Private Panama Canal Boat + Wildlife Search





Description
This is an lovely, private and smooth boat ride at the Gatun Lake. We search for the panamanian jungle loudest animal: Howler Monkeys, also White Faced Capuchins, sloths, birds and more. Our experience is your introduction to the rainforest, worry free, because you see it from afar. Of course, a safe short hike can be added as per your request. You will appreciate the wildlife from a safe distance, although, we might have a close encounter and if that opportunity presents itself, you decide how close. We like organic, unplanned, go with the flow kind, for families and couples. You get on the boat and we take care lf the rest.

We will go through this jungle, by car and may stop, if an animal is passing by. We do our very best to find monkeys, a sloth, the leaf cutter ants and simply enjoy the magic of the panamanian rainforest.
We will enjoy a beautiful Private, relaxing ride on the Panama Canal Gatun Lake, next to the huge ships transiting from Ocean to Ocean.

Worth the private tour. The stated focus was to locate wildlife and WOW! It exceeded my already high expectations. Sorhay spotted several low hanging sloths, a common basilisk (Jesus lizard) and an Agouti, all before we even got to lake Gatun. There we saw a crocodile, many white-faced capuchins, Geoffroy's tamarins and howler monkeys. It was amazing. Sorhay was the ultimate guide with a true passion for nature and was just as excited as we were. She also took us to a local neighborhood for some amazing Panamanian oxtail and visited a great coffee shop. Overall it was an amazing day. I highly recommend this your for people that want to explore nature and authentic culture.
Wooooo hoooooo! Thank you dears Mr. Michael and Mr. James. Better lucky than good… anytime… We were at the right places at the right time… Loved spending the day with you guys and learning a bit about the nest structured city in the whole USA: Chicago. I am thankful that you chose us and we were able to deliver! See you next time, Much love for both of you! Sorhay
Lilly was an excellent guide and naturalist. Our family had a great time seeing the monkeys, sloths and birds. We also saw an iguana and crocodile. Lilly was able to spot the animal and talk about their habitats. The boat driver was excellent and we travelled in and out of inlets in search of animals. It was beautiful!
Hola Mrs Susan. I am Happy to read this review about your day with my Lili. She took you to one of our favourite spots to experience the “real” panamanian jungle away from everyone else. I am sending your pics and videos shortly. How is the at cruise going? Sure is fantastic! It was an honor to serve you and show you a bit of Panama! Sorhay (on behalf of Lili)
Excellent and very personable guide. She started us with a stop for local coffee to start the tour then monkeys, sloths, boat ride on Gatun, stopped at the locks and watched 2 ships pass. Watched the Panama Canal movie at the IMAX at the locks. Highly recommend this tour.

Thank you Thank you Thank You Thank You for this review and for taking your precious time to do it! Keep traveling and enjoying life to the fullest :-) Hugs Sorhay
Very knowledgeable and empathetic guide! We were able to see and interact with multiple kinds of monkeys. Our guide knew how to find and attract them in a way superior to any other boat tour around us. She topped the wonderful nature trip off with a few additional culinary stops at the city on our way back, which were wonderful. Her advice for the rest of our trip made it successful, too!
My darlings. I am going to keep this answer short. Lucky me to have a free life therapy with Dr Leah…. I need some more please!!! I loved spending the day with you guys and was very happy to be luckier than the other boats… hahaha I know how busy your life’s are and I can’t thank you enough for writing these lines!. Todá rabá, Gracias Thank youuuuuuu Hugs Sorhay
Our guide, Alexis, was incredibly knowledgeable and made the experience very unique. He took us to amazing places where we enjoyed local coffee, experienced wildlife up close, and witnessed the locks in full operation.
