Jungle Land Adventures - you may choose to kayak, swim or go fishing after you spend some time exploring the rain forest for wild life!   www.panamaroadrunner.com
Much of the beauty of Panama comes from the lush green areas in the mountains and the rain forests.  Campana National Park has fantastic views and our guests always enjoy being at the top of the mountain and being able to see the ocean, the rivers, and valleys on both sides of the mountains.  www.panamaroadrunner.com for all your transport needs
