Panama 2017-Family tour

Panama
The tour was amazing. All the tours were handled really carefully well in advance- so nothing was a waste. The places we stayed in were more than excellent- each had its unique taste and experience. So many attractions and each was very special, the Rafting , the Zipline, the Jungle boat, the Canal the villages we visited had left a remarkable experience for the children- a must when visiting Panama. The travel guides we had were excellent and very pleasant. Our drivers who accompanied us were very nice, charming and polite.
The best parts:

Panama
Arrival on Sunday, hotel was good. Monday railroad trip to Colon, new locks on the Caribbean side, Fort San Lorenzo. Tuesday Panama City and locks on the Pacific side. Wednesday departure for San Blas Islands till Friday morning, Friday no program saw the new museum of biodiversity and a mall. Lots of impressions- We reached during rainy season but without rain no rainforest!
The best parts:
well organized trip and fantastic ponctuality of the agency's driver and guide who were very friendly and competent. The Panama Canal remains a marvel, the railroad trip is well worth it, Panama City is impressive and San Blas the absolute contrast- one dreams about white beaches and coconut trees . The Guna people are amazing and one can only hope that their journey between old traditions and modern technology will remain successful . Great trip and glad I found you and Ana's agency !!
The worst parts:
We had early starts but if you want to see a lot in a short time, this is to be expected. The sunflies attacked me on San Blas but that is the fault of nobody. I should have inquired if there is a local product that is efficient. My repellent did not work.

Hello Mrs. Kumst, Thank you very much for taking the time to share your impressions with us. I am very happy you liked it and enjoyed where able to see so much from Panama during your short trip. There are really no effective bug sprays for sand flies but some people have shared with us some nice ways to fight them so we will make sure to include these tips on the travel information for the future.

Epic Panama 2017

Panama
Panama is a beautiful varied country. We had a chance to get a sense of its history and also a look into its future. We learned about the colonial history, the biological variability, the indigenous people and managed to relax! The accommodations were perfect and the guides were friendly, knowledgable and able to be flexible with the schedule.
The best parts:
The itinerary was amazing.. we covered so much ground and got an authentic feel for the people, the land and the culture.
The worst parts:
Sometimes there was a need for a few more breaks in the schedule.
