the canal from your guide. Native trees, plants and birds species are the immediate highlights as you can get close to them from your kayak. Learn about the area's rich flora and fauna from your knowledgeable private guide.

The walking trails of the Metropolitan Park invite you to observe countless bird species and numerous mammals inhabiting the jungle
canopy. With a little bit of luck, you may even be able to spot the elusive sloth. Your next stop is the city's famous Biodiversity Museum, designed by the world-renowned architect Frank Gehry. The design of this colorful building tells the story of how the Isthmus of Panama rose from the sea, uniting two continents, separating vast ocean, and changing the planet’s biodiversity forever. The museum’s impressive 43,055 sq. ft. of space boasts eight permanent exhibits, each highlighting Panama’s spellbinding natural and ethnic heritage. Your visit concludes with a private transfer back to your hotel.
