Gatun Lake
We start the day with pick ups in Panama City. Your day begins with a journey into one of the most fascinating intersections of nature and engineering in the world: Gatun Lake, a vast manmade lake that forms a critical part of the Panama Canal. You'll board a covered motorboat and set off on a wildlife safari through its winding channels and jungle-lined shores. As you cruise across the iconic Panama Canal, you’ll glide past enormous cargo ships and ocean liners, sharing the lake with vessels from around the world. Your expert local guide will take you off the main canal route and into the hidden backwaters and narrow inlets where the jungle comes alive. Keep your camera ready for capuchin monkeys, tamarin monkeys howler monkeys, sloths, iguanas, toucans, crocodiles, and even basilisk lizards that run across the water. The boat ride offers both awe-inspiring views and rare up-close encounters with Panama’s diverse wildlife.
Panama Canal
Our destination is Gatun Lake, where we will cruise around islands created during the canal construction and see the abundant wildlife on its shores. We will visit the famous Monkey Islands where we can see capuchins, howlers, and tamarins up close in their natural habitat. Once we finish with our canal and lake boat ride.

Excellent experience on the Panama Canal going to Monkey Island. Wuendell, our tour guide was great.

5.00This Panam Canal and monkey island tour was an excellent experience. We got picked on time at the Starbucks at the Albrook mall and from there the tour began. Our tour guide was Wuendell and he was very courteous, knowledgeable and did the absolute best at sharing a great experience. On the canal by boat (Lake Gatun) we got real close passing the big ships and also we got to see VERY CLOSE monkeys and birds of different sorts. After the trip we had a complimentary evening lunch/dinner in the old town. 100% would recommend this experience.

5.00We had a great trip with Daniel been our host. He had great English and shared many facts along the way. We got to see several types of monkey, Toucan and a fresh water crocodile as well may birds and fauna . We had to go into central Panama City for pick up as Casco Viejo was not an option for pick up. We got to see many boats going through the Panama Canal and raced a couple of them. The tour was reasonably priced. Recommend this tour

5.00We were picked up from our air bnb which was great! We traveled by bus to the boat to do our tour of the monkey Islands along the canal. John was very knowledgeable, fun & informative. We saw a few varieties of monkeys, a crocodile, various birds & iguanas:) Unfortunately, we didn't get to see a sloth, perhaps another time.... We finished up with a Panamanian dinner in the square in Casco Viejo, which was fun! It was a great & we enjoyed it:) Janet & Dan NS, Canada

5.00Wendell our guide was awesome! It was the perfect tour for us. We were picked up at our hotel (which wasn’t on the original list) right on time and then as we rode to Lake Gatun we learned of the Panama canals’ importance and history. Once at the lake and on the boat we had a refreshing ride in the morning air to Monkey Island where we saw 3 different types of monkeys, sleeping bats, iguanas, toucans and other birds! Wendell was very knowledgeable and respectful of the local wildlife. Back on land, we were driven to Casco Viejo where we had the best Panamanian brunch food we’d had after 24 days in Panama. My husband and I are not much of an organized tour people - but this was perfect. Not too long, not too many people (10 of us total), lots of great info, a nice boat ride, got to see MONKEYS hanging in their trees and some tasty treats in Casco Viejo.

4.00Learned a lot of about Panama’s natural flora and fauna from our guide. It was nice to see the monkeys and other wildlife up close as well.

5.00We really enjoyed this tour. John was very knowledgeable and shared lots of great information about Panamá, the wildlife, the Canal, and many other subjects. The pick-up and drop-off was very convenient and the bus we travelled in was comfortable and air conditioned. The boat ride was very nice and we were able to see a variety of animals, insects, and vegetation. I was so glad that we were just observing the animals and not interacting with them. We had no desire to disrupt the natural habitat by enticing monkeys with food items. The guides did use different calls to encourage the wildlife to show and that was perfect for us. Also, the lunch was absolutely delicious! I couldn’t finish it all but it was so good that I took my leftovers to eat later. I would definitely recommend this tour!

5.00The Monkey Islands are a must-see when visiting Panama City and the canal. Unlike other boat tours, our guides focused on conservation and the animals' health and safety, which I appreciated. I learned a ton about the local wildlife!
