Great! Our tour guide Ruben (almost like the sandwich) was outstanding. Juan Carlos of JCA made us happy. Loved Panamá.

We had a very nice day driving to the village getting on a canoe and seeing the beautiful landscaping Ruben was an excellent guide. He gave us lots of information. It was enjoyable to see the people dancing and the fish and fruit was spectacular. This was a good experience, and a really great thing to do on your visit to Panama

This tour we loved because we connected with the true Panamanian culture. Spending time with the indigenous people and getting to know their culture was a rewarding experience. We loved their craftsmanship, their friendliness, charisma and especially the fish and patacones. The best I've ever eaten.

Alejandro, with his intimate knowledge and personal relationships with the Embera people, provided us an amazing opportunity to personally meet with the Embera people and enjoy a meal and a dance with them. Highly recommended. Alejandro is a joy to work with.
