San Blas Islands
Did you think it was impossible to go to the San Blas Islands for the weekend or by land?
Now its possible is possible with http://www.PanamaPrivateTours.com!
If you still think that the only way is by plane. We are confident to offer a trip to San Blas in the most convenient way for a weekend or simply San Blas by land.
San Blas always calls the attention of many people for many reasons;
- The panama san blass indians; one of the oldest millennial Indian Tribes of the Americas
- Woman rules in the region and society
- The region rules are not linked to the Panamanian Goverment, its like another country!
- The customs, traditions and art (molas) in the Kuna Yala are impressive!
- 365 Islands surrounded by palm trees, white sand and crystal clear water!
- Snorkeling and Ecology
2 DAY 1 NIGHT - tour to san blas islands
Panama Central America tours eco and san blas islands can be reached at 4.5 hours from Panama City by using a hard core 4x4.
The street is challenging and the basic accommodations are not 5 star. However, its worth to go and see the surroundings so in this case we can say that the wrap is better than what is inside the box!
Depending on which Island we pick, food is mostly fish, plantain and rice. For breakfast, eggs, bread and coffee. Meals are served in small portions and the accommodations are a simple bed or hammock with sheets and pillow. Note: Other Islands offer all sort of foods but it can cost in between $120 - $190 per night for accommodations only.
We are flexible and can take care of the rest such as guidance, transportation, cooler, drinks, extra food, logistics, etc.
