5.00We all loved this tour! Hector is well informed about life in the mangroves; and knows all the best spots to stop. We even stopped at a remote spot in the jungle and had coffee with the howler monkeys nearby. I would highlty recommend going out with Hector and his team!

5.00Hector and Tom gave us a great tour. It is awesome to kayak through the mangroves. We saw howler monkeys, iguana, and birds. The guides were friendly, very helpful, and spoke passable English. They provided water, snacks, and binoculars. Kayak equipment and life vests were all in excellent condition. A fun afternoon!
Go out of your way to do this tour!

5.00Seriously - if you’re passing through David on your way to Boquete or elsewhere, take the time to stay a few hours and do this tour. Hector and Yuan took us out for a few hours this afternoon and the tranquility and beauty was certainly a highlight of our time in Panama. We saw amazing wildlife including crabs, two different types of monkeys, and incredible birds - even an osprey and duck-billed heron. The coffee break (literally!) was a perfect rest to stretch our legs and enjoy the scenery and shade. To top it all off, Hector sent a file of professional-grade photos and videos throughout the day. A few tips: - the kayaking was not difficult and the waters are calm, so don’t worry about how extreme it will be - we had two single kayaks, would recommend that over a double
The best experience in nature!

5.00The tour we did with them by kayak was in the mangroves of David, in the province of Chiriquí, The punctuality characterizes them and they were already waiting for us to perform the experience, we had never kayaked before and explained in detail everything we should know before leaving, we left on schedule and went inside the mangroves with the high tide , after a while of tour we could observe monkeys and some birds until sunset, it was a fully recommended experience.

5.00I enjoyed sunrise kayaking with Hector. It’s important to know that the time selected is not exact - you need to leave at high tide in order to kayak in the mangroves. The kayak is a relaxed pace and beginner-friendly - more about enjoying the surroundings than getting in a workout! I recommend this tour!

5.00My friends and I did the Kayaking tour in early March and it was fantastic. We ere picked up and dropped off at our hotel by our guides, Héctor and Raúl. There were 3 of us, so two went in one kayak and the third went in a second one along Raúl. Raúl was very kind and knowledgeable about what was going on. Speaking both Spanish and English, he was able to communicate with our entire group. We kayaked for about 4 hours and got to watch a beautiful sunset. All in all, a wonderful way to spend an afternoon in Chiriqui! Mis amigos y yo hicieron el tour de Kayaking en el principio de marzo y ¡era fantástico! Los guias, Héctor y Raúl, nos recogaron y dejaron al hotel. Estuvemos 3 en total, así dos usamos un kayak y el tercer usó el otro con Raúl. Raúl era muy simpático e informado sobre lo que pasó. Él habló en ambos inglés y español, así comunicó con todo el grupo. Montamos los kayaks por 4 horas, más o menos, y vimos un atardecer muy bonito. En total, era una manera perfecta para para una tarde.
Beautiful Kayak-Sunset-Tour

5.00It was a perfect trip! A great three hours tour through the Mangroves, along beautiful tropical trees, big birds and a funny experience in the Bahía de los Muertos. The Highlight at the end was an amazing sunset while sitting in the kayak. We were picked up by the guide Hector directly from the hostel at 2.30 pm and returned at 8.30 pm. He was very friendly and helpful. It was a private tour just for us. Any experiences in kayaking are not required. It was a amazing adventure which we recommend!
