San Blas is one of the last pristine island archipelagos in this world with the indigenous Guna Yala population that to this day still lives in a very simple and happy way. We offer one of our most popular San Blas Tour visiting some of the most beautiful islands in San Blas. While other tours will take you to overcrowded beaches, our islands are in unique locations.

I absolutely enjoyed...
Published on May, 2025
I absolutely enjoyed visiting all the islands, not even disappointed at all. A big shout to the driver for picking us up from 5am and dropping us off by 7pm! And a big shout to the people of Guna territory for taking care of us from each island.

The air conditioned van was very comfortable and our driver was experienced maneuvering around the many curves and steep inclines/declines along the way.
The boat crew were slso excellent navigator as they took us to various beautiful islands.
Lunch was tasty, with choices of chicken, fish, and vegetarian dishes plus a drink.
