パナマシティ発バヤノキャニオニング

It is a really fantastic program! Our guide was absolutely great — friendly, kind, funny and genuinely caring. He shared lots of interesting information with us, but never overwhelmed us with talking. Informative when we wanted to know more, and quiet when we simply wanted to enjoy the adventure. The cave itself was the perfect length. Long enough to feel like a real adventure, but not so long that you come out exhausted — just pleasantly tired and very satisfied. We honestly didn't expect to see so much wildlife along the way. Definitely one of those moments when you think, “Okay, this is an adventure!” 😄 The cave is great fun to explore, with some more adventurous sections along the way. Headlamps are provided by the organiser, which is very useful. Looking back, our only regret is that we didn't bring a camera in a dry bag. A waterproof GoPro would definitely be a good idea. And then came the lunch — absolutely delicious! The local people who prepared it were incredibly sweet, friendly and welcoming. I was curious about how they made the food, so I asked, and they happily showed me and explained the recipe. Overall, this was a memorable experience from beginning to end. Great adventure, great people, beautiful surroundings and some genuinely unexpected moments. Highly recommended!

What is expected and so much more. Bring good water shoes and be ready for alot of walking. Careful not to get stuck in the mud walking toward the boat. 3 small alligators inside the cave wan a real real unexpected surprise. A wee bit scary for that yet highly recommend.

We went to Panama City and asked our Hotel for a reference to a tour guide. They recommended these folks. They were also mentioned in our Fodors Travel book. We were not disappointed. We have NEVER taken a guided tour anywhere. We drove out of the City through the Panamanian countryside. The lake is stunning and we had a great boat ride. The cave and canyon are a once in a lifetime experience. The footing is pretty good. I'm a bit short to step up out of the cave at end of the tour but no big deal. This is a real nature lovers tour with bats, cool water, fish, dark, light, insects and knowledgeable people. We were treated to snacks, cervezas and Cokes afterwards. We had lunch in a countryside restaurant where we saw a family of Howler Monkeys. We met some beautiful indigenous people. Totally terrific and we will go back.

We highly recommend this trip with Javier to see this spectacular cave. We enjoyed the drive, the boat ride on the lake to access the cave and all of the nature in the surrounding area. The cave tour was fantastic; refreshing waters, unique wildlife, beautiful cave formations. It is a ‘must-do’ adventure to discover a unique version of Panama’s special beauty.

This tour was spectacular! I highly recommend it. The cave itself was gorgeous w/ many interesting formations and shapes, and there were multiple pools where you could swim. There were many dark parts where you used a headlamp and also areas where there were holes and natural sunlight came through-I enjoyed the juxtaposition. There are also lots of bats at a certain part of the cave but they do their own thing. It felt truly magical. It's also not super challenging, but does make you work a little which sweetens the experience. Before you get to the cave, you take a boat across Bayano Lake which was also beautiful. At the end of the cave tour, you get some delicious homemade fish and platonos! Don't miss this tour!

This was one of the best experience of my life. The guide, Javier was amazing and I really recommend other people to try it!

We went on the Bayano Canyoning tour with Javier and his companion. It was the best tour I've been on in a while. How often do you get to walk through a water cave with thousands of bats flying over you? Javier and his companion were very experienced. We felt perfectly safe throughout the whole tour. The hike wasn't to bad. It took us about 1 hour to get to the other side of the cave and only 30 mins to get back. I highly recommend to wear good hiking boots. Because it's dark and slippery in thr cave. After the hike we got to enjoy a delicious meal made by the local villagers. I'm definitely coming back for another tour next time I'm visiting Panama!

We went on the Bayano Cavern trip with Javier. Javier was very responsive and flexible with our needs. The whole trip was very smooth, well organized and safe. Both the lake and the caves are an amazing place to visit. On the boat trip to the caves, we got great views of the lake and lots of birds including cormorants and ospreys. Entering the cavern, we waded through the river and saw the beautiful formations inside. Walking in the water over the slippery rocks takes some care and getting used to, but is not particularly difficult for people used to hiking. Hiking boots are a good idea, and the water temperature is cool. We saw lots of wildlife including frogs, fish and many bats inside the cave. In some places it is dark and requires headlamps, in other places the light passes through the tops illuminating the cave with cool light. At the end of the cavern we swam in the clear water of the lagoon, where we also saw a toucan and hummingbirds. We returned to the entrance on the same route, and then ate a delicious lunch before getting back on the boat to return to the car, change clothes (and watch some monkeys), then drive back. The caverns are a unique and beautiful place and there's great opportunities to see wildlife. Javier is experienced and responsible and knows the area very well. Overall the trip was a great experience.

The guide was great! The bats were amazing and in the millions. Hard walk and climb but worth it. Don’t let the time commitment overwhelm you, it goes by fast

This was an absolutely amazing experience. Our guide, Orlando was knowledgeable and made the journey fun and educational. Lake Bayano is massive and after a boat ride to the other side of the lake you enter the cave/canyon system. The hike through the caves was filled with challenges like climbing over large rock formations, wading through chest high water and even an opportunity to do a little cliff jump. After the hike you have a hot lunch waiting with fresh fish, tostones and some of the juiciest fruits I have ever had. If you are visiting Panama I highly recommend this excursion and make sure to ask for Orlando.
