El Valle is a small mountain village located in an extinct volcano crater. It is famous for its sunny though cool climate and for its daily morning market (biggest on Sundays). Your guide will pick you up at your hotel and take you to El Valle, about 2 hours west from Panama City. On the drive you will cross the famous Bridge of the Americas and ride along the Pacific Coast before turning uphill to the mountain village. Every day many local families come from the entire valley to El Valle to sell their goods on the colorful market. Feel free to admire and purchase regional products such as fruits, vegetables, flowers, stone soaps, ceramic articles, hand-made wooden baskets, wooden furniture, etc. Prices are negotiable. If there is time left, you can visit some of the other El Valle attractions such as the natural hot springs, the petroglyphs, the zoo "El Nispero" or the stunning waterfall "Chorro Macho" (entrance fees not included).
Important Note: The market is open every day - however, on Sundays it is bigger than on other days.
