Awesome adventure - Two couples visiting Panama for the first time. I did not know what to expect. We were picked up from the airport by Gabriel, who is instantly a very likable individual. The hotel was situated in the business district, so traffic can build -up at rush hours, but it was clean and well appointed. The breakfasts were included also. I did request early check-ins (as we arrived on red eye flights), but was initially told that our rooms were not ready until 3pm (we got to hotel at 12pm)! However the staff member did accommodate one room for us once I told him that I did arrange this beforehand. It gave us enough time to put our luggage in the room and then go for lunch. The tours started promptly and we had perfect timings to see the iMax canal show, the ships on the canal, the waterfall experience (we were first to the falls and had plenty of alone time before the crowds came). Our tour guide Gabriel was the perfect host. An extremely jolly chap! Very knowledgeable and polite and a safe driver. The tours went perfectly including the unforgettable monkey experience. The historic part of the city is beautiful. Try yo get some restaurant dining in there. We went to Calesta and Tantalo and Sama Sky lounges. Botanica Pizza was also fantastic (try their wings!). The tour was organized by Danny, who was prompt with answering my emails and with dinner reservations. The Embera people were gracious hosts and we learnt about the traditions and culture whilst also exploring the rainforest. All in all it was a wonderful way to experience the beauty of Panama and meet it’s incredibly wonderful people. I would highly recommend this tour.

Embera Village - Phenomenal experience. Tour was well-planned and executed. Guide was extremely knowledgeable about indigenous culture and traditions, and of course, the experience of the Embera people sharing even one day was transformative. I highly recommend this tour.

Excellent Trip almost felt like I was in an Indians Jones movie - The canoe ride, walk thru the forest, waterfall, Indian village experience was simply exhilarating. Panamayourway company and the tour guide Aldo made it all the more memorable. They took care of everything and meticulously planned the trip. They are punctual, curteous, friendly and i had the best time. I would very highly recommend this company.

Stunning forest, kind fascinating way of life and great guide - Gabriel was an amazing and kind tour guide, going out of his way to make us feel comfortable and shared all about the history of Panama with us on the way to the forest. He even stopped on the way back to get us fresh coconuts! The Emberas people were so kind and welcoming and it is truly a once in a lifetime experience to see their way of life. Not to mention the forest is absolutely stunning it feels like you are on a whole different planet. Highly recommend this tour!!
