According to legend, an Indian princess wandered the mountains and died in disgrace after her lover committed suicide.

Being able to observe the leatherback turtles, the largest of all turtles is a truly memorable experience. It is as large as a human being, reaching a length of 5.6 feet (approx. 1.7 meters). This turtle is the heaviest non-crocodilian reptile in existence, reaching a weight of 500 kilograms (1,100 pounds)! Adult specimens measure between 4.5 and over 6 feet (1.4 to 1.8 meters) in length. Your guide will measure every turtle that comes ashore and maybe you can break that record! The nocturnal turtle tour allows you to observe the turtles as they lay their eggs. Since this is a scientific observation activity, protocols must be followed to ensure the well-being of the turtles, as they are an endangered species. Your guide will provide further information about these fascinating creatures as you walk along one of the most beautiful beaches in Bocas del Toro. The Giant Sea Turtle Conservation Tour is available from April through mid-September.

What are people saying about Panama

Ruth_G, Oct 2026

Canceled trip lead me to Viator, so glad it did

I had scheduled the tour with another organization and they canceled it only after I reached out to them to find out when I should expect to be picked up the next day. I was so disappointed an immediately started looking for an opportunity to take the same tour with someone else. Victor came to my rescue. Had the most wonderful tour. The guide was wonderful and so knowledgeable, Manolo Ruiz even "speaks" monkey 🐒. During the jungle walk he spotted sloths 🦥 amazing 🐦 and would set up his fancy binocular to ensure everyone could see. He even took photos for us too. He was great! Our driver on the tour was the BEST as well. So glad the first tour with another organization canceled🐒🐦🦎🦥🦇🦋

Long live Embera!

From when Orlando (best tour guide ever) picked me up from the hotel, he brought the energy that already confirmed to me this was going to be a great trip. And it did not disappoint. The Embera people were excellent hosts and they enjoy hosting people on their little Island. This is a trip that whenever I return to Panama I plan on doing again.

Panama Canal and City Tour Experience

Robert_M, Oct 2026

Super informative Canal & Panama City Highlights Tour

Excellent, informative tour of the Panama Canal and other interesting sites in Panama City. Gabriel did an excellent job working around some last minute changes in the Canal Visitor Center’s schedule due to the recent earthquake. We had a couple of folks from China who spoke no Spanish and only a bit of English, but Gabe was super patient working through translations. I really knew very little about the operations and pride Panamanian’s have for this complex and critical logistics link. Also loved the beautiful views of the city from the marina. One final stop on the tour was the high end hat shop near the Plaza Mayor…I came back later to make a purchase. All in all a great tour, gracias Gabriel!

Panama Canal & City Tour with Hotel Pickup & Canal Entry Included

Albertino_T, Oct 2026

Great experience

My parents and I booked this tour on our layover in Panama. We received multiple messages with detailed instructions about 1 week before our trip. However, we never expected an earthquake to shatter our schedule. Our flight was delayed for 8 hours so we basically missed out the deadline for cancellation. Immediately after my notification about missing out the tour, I received an instant message about making up for the missed tour. I was completely shocked about their professionalism and caring response. I was offered a new tour the next morning without any additional cost. I was picked up the next morning on time. Both KiKei and Jimmy were super attentive. We were able to catch the ship passing through the lock and the train passing by on our first try. The tour guides were very meticulous about timing so we can see all the actions at the Canal. After the Canal, we were dropped off at old town and were given a highly detailed explanation about all the buildings there. Overall. I highly recommend this tour company. They turned one of my most stressful travel experience into a great one with a lot of wonderful memories.

A Must Book!

Our guide Vincent is truly incredible! He educated us the entire tour. The canal history and construction is truly mind-blowing. I'm still processing the information along with the experience. Breathtaking views. Being inside the Panama Canal locks was amazing. The whole process is a site to see. Lunch was delicious. For any vegans planning to book this experience...the vegan food options were filling and very good (rice, salad, plantains and sauteed vegetables). Everything was seasoned to a T! The bus driver was excellent.

Great Experience!

I had an amazing experience, even though it was raining and chill out, the crew made sure we had a great time, the only thing we needed was the sun to make it an unforgettable experience. One of the crew members Miguel assisted me in getting in the water since I don't know how to swim, that was very sweet he was there watching over me while i was able to enjoy the water. Loved that the tour was both in english and spanish, also history based. The dance and the activities were great. Overall an amazing experience.
