Day 1:
We will pick you up at your city Hotel. At arrival after you check in we will start our aerial tram raid. The tram ascends 280 feet over half a mile and ends atop a hill. From here we walk two minutes to the observation tower (which is optional) and for those with some stamina involve a climb of a 100 feet up a mildly inclined ramp which is also wheelchair accessible. From the observation tower you will get great views of the canal, the Chagres River as well as the surrounding forested areas of Soberania National Park. Returning you will visit the exhibits area where reptiles, snakes, fish, butterflies and orchids are shown for your observation. Also a Chocoe Indian village replica will be visited and you will be able to see how they live. Overnight at the Hotel Gamboa Rainforest Resort.

Day 2:
First, we travel at high speed on small boats northbound (Atlantic) on the canal for 25 minutes where we might come close to some of the big ships that transit the canal daily and then we slow to a cruising speed. Slowly, we motor along the forested banks of Gatun Lake, also a protected area, and we look for wildlife such as Capuchin Monkeys, 3 toed sloths, Howler Monkeys, various kinds of Toucans and other bird life. Then we dock along an old rehabilitated pier that served a top-secret US Naval radio communications center until the end of World War II. Here we walk up a series of steps and along a 300-yard trail that leads to the ruins of this hidden military installation. We then will return to the hotel.

Day 3:
After lunch we will transfer you back to your city hotel
