Il programma nel dettaglio

Let’s know Kuna Yala, San Blas in our language, one of the most beautiful and inaccessible areas of Panama. It is an indigenous area of 378 Caribbean-postcard scenery islands. It is an area which is not permitted foreign investment in tourism and that means anyone other than Kuna. This is a full day tour, departing around 5am and returning to the hotel after 6pm. You will travel around 3 hours each way to reach the continental Kuna Yala, indigenous autonomous region. From this point, the journeys are made by boat operators San Blas.


You will have the opportunity to visit several islands, between 2 and 4 and this depends on several factors. We always try to visit Isla Perro, Isla Aguja and Island Piscina and if the opportunity arises another. Trips on these islands are included in the price. Lunch, fish normally without drink is also included. The availability of one type of fish or other may vary by day, but responds to the traditional food Kuna. If you want to dive, snorkel or visit some reefs may recruit locally to local operators. These activities are not included in our price and shall be subject to our schedules.


Not all the Kuna communities are accessible. Hiring the sightseeing other communities also must be handled locally. Lunch is usually taken in Isla Aguja, where you can have an understanding of how they are indigenous communities of San Blas. Kuna Yala is a paradise of Caribbean islands inaccessible, so always ask to our local guides what you can do or what you cannot do. The Kuna culture is very opposite to the mentality of modern man about town. Please note that you may notice this clash. The service in everything related to guides and local services is provided with courtesy and kindness, but it is possible that the interaction between cultures you do get a glimpse of gated community. It's easy to enjoy a unique experience, very special and can be varied.
