Ultimate Embera Tour
Days: 3 From: $249
Tour Overview
We have started a new tour with an English/Spanish speaking guide. This tour will be 2 nights and 3 days. It will include all transport to and from Panama city. You can take a tent hammock or if preferred camp in our tents with mattresses, sheets, pillows, and lamp. We have fishing equipment, football, volleyball,a kayaks and other games available. You will get daily tours as well as the Embera ceremonial dance and music presentation. Visit the bat caves and canyon on Lago Bayano, swim with the children in the river, visit the school and so much more. There is no other tour like it in Panama
The Ultimate Embera Tour is based in Ipeti which is just off the Pan American highway on the way to the Darien. It is a great example of old meets new and an insight into how the Embera embrace change within their community but hold onto their cultural roots. This is not a touristy Embera village. We are working with them to improve sanitation, rubbish removal and recycling practices, a sustainable organic garden for food production and education for the children.
