View on Google MapsJuan was a very knowledgeable and pleasant guide. We saw and learned about a variety of wildlife. I recommend this tour!
Fantastic tour to learn about the ecological landscape of Panama. If you enjoy nature, want to see animals and plant life, and want to get away from the overtly “touristy” tours, this is the tour for you! Juan was a knowledgeable, intelligent guide for our day and the small group format was fantastic. Juan picked us up at a reasonable hour from our hotel and we drove a short distance to Gambia. We learned about the local and regional wildlife and saw quite a few animals. We had lunch at a non-tourist local restaurant. Definitely a great experience!
Good day traveling with our guide. Juan was very knowledgeable of nature - the animals, trees and flowers of the area. Saw many monkeys during a boat tour, and short hikes in Sobernia.

Hector, Diego and Brian were all very kind to us on the tour. Hector was very knowledgeable about the canal and wildlife. Diego and Brian also shared some valuable information during the trip. Our weather was very good sunny and not too hot. However, we did not see as much wildlife as we thought we would have liked. We do realize that this is not a for certain part of the tour. We did see several species of monkeys, birds, and even some cayman. We enjoyed a very nice lunch overlooking the river.
Wonderful experience. Guide Hector & driver Diego were very friendly. Hector is very qualifed regarding the animal, botanic and canal information. We got amazing pictures of wild animals and well understood the canal history In total much more than expected.
Wonderful way to see the canal and lake up close. We saw three kinds of monkeys and fed them mango and banana. That was by far our favorite part of the tour. The walk in the rain forest is very hot--take water or get it at one of the stops along the way. We also had lunch at the fish market, which was a request that our guides Hector and Diego honored. It was fun to eat fried fish with them! We learned a lot.
Great tour with an informative guide, definitely recommend this tour for anyone visiting Panama City.
We booked 4 days with Juan and Hector for our family of 4. Juan did a great job. We booked him for the Monkey Island tour, a Canal and Casca Viejo tour, a day at the Embrera Village and the Sleeping Indian Girl hike in Anton Valley. What a great 4 days learning more about Panama and seeing so much! Juan was super easy to work with in getting ready for our trip. He picked us up and we made some stops along the way for roadside stands (sugarcane juice!). Juan was a great tour guide and provided so much knowledge on Panama! We had a great day with Hector at Anton Valley. It was definitely a serious hike, but totally doable for my family with two teenagers. And well worth it for the views! We would totally recommend Manakin for anyone looking for a great trip to Panama.
An amazing experience! Juan was an incredible guide. We saw lots of monkeys, birds, and other animals.
Our kids will never forget the day they got to feed monkeys from their hands while cruising a boat in the Panama Canal. Our tour guide Hector could not haven more knowledgeable and fun four our family of five visiting from Texas.
