Transport time of 2h and 2h return. Beautiful place, but dirty. Simple boat without cover, wet when it rains (was our case). Poor food and no hygiene at all. I do not recommend, especially if it is by the hotel agency where we stayed Decapolis Hotel.
Nosotros no estamos ofreciendo la gira a Isla Grande desde hace mucho tiempo, se ha equivocado de empresa.
We loved the tour and the agency also excellent their attention! At the time we went to Playa Blanca there were water games on the weekends!
Muchas gracias Nicole. Fue un placer conocerlas. También haber platicado sobre las costumbres peruanas y panameñas. El. Tour en la playa fue super divertido con todo lo que hicimos jeje. Un abrazo. Nos vemos en Perú o en Panamá en su próximo viaje :)
We had an amazing time on our tour of Portobelo and Isla Grande. Our guide Thomas was very knowledgeable and friendly and Alejandro was super friendly arranging the tour. Fabulous tour if your looking for a historical tour with incredible views
Thank you so much. We are very glad you enjoyed the tour to Portobelo and Isla Grande, a tour that combines historical sites and a beautiful beach.
Since arriving in Panama I chose to do my excursions (big island and Embera community) with Monkey adventures for the competitive price and exceeded my expectations in Service. The guide is complete and answer your questions. The most pleasant thing was that when they took me to Isla Grande, because they did not cancel the visit although I was the only tourist interested that day, the talk and the coexistence with the guides was very enjoyable and even detoured a little at my request to show me the community of the island. They won't regret it.
Muchas gracias Fernando: Fue un gusto que hayas disfrutado de los dos paseos que hiciste con nosotros. En Isla Grande sin duda nos divertimos bastante y disfrutamos también de hacer el paseo por la comunidad de la isla. Fue un placer haberte conocido. Esperamos que regreses próximamente a Panamá para quedarte más días y te deseamos un excelente regreso a México. Saludos
