What our clients say

My hotel's concierge introduced me to Juan, and he took us on a perfect half day tour of the Miraflores Locks and Canal Zone. Juan was incredibly knowledgeable and flexible with the itinerary so we could see several things that piqued our interest along the way. I highly recommend booking a tour with Manakin Adventures. Jose is a wonderful guide!

Juan had looked for sites around Panama City and El Valle before we arrived. He was an excellent guide throughout and we managed to photograph a lot of butterflies.

We started out our vacation in Panama City and Juan was our tour guide. He took us on a driving tour of the city to the canal, the bio museum and to an authentic Panamanian restaurant. Juan was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. We enjoyed our tour with Juan so much we asked if he was available for additional tours at our next location- Buenaventura.
