Private Tour to Embera Indigenous Community

Private Day Tour to Embera Indigenous Community

Join us as we will be visiting a natural reserve which is highly important to our country, not only does it provide us with potable water supply for Panama City and Colon, but it guarantees the everyday normal function of the Panama Canal.

The Embera Parara Puru is one of the indigenous communities that lives on the banks of the Chagres River and Lake Alajuela. It is self-governed and has its own laws as well as a supreme chief, who enforces the rules within his own territory. Join us and learn more about the customs and traditions and take this opportunity to purchase beautiful handmade crafts.

Upon arrival we will take an artisanal canoe on a short ride around Lake Alajuela where you will be able to appreciate its exuberant vegetation. This will be our first stop for those of you who would like to enjoy a refreshing swim, you may do so.nThis part of the tour is about 20 -30 minutes. We suggest you bring closed water shoes, highly recommended especially if you have any knee problems or poor stability. If you choose not to do this part of the tour, you can stay in the canoe or you can only take pictures for the area in this time.

Next stop will be the community, here you can learn more about their way of life, we will visit their village where you can see how they have adapted to changes of the modern world without losing their essence, a true experience that never disappoints!
