Paseo en kayak por el río Chagres
Descripción
Explore remar en un kayak por el hermoso río Chagres antes de que se fusione en el lago Gatún, donde los enormes barcos y embarcaciones transitan de océano a océano. El río Chagres es el principal afluente de agua del Canal. Una vía fluvial tranquila, que disfruta del sonido de la vida salvaje de este denso bosque tropical. Es posible que tenga la oportunidad de ver un perezoso en un árbol, un pájaro colorido que vive pacíficamente en la selva o en la cima de las plantas de agua, caimanes, tortugas, entre muchas otras especies de la fauna local. Después de una corta caminata al pequeño puerto utilizado por los indígenas Embera en Gamboa, el recorrido dura aproximadamente 1 hora y 20 minutos (en el kayak) siempre acompañado por nuestro guía bilingüe y probablemente también por un guía Embera del área que conoce el lugar. Mejor que nadie.

I had a fantastic time kayaking with our guide and my three children. Another family was also on the tour. It was great to meet other people! We had beautiful weather and saw lots of fantastic birds. It’s amazing to watch a ship go by on the canal when sitting inside a kayak. Would highly recommend this as a way to experience the region and also get in some activity for activity for your body!
Thank you so much for your kind review! It means a lot. I am glad you have enjoyed the kayaking experience
Great way to mix up a trip to Panama that otherwise might be a lot of city, beach and more cultural activities. Nearby, the kayaking allowed us to see a National Park and we even met people from the Embera community. Christian was a knowledgable guide who shifted our outing to the afternoon crucially to avoid morning rain.
Thank you very much for taking time for the review, It is important for us. We are glad you've enjoyed the experience
We spent most of our time kayaking in the middle of the chagres river instead of along the sides where more wildlife would have been able to be viewed. We were not able to look up in the trees for monkeys sloths or toucans. Therefore we saw no wildlife. Also, Christian took a couple pictures of us kayaking and said he would send them and never did. I’ve sent 3 emails to him requesting the pictures and he hasn’t even responded to my request.
Thanks for the information. We haven’t gotten any reservations for that activity in this season in VIATOR or TRIPADVISOR so I imagine the booking was made using a different platform. Unfortunately, we cannot control the weather conditions and wildlife. Lately it has been very windy and with the present of many aquatic plants which make it very hard to be along the sides. The wildlife in the National Park is amazing but it is never guaranteed to see animals close by, to increase the chances of spotting animals such monkeys, you could take some of the tours to Monkey Island where people can interact with them. Regarding your emails, we’ve been checking, and we can confirm that we haven’t received any notifications asking for the pictures, otherwise we would have replied pleasantly. Please contact us directly via email or WhatsApp or let us know your contact details (privately) and we will gladly send you the photos taken. We are at your service if you have any further questions.
We had a ton of fun on our family kayaking tour on the Chagres River. The surrounding jungle was so beautiful and our guide did a great job highlighting the wonders of the area. He was also really good with our kids, which is always appreciated.
thanks for your review. I am very glad you and your family enjoyed the activity
Great experience. Christian was great company and very knowledgeable on everything we encountered on the lake. Would highly recommend, a salubrious way to spend a morning in Panama.
I am glad you enjoyed the activity and thanks for the review, it means a lot for us.
The perfect mix: friends, nature, culture and exercise. Reach the community by kayak, sail in the waters of the canal, meet an indigenous community and enjoy a nice day at the beach. The best experience. Super recommended
We got to see howler monkeys howling, lots of birds, and were about as close to the Canal as kayaks are allowed to get. Christian was an excellent guide, very friendly and helpful.
Thank you very much for your review. It means a lot to me. I am glad you enjoyed the tour.
