Itinerary
We will pick you up from your hotel and take you on a scenic journey through Gatun Lake and the Chagres River to visit the Embera village.
The tree-lined shores, tiny islets, and blue-green waters of Gatún Lake (Lago Gatún) now cover what was once the fertile Chagres River Valley. In 1913, Gatún Lake became the largest artificial lake, supported by the biggest dam in the world. Today, it remains an essential part of the renowned Panama Canal.
We are going on a boat trip across the lake to visit the Embera village, Embera drua is just one of the four indigenous communities that we can choose to visit on this trip . During our visit, we will learn about their traditions and how indigenous people live in the village. Additionally, we will enjoy a local lunch consisting of fried plantains with tilapia. We will take a guided tour through the village, visit their craft market, and watch a traditional dance show the indigenous people perform.

About Panama City
Panama City is the capital at the Pacific entrance of the Panama Canal, with a colonial old quarter, a glittering skyline and rainforest at its edge.
Panama City sits on the Pacific coast beside the entrance to the Panama Canal, and ships queue in the bay for the passage. The Miraflores Locks, a short drive from the centre, let visitors watch vessels being raised and lowered. Casco Viejo, the old quarter founded in 1673, has restored colonial plazas, churches and balconied houses, and the Amador Causeway runs out into the bay with views back to the skyline.
Top-ranked sights in Panama City: Casco Viejo, Panama Canal, Amador Causeway (Calzada de Amador).
