Sloth Sanctuary and Gamboa Rainforest Reserve from Colon

Prepare for an unforgettable adventure of a lifetime on an air-conditioned luxury motorbus along routes once traversed by Spanish Conquistadors and 49er gold-seekers. This journey through Colon, Panama, takes you along the Panama Canal, a linking lifeline for North and South America with the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, slicing through the narrowest part of the Isthmus of Panama.

Immerse yourself in the realms of Panama's endearing wildlife at the Sloth Sanctuary at Gamboa Rainforest Reserve. Dedicated to conservation, this sanctuary offers a unique opportunity to observe these iconic creatures up close, learn about their slow-paced lifestyle, and understand their vital role in the rainforest ecosystem. Here, you'll learn about these fascinating creatures in their natural habitat and even participate in feeding sessions. Observe their slow-paced, ebullient personalities that contribute significantly to the rainforest ecosystem, while capturing memorable photos.

Next, journey through a lush tropical forest that unfolds into Pedro Miguel's Locks' serene landscapes, a monumental construction of the canal. A detour to the Balboa townsite reveals a snapshot of the former Canal Zone, littered with American military installations, offering a stark reminder of the area's strategic importance.

Next, experience Panama's rich cultural heritage at the vibrant Corozal Arts and Crafts Center. Local artisans display an array of traditional crafts, artwork, and souvenirs. Revel in the exquisite craftsmanship of handcrafted jewelry, pottery, textiles, woodworks, paintings, and other unique Panamanian creations.

The culminating point of this excursion is the panoramic views from Fort Amador on the Causeway. Here, soak in the mesmerizing city skyline and the entrance to the Panama Canal before heading back to the pier. Relish an in-depth overview of the stunning Panama Canal and its surrounding areas on your unforgettable visit to Panama.
