Departure Point

Traveler pickup is offered

  • Chagres National Park, Colon, Panama
    Your day will start with your hotel pickup, were you will be escorted to A/C vehicle, where a knowledgeable guide will be awaiting to provide you with an overview of Panama on the your way to the jungles of the Central Region. Your host will prepare you for the cultural feast you are about to experience by sharing the history and customs of the Emberá Indians. These are the keepers of the Rainforest and Chagres River. When you arrive at the Chagres National Park, you will leave the comfort of your vehicle to board the dugout canoes that will take you to the Emberá Village. Although not the most luxurious, these dug outs are sturdy and worthy craft which were critical in the conquering of the jungle and in establishing supply lifelines for both Indians and Spanish. After motoring up river, you will see the village emerge from the jungle as if by magic. Keep your eyes open along the way, as the region offers abundant wildlife that is particularly active along the river’s edge.

Enjoyed every moment of the Embera Indian Village tour, from the food, history, dancing and market items they created. Will definitely be back.

This was an excellent tour, departing from our cruise ship docked in Colon. Joe, our tour guide, was encyclopedic in his knowledge of Panama, and prepared us well for our visit to the village. On the bus ride the driver spotted a pair of sloths in a tree just off the highway and pulled over to let us out to observe them in the wild. The canoe ride up the river was almost like entering a time machine, despite the modern outboard motors on the dugout canoes. The people were kind and welcoming, although they would probably rather be living as their ancestors did rather than have to resort to tourism - the National Forest that has taken over their lands doesn't allow them to hunt or cut down a tree. Visit this place. Be respectful of these people. And learn something new.

If you are interested in an educational and cultural tour this is for you! Alejandra, our guide, is an excellent guide!! She picked us up on time, she started speaking about everything regarding Panama since we got in her car. I was surprised of all her knowledge about everything in Panama! I hope I get to come back and visit Panama in the future and I hope I find Alejandra again!! The people in the village are very kind, they are willing to spark to you about their every day living. I also would like to mention that the village people are very talented in their arts and crafts that they sell in their village! Their prices much cheaper than other places. I rate this trip a 5 stars!! With this agency through trip advisor!!
