Itinerary

 

Enjoy the unique opportunity to be inside the Panama Canal Watershed as you travel to the Gatun Lake eco-cruise and visit the Monkey Islands, where you can see several species of monkeys and lush natural landscapes.


Start with an afternoon pickup at your city hotel and get ready to see more species of animals. Hop aboard a high-speed motorboat and marvel at the breathtaking flora and fauna surrounding Gatun Lake.


The lake is one of the sets of locks in the Panama Canal, on the Pacific side. There, you will have an ecological experience in the region, where you can sail by the lake and see animals and the surrounding forest.


Enjoy stops at Monkey Island, home to several species of monkeys that are native to Central America. Monkey Island boasts an incredible amount of wildlife. Stay on the lookout for capuchin monkeys, Geoffroy's tamarin and howler, and other species.


If you are lucky, come close to some of the large ships that transit the canal daily.


We will get back to the city around 5:30 pm
