The area boasts a diversity of over 900 plant species and 114 different mammals including Baird’s tapirs, whitetail deer, Geoffroy’s spider monkeys, and all five species of majestic big cats. Birdwatchers will appreciate the 396 species of avian life present, including stripe-cheeked woodpeckers, red-legged honeycreepers, violet-capped hummingbirds, and the elusive harpy eagles. The wildlife richness extends to include 96 reptile species, 79 amphibian species, and 59 species of freshwater fish.

• IMPORTANT - FOR LAST MINUTE BOOKINGS ONLY: You need to obtain a verbal confirmation from our office to confirm your tour. If you have not received our confirmation or an itinerary from our office team, the tour is NOT CONFIRMED and it will be scheduled for the following day.
• If the water level of the river is too high or too low, this tour does not include the tour to the waterfall. We will attempt to substitute the waterfall with another option where guests can bathe in the Gamboa River. During the rainy season, with high amounts of rain or during dry seasons with drought like conditions, we reserve the right to skip this part of the tour for the safety of our guests
• THERE IS A SURCHARGE FOR PICK UP AND DROP OFF AT HOTELS OUTSIDE OF PANAMA CITY, SUCH AS TOCUMEN, COSTA DEL ESTE, PLAYA BONITA AND OTHERS. Please select the relevant booking option or kindly send us a message.
• The 15-20 minute hike to the waterfall involves walking on a jungle path that may be slippery and have larger rocks that travelers need to step over. We DO NOT recommend this waterfall portion of the tour to those who have mobility issues, back problems, knee or foot injuries or any other medical concerns that would limit your hiking ability. Please use caution and judge your own abilities. Those who choose not to participate in the waterfall portion of the tour can stay back and wait in the piragua boat with one of the Embera guides.
