Aerial Tram and Gamboa Rainforest Reserve

Embark on a truly unique and unforgettable journey through Panama, where the iconic Panama Canal meets the enchanting Gamboa Rainforest Reserve. Travel in style aboard a luxurious, air-conditioned vehicle and explore the multifaceted wonders of this Central American gem.

Begin your adventure at the Gamboa Rainforest Reserve. Take a ride in an open-air gondola from the shadowy forest floor through the understory and into the sun-drenched canopy. Marvel at a rainbow of greens, accented by brilliant blooms. Ascend to a 30-meter observation tower, offering panoramic views of Soberania National Park and the Chargres River, which feeds the Panama Canal and Gatun Lake. Your guide will provide insights into the ecosystem, highlighting interesting plants, animals, and ecological interactions.

Continue your journey through the verdant landscape as the forest gradually clears to reveal key landmarks along the Panama Canal route. Witness the engineering marvels of the Pedro Miguel and Miraflores Locks and explore the historic townsite of Balboa. These strategic points highlight the complex operations of this vital waterway and its significance in global trade and geopolitics.

Next, visit the vibrant Corozal Arts and Crafts Center. Discover traditional Panamanian crafts, including handmade jewelry, pottery, textiles, woodwork, and paintings. Interact with local artisans to learn about the craftsmanship behind each piece and support the local artistic community.

Pause to explore the intriguing Former Canal Zone, characterized by remnants of American military installations. These historical artifacts serve as subtle reminders of the region's strategic importance and add depth to your immersive journey through Panama's storied landscapes.

Finally, explore Casco Antiguo, the historic district of Panama City dating back to the late 17th century. Built after the original city was destroyed by pirate Henry Morgan, Casco Antiguo features a mix of Spanish, French, and American architectural styles. Stroll through cobblestone streets, visit colonial-era churches and plazas, and enjoy the charming ambiance of boutique hotels, art galleries, cafes, and restaurants. Designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997, Casco Antiguo showcases Panama's rich history and culture.
