Board your air-conditioned transportation for the hour-long drive to the Gamboa Rainforest Resort. Located on the banks of the Chagres River in Soberania National Park, the Gamboa Rainforest Resort has 340 acres of luxurious pools, restaurants and gardens. Large tracts of lowland tropical rainforests that nourish thriving plants and harbor enchanting animal populations surround the resort. With over 50,000 acres of pristine rainforest, this natural gem hosts an incredible 105 species of mammals, 525 species of birds and 124 species of reptiles and amphibians. After exploring the rainforest from the ground, board your aerial tram for the approximately 20-minute ascent through the forest canopy as your guide provides a narrated tour. At the top of the summit, take an optional walk to the observation platform for views of the jungle and the canal. After your tram ride, return back to the ship in Colon.

Special Notes:

Wear loose, comfortable clothing and sturdy walking shoes. Bring a hat, rain gear, camera, and binoculars.

The Panama Canal Authority assigns specific time slots for the transit of a vessel through the locks. The ship will anchor in a designated area and will wait for instructions. Once clearance is transmitted to the ship, procedures begin to bring ship's tour passengers ashore. Therefore, tour departure times may vary and will be announced onboard. The return time of the ship to Colon or Cristobal may also be delayed due to transit through the locks. We recommend that you are prepared for any potential of delay in the ship's arrival to Colon or Cristobal and plan accordingly by bringing any needed medication or essential items on tour.

Depending on the voyage and itinerary guests will be dropped off in either Colon or Cristobal.
