Best Tour EVER!!! - When our tour started, it was raining very hard, and we were skeptical about going out on the boat. Our guide and driver, Louis, took us to a coffee shop to wait out the storm while providing us with fascinating information about the Panama Canal and Panama. Once the weather cleared, we embarked on the boat, and it was truly a surreal experience. Louis and the driver were incredibly genuine and kind. They spent ample time at each spot, trying to find monkeys for us and educating us on the various animals we encountered. They took us to multiple locations, ensuring we had a comprehensive and enjoyable experience. Compared to other boats and tour companies we saw, our tour was far superior. I will absolutely use this tour company anytime I revisit Panama and highly suggest booking with them!
