Activity itinerary

Chagres River
  • 3h
  • Admission ticket not included
Your adventure will begin when a friendly guide choices you up at your Panama City hotel 8:00 am. You will arrive at the shores of Lake Alajuela where the Emberá will meet you with their handmade dugout canoe.   You will embark on a 30-60 minute boat ride (time depends of water level in the river).  You will pass through virgin rain forest and see many birds, such as herons, egrets, osprey, possibly toucans and wild parrots, as well as turtles, maybe a caiman and if you are lucky a sloth, otter or monkeys from the boat.  If the water level is high enough you can stop at a local waterfall for a quick dip on the way to the village. Upon arrival in the village you will be greeted with a traditional greeting of music and seated in a typical community hut you will be treated to a fascinating presentation by the Emberá about their history, culture and how they live.
