Our Excellent Journey
One reason I booked this trip was to see if it would be a good place for an American to retire. Turns out, it was a good experience and even better than I had imagined.
I’m surprised and delighted by Panama…
One reason I booked this trip was to see if it would be a good place for an American to retire. Turns out, it was a good experience and even better than I had imagined. We started at Panama City, made our way to Boquete and finally to Boca Chica.
Memorable tours and excursions…
Our first tour was visiting Casco Antiguo in Panama City, the more historical and charming part of the city. Our guide spoke very good English and provided us with a great context and introduction to Panama.
My favorite thing about this trip…
Boquete was the highlight and where I wanted to visit the most. We had a very pleasant stay at Cabanas Isla Verde during our time there. The staff went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. We mostly explored the area on our own, but thanks to Anywhere, the logistics were all taken care of when we needed to move from one city to another!
Places you'll stay
Boquete
The small town of Boquete sits in the highlands of Panama’s Chiriquí province, snugly fitted into a lush valley and surrounded by towering mountains, gushing streams, and abundant coffee farms. Though once a sleepy mountain town forgotten by time, Boquete is beginning to see more and more tourists these days, and for good reason – its natural beauty is astounding and its range of activities spectacular. Panama’s only volcano, Volcán Barú, lies only 9 km away, providing visitors with excellent hiking, nature viewing, and camping. Boquete’s other attractions include white-water rafting, canopy tours, hot springs, botanical gardens, and more.
Boca Chica
Boca Chica is a small fishing village along Panama’s central Pacific coast that acts primarily as the gateway to both the Gulf of Chiriquí National Park (Parque Nacional Marino Golfo de Chiriquí) and the neighboring island of Boca Brava. The natural beauty of this place is impressive, but it’s still off-the-radar for most tourists. The town itself is modest and mainly local; however, there are a scattering of nice accommodations and restaurants within the immediate vicinity.
Panama City
Panama City is a hub in every sense of the word. Located in the Gulf of Panama along the Pacific Coast, Panama City sits in the heart of the country and serves as the main artery through which the rest of Panama receives its visitors, commerce, and culture.
