KEVIN was an AMAZING tour guide!! - Kevin was AMAZING! He was very patient and helpful. Kevin also gave us a history class on our drive there, he also took several pictures of us with his own phone and later sent to me. Definitely request Kevin if you’re booking the tour. Also his personality is wonderful.

Our guide, Dan, went... - Our guide, Dan, went above and beyond to provide an energetic and enthusiastic experience. He was patient, informative, and expert. Dan and our two Embera guides pumped up our kayaks upriver and set up a water experience for us with just the right amount of direction and support when needed. They were all attentive to details and very positive. We pushed through on a lovely waterfall hike when the rains came down hard. Most impressed with Dan and the team's persistence in pulling it off in the pouring rain. The guides took great care in ensuring we were enjoying ourselves yet safely traversing the muddy path. They pushed through the agenda but allowed us flexibility. The village experience was exciting, and we were grateful for the juice, water, and Panamanian fruits and foods we received along the way. Nice touch!

Great tour! - I enjoyed every part of the tour! Charges National Park is beautiful, swimming next to the waterfall was very refreshing, and meeting meeting members of the Embera tribe was really cool! It was a great way to spend the day!

Kayak, waterfall and Embera village - It was a wonderful experience about the culture of indigenous people that still live in the village. The fish and fruit were fresh and delicious. Demetria was our tour guide and was very knowledgeable with history of Panama 🇵🇦 and he was able to capture great pictures for us.

A Truly Amazing Experience..NO LIE!! - It was just as described! Wonderful, humbling, truly amazing experience! Wear closed toe shoes no sandals or crocs it very slippery and you are hiking up hills that are slick with mud! The rocks are slick and the water is ankle to calf deep depending on how tall you are. Yes you walk through water. When you get to the villages...My Goodness what a sight to see! And the Food! The food was so hot and fresh. It was truly amazing to see how the prepare it over open fire! 10 out of 10 Highly Recommend!
