WHAT YOU’LL DO

Getting to know an exotic destination requires covering a lot of ground, preferably with a guide that knows the lay of the land. With this experience, explore Panama on a week-long guided adventure vacation designed to reveal the beauty, the culture and the landscape of Panama. Dotted with mountains, national parks, tropical beaches and abundant native wildlife, this region of Central America is a treasure trove for the intrepid traveler.

Touch down in Panama City and immediately get a comprehensive overview exploring the sites. Each day offers a new and different adventure to round out your Panama journey: Follow the Panama Canal to Punta Culebra where you are likely to see sloths, iguanas and some of Panama's marine life, all while getting filled in on the rich history dating back to Columbus. In Portobelo, snorkel the Caribbean and zip line through the jungle. Hop over to El Valle and explore, then spend two nights in Santa Catalina and hike, bike or explore the India Dormida Trail by horseback indulging in beautiful sights and waterfalls. Last but not least, you can take an optional day trip to visit Coiba, known to surfers as one of the world's best beaches. Carve the waves that run ashore at a World Heritage site, where you might just see wondrous creatures like whale sharks.

Your last two days will be spent in the the adventure capital of Panama, Boquete, which is nestled in the mountains. On your way there, stop at some hot springs and enjoy coffee tours, zip lining canopy tours, hiking to the continental divide or a volcano. There’s also rafting, kayaking, horseback riding, and rock climbing. Paradise is just within your reach, and with all lodging and transportation taken care of, it's easier than you think.
