This was a great excursion. Enrique was wonderful. He explained a lot about the history of Panama and the canal. He is good at getting the monkeys to come and great at finding sloths. He also helped people not on our excursion with seeing animals. I would do this tour again. It was a good tour!!

Enrique was an amazing guide! He is like a walking google of panamá history. The tour is perfectly planned to get just the right glimpse of nature, local cuisine and close encounter with monkeys. I booked it less than 12 hours before and had no problem at all. Highly recommended!

Enrique was an excellent guide and naturalist. He is knowledgeable about animals, plants, geography, geology and cultures throughout his home region. A proud Panamanian sharing his backyard along one of Winders of the World.

Enrique was extremely thoughtful and had a lot of knowledge to share with our tour group. He met us promptly at pickup and then on the way to the boat, he spotted a sloth. Even though it was raining, he was prepared and had ponchos and snacks ready for us. On the tour, we were able to see sloths, crocodiles, monkeys, birds, etc. Would definitely recommend this excursion to everyone!

I do not see how you can advertise this as a boat tour to Monkey island for $60 and then charge an extra $20 for the boat ride! I have been advising everyone on social media to beware of Viator tours.

Enrique is a phenomenal tour guide. This is a fantastic value for the low price. The van showed up at our hotel perfectly on time. It was air conditioned and quite comfortable throughout the afternoon. We saw monkeys, sloths, crocodiles, turtles and lots of birds. We got to ride in a boat in the actual Panama Canal, as well as walked through the beautiful rain forest. We also had fresh pineapple from the side of the road as well as some outstanding empanadas.

The tour started with a short ride from the hotel to the Gamboa area, where we met a guy who would take us on a boat trip to Monkey Island and through the canal. He found a quiet place to dock where he told us we could watch one of the sea birds stalk and kill a baby crocodile, and it took a while, but that is exactly what happened! Amazing! The three species of monkeys all came to the boat and some boarded it to take food offerings from our hands, which was very cool. They would touch us gently in the process, and there was nothing to fear. Then off to a nature walk through a sanctuary where we saw sloths and a family of howler monkeys jumping from tree to tree over our foot path. Enrique had lots of local knowledge and commentary on the locale and the species we saw throughout the half day event. . Excellent service.
