The 15–20 minute hike to the waterfall involves walking on a jungle path that may be slippery and have larger rocks, so we strongly recommend wearing water shoes or Crocs.

5.00This excursion provided an incredible look at nature in it's rarest form. Our driver Douglas guide provided pleasant conversation throughout the ride. The indigenous people were kind and friendly. The waterfall was absolutely breathtaking. Our guide Italiano was especially helpful in helping us to maneuver our walk to the waterfall. When we returned to the village area we were greeted with local music. Their performance was heartwarming and genuine. The history of the people was fascinating. The food they served was really tasty and well presented.
Loved it

5.00Richard was an outstanding guide and extremely knowledgeable about Panama and the Embera people. He entertained us with his insight and endless well of facts about Noriega, the relationship between Panama and the United States, etc. I would def recommend! Oh, and def wear water shoes not flip flops maybe even tennis shoes you can get wet. The climbing around the waterfall is not flip flop safe and barefoot is not comfortable, and bring water and a hat.
Rewarding cultural experience with Richard the best guide in Panama.

5.00The best part of our trip was our guide Richard. He was so engaging and helpful. He stopped at some key locations in the city and told us a lot about the history of Panama. Throughout the drive he was a wealth of knowledge and history including his own as a Panamanian growing up. 5 stars for tour but 10 star rating for Richard !!
Interesting trip

5.00Very happy with the experience and the guide was very informative. Not sure I believe the village makes all the items available for sale but that did not deter from the experience.
Great tour!
