This tour covers some of the most interesting parts of the Panama Canal. Lake Gatún makes up a 21-mile (33-m) section of the canal. This area used to be a lush valley – it was flooded to make a manmade lake between 1906 and 1914.

Discover the most complete and immersive day tour on Lake Gatun, right in the heart of the Panama Canal. This eco-adventure offers a fun, unforgettable way to explore Panama’s incredible natural beauty and engineering marvels.

Cruise alongside massive ships as they navigate the Canal, and marvel at the diverse flora and fauna that thrive in this unique ecosystem.
