Trip Highlights

Panama-Casco-Viejo-street-viewWhere history meets modern wonder

Panama City

Day 1: Arrival in Panama City
Touch down in Panama and settle into the heart of Casco Viejo. Your boutique hotel, housed in a restored colonial building, offers rooftop views and timeless charm. That evening, dine by candlelight in the courtyard, surrounded by quiet jazz and warm evening air.

Day 2: The Panama Canal & Casco Viejo
Stand above the Miraflores Locks and watch as ships rise and fall through one of the world’s great engineering feats. Later, lose yourself in Casco’s cobbled lanes, sipping coffee on a rooftop and browsing artisan boutiques.

Day 3: Into the Highlands of Boquete
Fly west to the misty mountains of Boquete. Finca Lerida welcomes you with fresh air and sweeping views. Walk the trails, breathe in the scent of pine, and let the stillness settle in.

Day 4: Cloud Forests & Coffee Trails
Begin the day with a guided hike to hidden waterfalls deep in the cloud forest. As dusk falls, tour a working coffee estate where the scent of roasted beans and panoramic views linger long after the sun sets.

Day 5: To the Caribbean Coast
Fly to the archipelago of Bocas del Toro and arrive at your island retreat. Spend the afternoon unwinding at Red Frog Beach, where rainforest meets white sand and time begins to stretch.

Day 6: Jungle Trails by ATV
Take to the jungle by ATV, riding past hidden beaches, muddy tracks, and lush terrain. That evening, dine under the stars at your hotel’s open-air terrace, the sea just beyond your table.

Day 7: Zapatilla Cays by Private Boat
Set sail on a private catamaran to the Zapatilla Cays. Swim in clear waters, snorkel with tropical fish, and stretch out on palm-fringed shores with no one else in sight.

Puerto Viejo

Day 8: Crossing to Costa Rica
Travel overland into Costa Rica and arrive at your beachfront hideaway in Puerto Viejo. Walk the shoreline or settle into a hammock and watch the surf roll in.

Day 9: Cahuita’s Wild Heart
Venture into Cahuita National Park on a guided wildlife walk. Watch for monkeys in the canopy, sloths in the trees, and flashes of color among the leaves. Return to the coast for a slow afternoon.

Day 10: A Day to Unwind
Start with a gentle yoga session on the sand. Then, follow your curiosity—rent a bike, visit a local chocolatier, or spend the day doing absolutely nothing at all.

Day 11: To Arenal’s Shadow
Leave the coast behind and head for the volcanic highlands. At Amor Arenal, jungle cabins with plunge pools offer privacy and peace. Soak in the view with a glass of wine and the sounds of the forest.

Day 12: Ziplining & Springs
Fly above the canopy on a zip-line tour with sweeping views of Arenal’s volcanic ridges. End the day with a private dinner by the hot springs, as the rainforest hums around you.

Day 13: One Last Soak
Linger over breakfast. Hike to a nearby waterfall or enjoy a final plunge in your private pool. This is your time to slow down and take it all in.

Day 14: Departure from San José
Transfer to the airport for your flight home, carrying with you the rhythm of the jungle, the warmth of the Caribbean, and the memories of a journey well lived.
