Description
Enjoy one of the most epic activities you can experience during your visit to Panama!
Start your adventure on the Chagres River, one of the main tributaries that feeds the Canal. As you cruise along Gatun Lake—inside the Panama Canal—you’ll have the unique chance to watch and sail beside the massive ships that pass through the Canal in both directions. Please note: this tour does not include visiting or crossing the Canal locks.
This adventure also takes you deep into the tropical rainforest within the Canal’s watershed, where you’ll discover the rich variety of plants and animals that thrive in this lush environment. With over 160 species of wild animals and 25 species of protected birds, this experience is a paradise for nature lovers.
The highlight of the tour is visiting the monkeys’ natural habitat, where you might spot Capuchins, Tamarins, and Howler monkeys.
