Discover the local wildlife of Panama's rainforest and its surroundings, visiting the centres for nature conservation. The journey begins from Panama City, where you'll be whisked away to the public marina in the verdant Gamboa Rainforest. From there, board a small boat and navigate through the Chagres River to the Panama Canal and Gatun Lake.

The first stop is Monkey Island, a haven for diverse wildlife. Here, under the guidance of your tour guide, you'll have the opportunity to spot an abundance of creatures in their natural habitat. Following this, the tour continues to the Gamboa Sloth Sanctuary. This sanctuary offers a chance to learn about these fascinating creatures, as well as butterflies, orchids, and dotted frogs.

Afterwards, savour a meal at a traditional local restaurant, known as a Fonda. The final leg of the tour involves a hike along the former US pipeline trail. Keep your eyes peeled for more wildlife sightings - from rodents and deer to toucans - while learning about the various trees that populate this ecosystem. This half-day tour promises not only entertainment but also education, making it a must-do for any nature enthusiast.
