Very educational and a must when coming to Panama.
This was a very educational trip that was appropriate for any age group. The staff for the tour and also the crew of our boat were outstanding! Our narrator was also outstanding. He explained things as we were passing them and gave us tons of information! This trip is a must for anyone who comes to Panama!

This was by far my favourite tour of my trip (I did 4)! What can I say, I like playing with monkeys :) Our tour guide, Elio, was top-notch with a mixture of humour and knowledge. He taught us about the Panama Canal, wildlife, and history of Panama. Such a fun tour, I only wish it was longer!

Wildlife spotting!
This was a great tour for wildlife spotting! We ended up being the only ones signed up so we actually had a private tour with Jorge, who was very knowledgeable and brought a spotting scope for us to view the animals and birds up close. We were able to see Agouti, Toucans, Parrots, Two and Three toed Sloths to name a few! Had we hiked Ancon Hill on our own, we certainly would not have been able to locate these animals. Best time to go is early morning. It got quite busy towards the end of our tour.

Lake Gatun
This was the best tour we have taken so far in Panama.
Our guide Gonzales was incredible. His knowledge and enthusiasm were perfect. On Lake Gatun he showed us monkeys, birds, sloth, bats and even a crocodile. The experience was unique. I sing the village was interesting as well since Gonzales was so know about the culture and art. He took us on a short hike and pointed out different trees and their use in daily life.
The entire tour was very enjoyable. I highly recommend this tour.
(The guide goes by Gonzo…for future reference)

Cloud Forest Wildlife Hike
This was a great hike at a slow pace with our guide pointing out and explaining the wildlife, plants, insects, birds and the history of the mountain area. Jaime was terrific and added a personal perspective as he was raised in the area. We enjoyed the tour and learned a lot.

Fun filled full day trip to Anton Valley
Great day out to Anton Valley today with our personal tour guide Alex. Alex was very informative and friendly and took us to all the tourist attractions of this beautiful place. We explored the waterfalls, the zoo, the craft markets, stopped off for lunch at a traditional Panamanian lunch restaurant, visited a butterfly farm, we went to a thermal baths and on the way home stopped off at the fruit and veg markets. 5* to Alex - great day , thank you!

The hike with Carlos was fantastic. We hiked up to the Mirador Cerro el Gaital. Carlos is extremely knowledgeable about the area and the local nature, and you can truly feel his passion for the flora and fauna. It was wonderful to hike and chat with him. I even got to see a sloth, many birds, ants, native bees, and beautiful plants. Thank you so much!

Highly recommend
This was an amazing trip. I read a lot of negative reviews about the long bumpy trip and I would have to say disregard those. Those have to people that have never travel. It took about three hours to get to our destination. Along the way, the driver stopped so we can buy some snacks. Once we reached the boats, the experience on the water was beautiful. I enjoyed the time on the different islands.
