Rainforest Discovery

Rainforest Discovery for Conservation is a joint business venture between Advantage Panama Tours and ADOPTA. Reservations for any of these tours directly support ADOPTA's conservation, research, environmental education, and community development programs.

These tours occur within and around Soberanía national park, near the Panama canal. This 19,541-hectare area contains a spectacular biodiversity and is a great place to observe a wide range of animals and tropical plants. It's also one of the most prolific birdwatching sites in the country, with more than 500 species of birds recorded from the canal area!

Forest Expedition by Land and Water

Today we will take an early morning walk through the rainforest, where we will learn about insects and medicinal plants while looking for sloths, monkeys, and colorful birds such as toucans, parrots, motmots, and trogons.

Next, we will get on a boat for a sightseeing tour of Gatun Lake on the Panama Canal. Along the way, we will see many other vessels traveling through the canal and a variety of tropical wildlife, including monkeys, crocodiles, and turtles.

People of the Jungle: The Emberá

This afternoon, prepare to travel back in time as we visit the indigenous Emberá people. On our way down the Chagres River to the community, we will look for birds, turtles, and alligators. Despite being close to Panama City, the Emberá maintain most of their ancestral traditions. The cultural exchange will be extraordinary! You will also have the opportunity to purchase some local crafts, including wood and nut carvings and brightly colored baskets.

A new world is revealed in the rainforest after the sun sets, with a whole new cast of characters. Many insects, frogs, owls, amphibians and mammals are active only at night! Join us on this walk for a chance to see capybara, armadillo, kinkajou, olingo, two-toed sloth, and maybe even a night monkey.
