What you can expect

The journey begins with a scenic one-hour drive from Panama City, crossing the Centennial Bridge and passing through the lush Soberanía National Park, a protected rainforest teeming with diverse flora and fauna. Upon arrival at the Gamboa dock, guests board a boat for an unforgettable ride across Lake Gatun to Monkey Island, where they can observe capuchin, howler, and tamarin monkeys thriving in their natural habitat. This immersive experience allows visitors to witness these fascinating creatures up close while learning about the region’s delicate ecosystem.

After this immersive experience, the tour proceeds to the former US Military Clayton Base food court, now converted into the 'City of Knowledge'. (lunch is not included)

The final stop is the Panama Canal Miraflores Visitor Centre, where visitors gain invaluable insight into the history and operations of one of the most important waterways in the world. Here, guests can observe massive ships as they navigate through the intricate system of locks, showcasing the sheer scale and ingenuity of this engineering masterpiece. You can also enjoy “A Land Divided, A World United,” presented in stunning 3D by IMAX Canal de Panama, is a cinematic masterpiece that offers an immersive journey through the history and significance of the Panama Canal.

The tour concludes with a return to the hotel around 4:30 PM, leaving participants with lasting memories of Panama’s incredible wildlife, history, and innovation.

Guests who prefer to be dropped off at Casco Viejo (Old Town), where you can explore the charming streets, browse boutique shops, visit historical museums, and indulge in the vibrant local dining scene.
