Today is arrival day to Panama City! We will collect you from the airport and take you to the hotel in the centre, 30 minutes away. The guide will also provide important and useful information regarding the rest of the itinerary and what to expect on the tour! 

After breakfast in the hotel, we will head to the ruins of Panama Vieja, on the edge of the city, dating back to the 17th century. We will then head off to visit the famous Panama Canal, an incredible feat of engineering, one of the greatest and most expensive in history. We will stop at the Visitor’s Centre of the Miraflores Locks, where we can appreciate the ships sailing along the canal. We will head to the Amador Causeway, offering one of the city’s most impressive pan...

After Breakfast, we will head to the pier on the Gatún River, near Buena Vista, to board a motorized canoe, which will take us to the community of Emberá Quera. The Chief of the community will greet us on our arrival and will explain the history of the Tribe. Discover the roots of Embera and Wuanaan ethnic groups, two of the indigenous people who inhabit the isthmus of Panama, on the banks of the Chagres River.  Just minutes away are the communities Ella Puru and Katuma,...

The tour starts at the Gamboa Rainforest Resort, where a guide will take you on a boat tour through the Panama Canal into secret waterways to find hidden islands where the Capuchin and Howler Monkeys can be seen leaping in the trees above. We will pass through lush green rainforest and hopefully spot these inhabitants as well as butterflies, herons and turtles.

Today, we will leave the Gamboa reserve for a flight to David.  From here, we will be taken to the small mountain town of Boquete. Hiking the area is spectacular and is the launching spot to climb the Baru volcano or hike The Quetzal Trail. If we are lucky, we could actually see the national bird in its natural habitat. If you prefer a more "cultural" activity, you can visit a coffee plantation, or if you are looking for an adrenalin-filled adventure, there are rafting trips abou...

After breakfast, we will hike the famous Quetzal Trail. The adventure starts at the Cerro Punta, where we will start to hike.  Along the trails of this impressive rainforest, we can see more than 250 bird species, making it perfect for bird watching, especially because of the rare species, of which the quetzal stands out. The Mayans and Aztecs revered this magical bird as it represented the god of their heaven.  During the hike, we can appreciate the lush flora with interlac...

After breakfast,  we will be driven to the Gulf of Chiriquí. Chiquirí Gulf is one of Panama's best-kept secrets and a fundamental part of the National Marine Park. The park is also famous for its remote, pristine, white sandy beaches surrounded by crystal-clear water, where you may swim amongst a variety of tropical fish. The perfect destination for snorkelling and other water sports.

Today is a free day to explore this incredible pristine beachside paradise. Take it as relaxed or as active as you like with numerous water sports on offer.

Today is another free day in paradise. The national park covers 150 km2 of transparent ocean, with 20 stunning islands of lush tropical rainforest and many palm tree lined white sandy beaches. The islands are a treasure of water and nature, where pirates once raided the Spanish galleons.
