Paradise found in its purest form. This incredible journey takes you to the jungles of Chagres, where you will encounter the Embera Indians.

You will soon forget the outside world as you are immersed in their cultural dance and music. Visitors are invited to explore the area’s abundant variety of birds and wildlife during a jungle trek that includes a visit to local waterfalls.

    Portobello was a market town as well as a fortress. It came to life at least once a year during the trading fairs, when the town took on an air of bustle and excitement between 40 to 60 days. The houses were crowded with people, the square and the streets crammed with goods, the Customs House with chests of gold and silver, and the port filled with vessels. Portobello became the emporium of the riches of the two worlds, the most important commercial depot of that period and paradise for the pirates. Although Portobello was substantially built and protected by four strong fortresses and several minor batteries, the town was repeatedly taken by British and other marauder. Sir Francis Drake died in Portobello and has an island name after him where he was supposedly buried. In this tour you will also visit the Lookout at Gatun Locks where you will be able to see the operation of the Panama Canal at the Caribbean Locks of the Panama Canal and the biggest Locks at the Canal.

Notes: The transit of ships is subject to the local authorities. It is not guaranteed to see a ship transiting as it depends on the traffic schedule of each day.
