Thanks to Francesco we got to see so many things of Panama and got to know a lot of the nature, the history, the society and more. We were in... read more the jungle on horses with Francesco and he showed us a lot. He is an experienced guide and lives there for now 10 years. He speaks good english and is really funny. He gave us everyday another nice activity to do. So we went on the ocean with his kayak one day, which was a real fun ride. The next day we went amphibia board riding, which is board pulled under water by a boat. He also showed us some secret beaches where we camped and stayed the night.

  Francesco was awesome! Extremely knowledgeable on all of the culture, biology and history of this area. We kayaked and hiked through the rainforest to a secluded beach. ... read more We learned so much along the way. Thank you Francesco!!

  Beautiful place to take some awesome pictures. Get your land legs and just take in the views. Just off the main road.

  My husband and I decided to take a kayaking trip in Portobelo bay in Panama. We searched online and came across Panamore which said they provided private tours which included... read more kayaking, hiking through a swamp forest and rain forest and then a private beach. It had only a couple of reviews but was so cheap (only about $45 per person). On the day of the tour, we were picked up by a taxi, arranged by Panamore (paid $150) that drove us from Panama city to Portobelo bay. There, at a local restaurant, we met Francesco, the tour guide (I think he owns the restaurant too). We had never been kayaking before, but had the most amazing experience that we're looking forward to doing it again. We kayaked for about and hour through the bay and then through a swamp forest. We left the kayak and went hiking with rubber boots provided by Francesco. After about an hour of hiking we arrived at a beautiful private beach where we were even provided with snorkeling gear. We spent about two hours there and were taken back to where we had started with a beautiful speedboat ride.The entire trip Francesco told us about history and culture, showed us things and kept us company. After getting back, we cleaned up in the bathroom there which wasn't the best bathroom but was okay I guess . We then had lunch at the restaurant (it was so good! Cost about $20 each) and were taken back to our hotel with the same taxi driven by Luis. Overall, it was an incredible trip and Francesco is an amazing tour guide. We highly recommend it to anyone travelling to Panama. This is one activity you have to do!

  Amazing adventure trip in the tropical rainforest - We went hiking in the vast jungle behind Portobelo. Really Nice experience as we found many animals such as monkeys, spiders, frogs and colorful butterflies. We also had a very... read more experienced local guide that showed us many plants and told us how they could be used in many ways. Plus we had a lot of water and fruit included during this incredible walking trip.

  Had a wonderful kayaking experience with Francesco, Dario, an their adorable furry companion in Portobelo. We kayaked around the beautiful bay learning about its great history while Francesco regaled us... read more with tales of pirates and gold. From there we kayaked through the beautiful mangroves learning about their importance and biodiversity. After bidding farewell to kayaks, we hiked along a path through forest searching for howler monkeys before arrive at a secluded beach. It was wonderful.
