Full description: Travel to the heart of Panama to the Gamboa area, right in the middle of the Panama Canal, in an air-conditioned tour vehicle with our guide. After arriving at the Gamboa public dock, we will begin our tour by departing the Chagres River on a riverboat to Monkey Island. Capture stunning close-up videos of the massive container ships navigating the Panama Canal. As we approach the different islands where the monkeys lived, you’ll try to spot the different species of monkeys—from white-faced monkeys, howler monkeys, and Geoffrey’s monkeys—to bats, birds, and all kinds of wildlife in the surrounding areas. Meanwhile, you’ll learn interesting facts and information about the different species from our guide. Afterward, we’ll return to the pier and then to Panama City, where the tour ends with drop-off at your hotel.

What our satisfied customers say about our experiences:
“Our trip was absolutely fantastic. We saw so many beautiful places, swam in a clear water, had personalized meals, had fun on the boat and all that with relaxed schedule that I highly recommend. We were lucky and also got to see a monkey in a natural habitat. I can’t talk about this tour enough; I highly recommend it.”
Katerina Sevilla – USA
“we had a wonderful time with everyone on the UTV tour. The jungle scenery was awesome, the trails challenging, and the entire crew very attentive. Can’t wait to book again with PanamaAllAbout. Stream crossings, hill climbing and beaches are all right there! Diener & Rene…you’re the best.“
William Rupert – United Kingdom
“Diener was an amazing guide to the Embera Village. He was very knowledgeable and fun. We had four people in our group and we each enjoyed the experience immensely.The lunch at the Embera Village was some of the best food we had—fresh fish and fruit after a trip to the waterfall. I highly recommend a tour with Diener.“
Kelly Godbey – USA
“I went on the Embera tour with Dienir and he was absolutely amazing. He is quite knowledgeable of the Panamanian culture and his English was great. He took many pictures for my friends and I and also ensured all of our needs were met. I’d definitely use him again!“
