to have a great time. Hector's love for Panama is infectious, and he's a wealth of information. We were completely at ease the entire time, Hector and his team were open and friendly. Hector even patiently listened to my 7 year old as she showed him the sign language alphabet. He listened intently to her and tried out each letter with her and made her light up with excitement. After our zip lining adventure, Hector and team took us up to the waterfall and then down into the natural swimming hole. Next, we headed into Anton Valley where we had a delicious lunch at Carlitos Pizza. We wrapped up our trip shopping at a local market to pick out souvenirs. Hector and his team made sure that we thoroughly enjoyed our day together and were there to capture the memories we made along the way, often picking out the perfect locations to capture as much Panamanian beauty as possible. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, for being such wonderful and compassionate humans. We'll forever remember the amazing day we had with you there to guide our way ensuring we got the most out of our trip and wonderful pictures to remember it by!
