Great experience, keep... - Great experience, keep expectations realistic. The monkeys and other animals are in the wild and they come out on their own terms. We did get to see some of the monkeys and was a wonderful experience.

Fantastic experience - Great experience with a knowledgeable guide who went above and beyond to make this a memorable experience. Riding alongside ships on the lake and seeing wild monkeys is a real highlight.

Jungle adventure. - This was a great experience! Our guide Richard was extremely knowledgeable- he gave us information about Panama’s history, geography, culture and wildlife. We had a wonderful time boating on the Panama Canal and Lake Gatun. We saw two different kinds of monkeys on the islands. We took a hike on the pipeline road, and learned a lot about the ecology, and were fortunate to see a sloth. This trip exceeded our expectations, we highly recommend this.

Highly recommended Individual Tour for 2 - Pick up with comfortable SUV at the hotel in Panama City at 7am. From there drive to Lake Gatun with our English speaking guide. Change to one of the boats together with our guide and the boat completely for us. All other boats with about ~15 people fully manned. On the lake itself many howler monkeys, jumping monkeys, cappuccino monkeys, iguanas, field mice and eagles on the shore of the beautiful rainforest. Continue to the nearby lodge where you have a great view over the River & Lake at the bar. Not far from there the hike starts on a paved path / road through the rainforest for 2km. Total tour +5 hours. Guide from Panama with lots of information about nature, animals and life.
