The Panama Canal: Trek & Cruise Tour
Tour info
Why take this tour?
The best place to experience The Panama Canal is in the former U.S. Canal Zone town of Gamboa, where The Chagres River meets Gatun Lake in Soberania National Park. Here you will enjoy one of the most famous wildlife viewing and bird watching trails in the world, The Pipeline Road, where the world record for the most bird species seen in a 24 hour period was set 11 years in a row. This tour consists of a hike through the tropical rainforest with a knowledgeable guide, and among capuchin and howler monkeys, toucans and sloths, you will learn about Panama's history and culture. But better than this, you will also cruise on an outboard engine boat next to ships that transit through the isthmus. You'll understand the ecology and history behind The Panama Canal and Gatun lake. We'll cruise the side channels of the canal, the biodiverse area of The Monkey Islands, where we're likely to see more monkeys, crocodiles and exotic birds.

About operator:
The epicenter of where our activities start is in the tropics, right above the equator (8.96o N 79.53o W) in the Republic of Panama. A strip of rainforest minutes away from downtown of the capital, Panama City sustains one of the modern engineering marvels of all time (The Panama Canal) and hosts one of the most biodiverse places on earth. This is where two experienced guides come together and combine the greatest potentials of the isthmus, the tropical rainforests, the two oceans and the Canal that binds them. Being a transit point to many, gives us the advantage to share the regions culture, history and ecology. Having two coasts is access to unlimited sources of fun and entertainment. Our tours are designed for all people and all ages that make Panama a worthwhile place for adventure and vacation. Tropical Kingfisher Tours is an initiative to make tourism sustainable and an opportunity for development. Our organization channels these potentials for real change and experience.
