This eco-adventure is ideal for nature lovers eager to explore Panama’s tropical forests and wildlife. Starting at 8:30 AM, you’ll be picked up for a scenic 1.5-hour ride on the Pan-American Highway. A bilingual guide will join you in the city.

Your first stop is Gatun Lake, where a fast boat takes you to Monkey Island to spot wild monkeys, crocodiles, iguanas, and tropical birds.

Next, explore Casco Antiguo, a historic district from 1673 filled with colonial charm, cobblestone streets, and local crafts.

We’ll then drive around Cerro Ancón and along the Amador Causeway for the best skyline views. After lunch at a local restaurant (not included), we head back around 3:00 PM — a day full of nature, culture, and unforgettable views.
