This is a real Embera experience that begins with a beautiful canoe ride on the Chagres River.
From the moment we arrive at the port, the Emberas will welcome you wearing their traditional guayuco and the amburá. Breathtaking views of the Panamanian jungle. We may need to hike anywhere from 5 - 15 minutes to reach the refreshing waterfall (it varies during summer time)
Finally, you make it to a Real Village that looks like a postcard from 50 years ago. Dances, traditional food, and handicraft items are shown to you by the Embera ladies. One on one session to speak to them, laugh, and share experiences.
Important:
*This tour is offered from hotels in Panama City. * Requests from resorts outside of Panama City such as Gamboa, Playa Bonita, Decameron or Playa Blanca will have an additional cost

My trip to Panama ended up getting cancelled due to airline delays. Sorhay very kindly offered me a 90% refund even though the tour was clearly listed as non-refundable. I hear great things from my friends about her and look forward to scheduling another trip in the future!

Sorhay is a wonder, not only does she take care of every detail during your time with her, she is a delight to spend time with, and a wealth of information. What’s unique about her is that she actually knows the people you meet throughout the tour and has real relationships with the indigenous people and restaurant/shop owners, and workers. This is our second tour with her and we look forward to her curating our next adventure next year.
