Everything we expected...and more! - Our 3 day stay was amazing! Service was excellent from pick up at our hotel in Panama City to our return. Germain and his staff were friendly, prompt, and very helpful. Our accommodations on Niadub were as described and the view from our cabin phenomenal. This was some of the best snorkeling we have done. Our trips to Dog Island, Pelican Island and natural pool were outings we did not realize were part of our stay. During our return to the dock, we stopped for a walking tour of a Guna community. The history and images are things we will not forget. Germain, thank you for making our visit one that we will never forget.

San Blas Islands - Theeeee Most Beautiful Beaches I’ve ever seen!!! This tour was EVERYTHING! If you don’t do anything else PLEASE DO NOT SKIP OUT ON THIS 1! Amazing EXPERIENCE! Yes the journey to get there is a little ruff however out driver was very nice and made sure we were ok during the ride… BOOK WITHOUT HESITATION!

Million dollar views - Excellent trip so much fun the view is like 1000000 $$$ I would come back every year we had excellent time

Excellent trip to San Blas - everything excellent. Only the boats should be more comfortable. We are happy for the experience. recommended

Great experience overall visiting Isla Yanis for 1 night! - My tour with Sea San Blas was really good. Pick up was right on time and the driver was really friendly with everyone! After collecting all the guests (5 in total) we hit the road. The latter part of the drive through the mountain can make you a bit car sick because there are a lot of bends in the road but the driver was very attentive and not speeding-I was glad to be the first one picked up and in the front seat! Once you arrive at the pier you may split up onto different boats and wait to find out which one is your boat because people have purchased different trips. I waited about 15-20 minutes at the 2nd pier location in the mangrove and then we were called to the boat. The boat driver was also very good and not speeding. We stopped at two islands so they could pick up food and then we carried on to Isla Yanis. Check-in here was a bit confusing because they have to deal with multiple people arriving at the same time. The lady said I owed $90 more when I had already paid the driver cash in full plus the deposit online. I explained this to them, showed them my email confirmation and then they showed me to my room without further hesitation. The room was basic but nice and clean with swept wooden floors and clean sheets-just as shown in the pictures! After settling in for about an hour we were served lunch. The food was really good (fish, rice, and salad or veggies for lunch). We then went on a tour after lunch to the sunken ship for snorkelling and the natural pool which was fun. You could also purchase food and drinks on this island. Afterwards, we returned to Isla Yanis and after an hour resting there it was about dinner time again (chicken or fish with rice and veggies-yes this can be repetitive but it is good as long as your not vegetarian). The night is nice and quiet with people playing board games or going to bed early. The power was on for lights and to charge your phone at the dining area until 10:00 pm-after that most people are asleep and it’s very tranquil. The sunset was ok-it was a bit cloudy. But the stars were beautiful. In the morning breakfast was pancake, egg and fruit with tea or coffee. I was supposed to go on another tour this day but I never ended up leaving the island because the tour I was supposed to do on Day #2, I did on Day #1. This is one of the main reasons I gave it a 4/5 experience is lack of organization and communication. It was not a huge deal to miss out on the last tour but you don’t really get your fully value when you miss out on the opportunity to see other islands. I had a chill 2nd day; read, swam and laid in the hammock but I only got to see 3 out of 5 islands on my itinerary. I think there are several companies booking through one family on the island so itineraries get mixed up and I feel like no one really has the full plan in detail laid out. This is another confusing thing is that communication is not the best or clear to let you know when the tours and meals are, etc (I later saw meal times posted on the wall which were accurate). If you are fluent in Spanish you might be ok to discuss the agenda but even then it may be unclear! It’s hard to relax when you’re not so sure if you are leaving soon for a tour. My best advice is just relax and enjoy the island-that’s what you’re there for! It’s small enough that if it is time for you to leave on a tour, then someone can find you easily. Aside from that mix up of missing a tour, I have to say that the family on Yanis Island take very good care of their land. They are always working throughout the day in the kitchen, welcoming new guests or day trip visitors plus raking, cleaning, etc. I never saw any garbage-it was very clean. The showers were nice outdoor showers and the bathrooms were kept clean as well! Other notes: There were no bugs or mosquitos when I was there and definitely take sunscreen/hat because shade is minimal especially during day tours. As a solo traveller I was very happy with 1 night and 2 days. On the 2nd day I left at 3:00 so it felt like 2 fulls days and I was ready to leave by then/satisfied with my visit. Doing Sanblas Islands in just a day trip for myself would be way too much travelling for very little time spent to experience the beauty of the islands. My experience with Sea San Blas overall was quire good and I would recommend staying on Isla Yanis. The islands are definitely beautiful and worth visiting-they are a little piece of heaven!

Great trip - Really good trip would definitely recommend although take plenty of water as one of the islands ran out. Food is basic but good

Plan accordingly - The pickup was early, which was good. We spent about 5 hours island hopping. The other 8/9 hours were spent getting from one place to another, plus driver breaks. Prepare accordingly. Bring towels, snacks, and your own snorkel gear (they provide gear, but didn't keep track of who used which mouthpieces). The islands are gorgeous and the lunch was tasty. This tour is not for folks who get sea sick (the boat ride was rough) or need 2 star or better bathroom options. There were a few families with young children who seemed to enjoy the beach.

Perfect location, not so much organization - To be more exact, Islands as well as people are fantastic. Sunsets gorgeous, beaches glorious.. My review, however, is to cover the overall experience & organization. To start off, the description of tours is not always up to date, i.e.: - 2 night tour (Pelicano Island) mentions 1 overnight stay and 4 meals - apparently, this relates to a 1 night tour - drink (juice, soda or water) with every meal - drink offered only with lunch and dinner (not with breakfast) w/o juice option - fresh fruits - don't count on the entire fruit piece all day long, rather small slices of fruit once/twice a day To comment on deficiencies in organization: 1) after cross-check and confirmation of the info presented on the website that ~5 liters of water per person will be provided, well, you guessed it, nothing. Be sure to bring your own extra for the water management during the sun-heat 2) the email notifications about payment are ambiguous. Even when not selecting to pay the outstanding balance (after pre-payment) by credit card and confirming with the operator if the rest is due in cash (thus incurring extra cost in ATM withdrawals), the balance was charged on my credit card w/o possibility to cancel that operation 3) local guide was mostly lost and confused (e.g. told us that we're visiting a natural pool location only and the tour leaves after lunch. 30 mins. later (8:30am) we're called upon by someone else to hurry up into the boat on unannounced tour to we do not know where, thus don't know what to pack/bring etc..) 4) program-proclaimed visit to waterfalls did not happen at all - nor was known to the local guide 5) when returning, w/o ordering late checkout, this was mixed up and originally no one was expecting us at the port to drive us back to Panama City. Guy that was then promptly arranged, well, could get some additional driving lessons (gas, no gas, gas, brake,... steady foot is not something known to him :-)

Wouldn't do it again - The tour mentioned 5 attractions but we only went to 3, the car picked us up at the agreed time, I think it's more worth going with a tour and sleeping there which is almost the same price.

Unreliable company and does not assume its responsibility. They left us abandoned, without the return transfer on the contracted day. - We contracted with SeaSanBlas the 2 days 1 night tour on Yanice Island of the Guna Yala archipelago. The day we returned, our transfer to Panamacity did not appear and the company left us stranded at the pier. We had to spend the night in a Guna community. We lost different services already contracted. The worst was the response from the company, which did not respond to our complaint email until 18 hours later, did not assume responsibility for its serious logistical error, dumping all responsibility on the driver. They believed that with 200 USD, a sad apology but with zero empathy and attention due to our possible economic damage and, above all, moral damage, they could prevent us from making this opinion public to inform future clients of what happened.
