How to Experience Panama on a Budget

(EMAILWIRE.COM, February 27, 2009 ) Aventouras, an award-winning company that specializes in immersive journeys to Latin American destinations, is offering a journey to Panama that includes hiking, snorkeling, rafting, and ziplining your way through the country. Hike through the jungle to a refreshing swim at a waterfall, take a morning birding walk with your naturalist guide, boat out to the San Blas archipelago and explore the fascinating indigenous Kuna community, Hike the Sendero Los Quetzales, looking for the elusive, resplendent quetzal, raft the Rio Chiriqui, explore the canopy on zip lines, or tour local coffee farms. At an all-inclusive cost of under $2000 for a week of adventure, this trip offers travelers a great value.

A country that is relatively unknown as a nature lovers and adventure travelerÂ’s destination despite its incredible opportunity, Panama is similar to better-known Costa Rica with the stunning landscape of mountains, beaches, and jungles; trails to hike and rivers to raft. Panamanians like to say, however, Â“In Costa Rica ten tourists look for one elusive quetzal, in Panama one traveler can find ten quetzals.Â”

The Adventure Panama vacation offers a sampling of Panama's beaches, jungles, mountains, rivers Â— and of course the canal. The trip starts with two nights at the beautiful and tranquil Burbayar Lodge in the upland jungle. From there, visitors move on to the remote San Blas archipelago, a gem of paradise on the Caribbean, equally spectacular for its beaches and indigenous culture. Travelers will visit the famous Panama Canal on their way to the mountain town of Boquete, surrounded by national parks, hiking trails, hot springs, and white water. Boquete is the base for two nights as travelers experience adventure in a natural setting unsurpassed in Central America.

Departure Dates: April 18th, June 19th, and December 19th, 2009, 8 days/ 7 nights. Cost: All inclusive cost: $1998
