    It was an amazing experience! Our tour guide Mr. Bernal was a fountain of knowledge! The Panama Canal tour was great we got there in time to see the ship passing through! The Old Town is beautiful and we left feeling we understood a lot more about the grand history of Panama! 10/10 would definitely recommend to anyone.

  • Monkeys, Crocs. Freighters & Coconuts

    We were staying at the Beach House Hotel in Amador and asked the desk if they could recommend the a Monkey viewing tour. In short order we were contacted by Gustavo and arrangements were made for a 7:00 AM pickup at the hotel. $90 per person - all-in. Just the two of us (wife & I) … lots of room in the comfortable Toyota transporter. Gustavo kept up an informative running commentary enroute. Arriving at a point on the arm of Gatun Lake we hopped in one of the many motorboats piloted by a local Panamanian and zoomed up the Canal (Lake Gatun) at top speed alongside huge Cargo ships heading to Colon until we reached the Gamboa Nature Reserve. Our boat pilot knew exactly where to go and we had close encounters with three species of monkeys (noisy, shy/quiet, inquisitive) giant ant fortresses, crocodiles & sleeping bats. On the return journey Gustavo treated us to a fresh coconut water & coconut meal chew prepped by a roadside vendor whom was pretty handy with a machete. All in all a very well run, informative tour which we enjoyed greatly. Thank-you Gustavo.

    Really nice day! We left very early and the guide made sure we got there at the front of the queue before busloads of other tourist arrived and we had excellent, front row view of the canal and a ship going through. The guide was very knowledgeable and superfriendly. The timing and length of all the activities was perfect: long enough but not too long and not rushed.

    Dimos was a very good guide and very knowledgeable about the area! He had to improvise a lot because the traffic was heavier than usual, but he did it splendidly!

    Gustavo was our tour guide. He was very responsive and thorough in communication, even before we arrived in Panamá. He was very friendly, professional, very knowledgable, always punctual, patient, helpful and energetic. There were 7 of us, 4 adults 2 children. Visting Panama from Barbados. He would remember all our names and the kids enjoyed learning spanish with him. Gustavo would advise us of the best time and ways to get the best experience out of our tours. What to wear and what to carry with us. The vehicles are always cleans, spacious and comfortable. Gustavo taught us much on our tours and was able to answer our many questions! We would definitely visit Panama again, thanks Gustavo and the wonderful experiences we had in Panama. In the meantime, I will be recommending Panama Diverso Tours & Serives to everyone! Services we had: 1. Airport to hotel pick up and drop-offs 2. Panama Canal and City Tour 3. Boat ride, Monkey Island & Gatun Lake 4. Canoe ride, Waterfall & Embera Village
