Well worth it - A truly unique experience to discover the flora and wildlife of Panama Canal. The pick up at the hotel was in time. Our guide Alfonso was truly knowledgeable and his English was perfect. He gave us a lot of useful information about the tour, the city, the history, the animals and the flora. Well organised and friendly. The trip on a boat next to the vessels transiting Panama was a unique experience. We could see plenty of animals ( birds, monkeys, iguana, sloth…) I loved that the group was not too big. Alfonso answered all the questions we had about a lot of local topics and about the animals. It was great. Highly recommend.

Fun Adventure! - Loved this experience with the monkeys getting on the boat and taking peanuts & grapes from our hands. It was also educational to learn about other wildlife & natural resources.

Highly recommended - Camilo was prompt and organized in booking us a tour with Luis (Abdiel). As reviewed by others, CAB service, knowledge, and language ability are stellar. We took the earliest departure at 5:45 as the weather was cool and there were few tourists. We were able to see: many birds (incl. toucans), a sloth, iguanas, ships, and monkeys. We personally had no issues with insects nor heat. All was agreeable and easy. Best to prepare US$ tip money in advance for guide - and also the local boat driver.

Great early morning visit! - A 5:45AM departure from our hotel was highly recommended and well worth it. We had the islands to ourselves and were able to interact with a variety of animals. My highlight was a monkey who decided that my bald head was the perfect place to hang out for awhile.

Airport Transfers and Monkey Island - We used Camilo for airport transfers along with a private tour to monkey island and for transportation to and from the canal. Camilo was always on time and spoke English very well. The monkey island excursion consisted of our group of 2 couples, Camilo and the boat captain. Definitely do this excursion with Camilo, it is well worth it. Email correspondance with Camilo prior to the trip was excellent, he would always reply in a timely manner. We would not hesitate to use Camilo in the future.

Enjoyable day trip to Gamboa - We recently used Camilo for a day trip to Gamboa for a boat ride to Monkey Island, a visit to Gamboa Rainforest Reserve and hiking in the rainforest. I highly recommend Camilo, as his prices are very reasonable, he is friendly, punctual, speaks excellent English and has a great sense of humor. I also noticed that he is very honest, he charged us less than his original price quote, so we gave him a nice tip to compensate.

Un organized tour - The experience was great!! Loved the monkeys! However I booked the day before and heard nothing from the tour personnel as to what time is pickup! I had to message them on the day of the tour for them to say that they can’t pick us up even though it stated it at the time of booking.. my tour was postponed until 2 pm! I booked for 12 noon! Late responses late with pickup also!! They didn’t take us back to the hotel!! I wouldn’t book again with Viator! Highly upset! Unorganized! If they overbook they need to state that and really need to communicate better with paying customers!! I will not book again! I felt lied to! And not satisfied! For the inconvenience of the time you all could have provided the transportation to make it right! That was ridiculous!! Never again!

They Never Showed Up - We had booked and prepaid a tour "Gatun Lake & Monkey Island: with this operator. The pick-up was to occur at 5:30 in the morning. They never showed up and also were not reachable until 8 am, at which time we gave up trying. Bottom-line is that they are unreliable and incommunicado. Viator refunded us the money, but having a full-day tour not happen without any advance warning when we only had three days in Panama really sucked. Our recommendation is to stay away from this operator.
