The Gamboa Rainforest Resort is located in the vicinity of the historic Chagres River, alongside the Panamá Canal, in
the midst of the fifty-five thousand-acre Soberanía National Park.
Enjoy a day with nature experiencing two of the most popular attractions in Panama: boat trip on Gatun Lake and The
Aerial Tram and its exhibits.
The Aerial Tram allows you to discover the secrets of the upper forest canopy. Each gondola takes you from the
shadowy forest floor through the under story and into the sun-drenched canopy.
The boat trip on Gatun Lake slowly cruises the back channels, island and bays that make up this unique ecosystem all
the way to the Monkey Island, get your camera ready for a close up!
To complete your day, at the Sloth rescue center, you can learn how these adorable creatures which are usually sick, injured or orphaned, are rehabilitated and prepared to get back to their natural habitat.

The aerial tram was beautiful. We saw a Toucan up close in a tree top with its gigantic yellow beak. The sounds of the monkeys and birds as we rode over the canopy of the rainforest was amazing.
At the Sloth sanctuary we saw 4 sloths and a huge ant eater.
Monkey Island and the 2 islands next to it were so cool. Our guide knew how to call the monkeys out of the trees. He got them on the front of the boat eating fruit, and catching fruit he threw to them as they sat close up in the trees. He spotted a sloth in a tree, a line of tiny bats on a tree, and a baby iguana swimming that he scooped up for everyone to see before he released it.
Our driver Michael was over the top amazing. He continuously shared his vast knowledge of the areas we were visiting. He was beyond what could possibly be expected of a driver. He went out of his way to point out things as we were driving, even taking a side turn now and then to show us something. He was truly exceptional.

What an excellent day! Our guide picked us up, right outside the port. We were then dropped off at tour stop. Our tour included: boat ride/tour of Gatum Lake, filled with monkeys, crocodiles, etc. Then, off to the tram ride, which takes you to the top for some spectacular views. And, lastly, the sloth sanctuary.

This trip was part of our Marells Discovery 2 cruise. We visited the new locks visitor centre, what a lovely place and the views of the canal are fantastic. Also a short film about the building of the canal which was very informative. After that a cruise on the Gatun Lake, we had a great guide and seen lots of wild life, well worth the money for the trip.
