San Blas Islands Sailboat - The San Blas Islands are something you should see! The area is spectacular. It is a long bumpy ride to get there. Most of us felt car sick. It was worth it! it was a once in a lifetime experience. The way back is not as bad. Diego was great on the sailboat and a joy to be around. I would book this trip again

Wonderful experience - We spend a beautiful day in San Blas. On the islands we met some Kunas, local people, selling some handcrafts and molas. Lunch was freshly made with local ingredients. Although a long day, but very happy we took the tour.

Fun sailing experience - It was a relaxing trip and the captain Diego was super cool with a ton of sailing experience. The only thing is that I wish I had stayed longer and done the multi-night trip instead of the day trip, since the drive there and back takes a long time.

Magnificent day - Wonderful experience, a friendly and welcoming host. The snorkeling was fantastic, a beautiful coral reef with an array of fish. A delicious Italian pasta dinner. Magnificent beaches and what can we say about the color of the sea! 5 hours is too short, we wanted even more! A repeat without hesitation!

Day in San Blas - This trip was long but great and worth it! We got picked up from our hotel at 5.30. Had about 2.5 hour drive to Caribbean Coast, which was windy and hilly, but not too bad. We hopped in a Panga speed boat and took that down a river and out into the ocean. There are numerous small islands scattered around and we made a stop and dropped off some boat-mates. Then we got taken to a sail boat that our guide had arranged for us. We had lovely breakfast, took a small boat to tiny island, swam, relaxed, enjoyed the scenery, which was pristine. A true natural paradise kept up by the Indians that preserve the land. It was relaxed. We came back to the sail boat, had a phenomenal lunch. And then went sailing for a few hours. Super fun. Wish we had more time. Panga picked us up at 3 and we were back In Panama City by 6. Everyone was wonderful and helpful in coordinating a great time. hats off to Jenny who organized and Diego the captain. They took care of us and made sure it was an amazing day for us. The day was catered for our perfect experience. Note. Bring cash. No ATM. No credit cards. Everything is great value tho!

Slice of paradise at the end of a long bumpy road - The reviews about the harrowing car ride from Panama City to catch the boat are not an exaggeration. It wasn’t clear that the sailboat wouldn’t be waiting for me when I arrived. I had to take the speed boat to the sailboat. It was all worth it. Nico was a lovely host. He greeted me with a yummy breakfast spread. I hopped into the water for a bit, and then he took me to one island to buy gifts and to another island for lobster lunch. It was a cloudy day in San Blas, but it was still gorgeous.

FUN DAY ! - The driver picked us up at 5 am to get to San Blas. It was a long drive, but I must admit it was definitely worth it. I really loved the snorkeling: a lot of fish and corals. Lunch was fresh and delicious. Thank you guys.

This experience was... - This experience was certainly an adventure! Our experience getting to the coast was eventful and full of windy roads. If you don’t have a strong stomach or struggle with sudden movements, prepare yourself! Once we got to the water we took a speedboat in which they dropped us off to the sailboat in the ocean. From there we kayaked to the islands of our choice. It was a great experience and the water was beautiful!

Worst experience! - It was a horrible experience and none of the tour description was offered. First, the canoe had motor problems and stopped in the middle of the ocean three times arriving at the sailboat one hour later, 10:00 AM. Second the sailboat/catamaran was not the one in the picture. It was an old and dirty sailboat for a maximum of four people. The captain told us that he was not going to move the sailboat, and we just seat on a very small area for two hours. I contacted the travel agency agent, Jeny, and told her the problems encountered and she did not do anything. We were taken via a very old and small dingy boat to Isla Grande to swim in the beach for 10 minutes and then to have lunch. Back to the sailboat in the dingy. Finaly, the captain moved the sailboat for 15 minutes to Isla Perro Chico and we were taken to the beach in the dingy. Less than 10 minutes later, the canoe came to pick up us to take us to the mainland. We were not able to do any snorkeling, swim at the beach or island hoping. We expend the majority of the time traveling in the canoe. Everything was a big lie. And for a price of $730 for two people!!!
