The Tour to take in Panama. - The tour was fantastic, one of the better tours that we have been on. What made it even better was Dan Taylor, our guide. He was super friendly and informative. We can not say enough about him. Not only his effort but the little things he did to make the tour that much better. Taking photos for the guest, helping us navigate the falls, playing his iPad during the trip with beautiful pictures and information about Panama. All really appreciated. Kudos to Dan and the team. You need to hire more guides like him. I rate him and the trip a solid five stars and highly recommend the tour and Dan.

Breathtaking views of the Chagres - Awesome time, great experience! Our guide was very knowledgeable and personable, highly recommend. I would not consider a trip to Panama complete without getting to experience some of the amazing natural beauty it has.

Kayak, waterfall & local tribe tour - The kayaking, swimming at the waterfall & learning about the indigenous tribes was transformative. We will never forget the kindness of the locals. Our guide Cesar was informative & passionate about the tour. We appreciated knowing the plan of the day before we started. We would recommend this tour to adventurous & inquisitive minds.

A wonderful day exploring a beautiful area and people - It was a wonderful experience. From the boat ride to the kayaks to the village. You'll enjoy the entire day. And the drive out to where you will be getting the experience isn't very far at all, just under an hour. Definitely wear shoes that you can wear in the river. The only improvement I would suggest would be for the guide to pass along more information to those attending. I really didn't learn much from him. He just led us between activities but didn't teach us much about the area, the history, the politics, about the wildlife and vegetation, etc. Missed opportunity.
