If you are looking for a special family friendly tour of Portobelo then you should contact Panamore. Francesco the delightful owner / operator of Panamore is a knowledgeable guide... read more and also runs a little Italian pizza/ pasta dockside cafe there . He took us kayaking around the bay and along a river telling us all about the local history -all while also keeping our 3 young children giggling and paddling ( quite a feat!) We then had a little walk through the mangrove forest ( boots provided) to a lovely secluded beach cove. Our very own little Panamanian paradise . Perfect for young children to swim and paddle and snorkeling also possible a short swim from the beach. Because we had little ones we had opted for a boat to pick us up rather than paddle back. The friendly boat driver was prompt and delivered us back to the cafe . There Francesco made us some really delicious Italian pizzas and the kids also enjoyed some desserts made by the lovely Gabriella. We left feeling like part of his family with happy memories and full bellies! Francesco offers other local tours too and I’m sure he will tailor make you an amazing experience. Just Do it!

My wife, 2 daughters and I went on the kayak, trek, snorkel tour with Francesco from Panamore. We had a really enjoyable time. We took a kayuk(traditional wooden kayak) and... read more a regular kayak and paddled across Portobelo bay and finished with a short paddle through the mangroves. We then put on rubber boots and hiked for about 30 minutes through the jungle until we reached a secluded beach. Unfortunately it was a very high tide and the beach was mostly underwater. There was also an unusually strong wind which made snorkeling impossible. We sat and had lunch and enjoyed the ocean. Francesco got us some coconuts from the local land owner. The milk inside was great! After about an hour, we reversed our route and returned to Portobelo. We really enjoyed the tour and felt it was priced fairly.

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.

We had a few days in the wonderful town of Portobelo and Francesco's tour company was fantastic! He offers a lot of different options and has a real enthusiasm... read more for both the nature and culture of Portobelo. We had a great day on the kayak - hike - beach tour. It is a fascinating kayak trip across Portobelo bay and then through some mangroves. This is followed by an easy hike through spectacular jungle - we saw two different types of monkeys, many birds etc. Then you arrive at a picture perfect beach for snorkelling. What a day!
Thank you Francesco - you made it a real fun day!
Call into Francesco's restaurant "Casa Vela" for great Italian food with a spectacular view of the bay.
