5.00Better than expected. Very punctual, lake gatun is stunning, and the aerial tram ride is actually worth it. Would recommend for an easy day trip from Panama City.

5.00We stayed at the Westin and Joseph from Panamazing hod us all set up and we had a great time, saw some monkeys, sloths, big freighters’s coming through the canal and an aerial tram with some amazing views. Pick up from the hotel and the return was great and the driver was well prepared with cold bottles of water and snacks. Fun day!

5.00Wonderful trip! Perfect half day in which we saw the canal and then went on the lake and saw the wildlife. Our tour guide, Roberto McBarnette, was great. Very knowledgeable. And booming with Maria Capellan at the resort was a breeze.
Great excursion!!!

5.00Relatively small group which was nice. The boat ride to see three different types of monkeys was the highlight. The view from the observation tower was beautiful with 360 view of the Chagres River and Gatun Lake. The buffet lunch served at the visitor center had good Panamanian food
This combo tour included...

5.00This combo tour included a boatride in the Panama Canal, a boatride in Gatun Lake to Monkey Islands, visits from monkeys onto the tour boat; a tram ride through the rainforest, a climb to the observation tower with breathtaking views at the top! We saw butterflies, orchids and beautiful but poisonous frogs at the frog farm and sloths! The guides were awesome and made the tour so educational as well ensuring that we had a safe a highly memorable experience. If you travel to Panama City, Panama this tour should absolutely be included in your itinerary!! I can’t recommend highly enough!!
Do it !!
