Great Time in Panama

Published on May, 2025

Aura was very knowledgeable and shared information on what to expect. She speaks English and Spanish very well. She knows great spots to pick up souvenirs. I recommend this trip to everyone who visits Panama.

Amazing time!

Published on Mar, 2025

Had a wonderful time exploring the canal and the wild life in the area on a private boat tour with Aura. She is an incredible guide, One of the best I’ve ever worked with. This is definitely a “must see” experience!

Best Panama tour with an ausome guide

Published on Feb, 2025

We spent about 5+ hours with our guide Aura. She is the best guide ever! She knows her stuff, is open to last minute adjustments in travel. She is an excellent driver and very entertaining. The tour itself is definitely worth it. We were out on Gaton lake and saw many monkeys up close. The sanctuary was a real treat and although we could not pet a sloth, they were pretty close. I highly recommend this tour and when we return to Panama City we will be looking for tours with Aura. Well done, Aura!!!!!

Great tour and guide

Published on Jan, 2025

We did the monkey boat tour with Aura. Great experience. We saw lots of monkeys, birds, and other wildlife up close. Aura was an awesome guide. Highly recommend this tour and company!

Great day for our first time in Panama and to see the natural habitat of monkeys and birds, etc. thank you

Published on Jan, 2025

Fun adventure to see the wildlife on Gatun Lake. Richard our guide was very knowledgeable, not only about the wildlife, monkeys and birds, but also about the history of the Panama Canal and how he grew up in the zone.
