This tour is rated as a moderate sea kayaking tour which also includes rafting and camping.
The San Blas archipelago is home to the most fiercely independent indigenous peoples of the Americas: the Kuna. The Kuna know their islands as Kuna Yala (land of the Kuna) and maintain their own self government. We have been granted special permission from the council of chiefs to enter and explore this unspoiled archipelago.
On the Chagres River we float down virgin Jungles and meet amazing living indigenous cultures. We are taken to a traditional native village; it is like stepping back in time. Our indigenous friends will take us up river in their traditional wooden canoes.
Day 1
Day 1
Arrival, make your own way to the Hotel. The rest of the day is yours to explore this diverse city which combines old and new worlds. The towering financial sectors blend into old forts and Clonial houses left from the Spanish area.
Day 2 and 3
The Chagres River
An early start at 5 am when you will be picked up and taken in an all-terrain vehicle to the remote village of San Cristobal, which is past the mountains of Cerro Azul, northeast of Panama City.
After enjoying a typical Panamanian breakfast, you will hike for about 2 hours on a trail within Chagres National Park up to Rio Piedras, a Chagres River tributary, where you will get into rafts to float downstream (Class II-III rapids) into the untouched jungles of the Chagres River.
Then, you will continue rafting further downstream passing an impressive granite canyon with some white water rapid action, and ending just before encountering Madden Lake.
There you are expected by a “piragua” (native wooden canoe equipped with outboard motor) that will take you downstream along their Embera Indian Village at the riverbanks. If time allows it we will stop shortly in their village.
These natives migrated to Chagres River banks more than 20 years ago, where they found the same habitat they were so familiar with in the Darien Jungles.
Our “piragua” will take us to the nearest road where a river will be expecting to bring you back to civilization, and to your hotel in Panama City
Camping on River/Lodging Hotel Las Vegas. ***
Day 4
An early morning flight from Panama City to El Povenier in the San Blas Islands or Kuna Yala. After breakfast, we will take our support boat out to our fist campsite. The afternoon will provide us an opportunity to get some of our paddling skills honed and set out for a small paddle to a neighboring Island. (BLD)
Day 5 - 7
The San Blas archipelago is home to the most fiercely independent indigenous peoples of the Americas: the Kuna. The Kuna know their islands as Kuna Yala (land of the Kuna) and maintain their own self-government. A kayaking trip in these islands combines beautiful island scenery and the opportunity to observe a living Indian culture. The coral here is stunning and the beaches are pure white dotted with palm trees and thatch roofs of the Kuna villages. (BLD)
Day 8
Early morning flight back to Panama City in time to connect with International flights or stay on and explore other regions of this amazing and diverse country.
