The Embera people have my heart - We had an amazing time today. We were picked up punctually in very comfortable transportation for a fun filled day of swimming in the most beautiful waterfall and learning about and engaging with the Embera people. From beginning to end Omer is a top notch tour guide ( our kids are 14 and 17) and enjoyed every minute.

Incredible tour and wonderful guide! - This tour was just amazing! This was our first visit to Panama and only our second day of the trip, and it was enchanting. Omer was a wonderful guide who went the extra mile to make sure our experience was special. He was in contact with me before the trip to make sure we had everything we needed (like water shoes!!) and knew what to expect, and he gave us lots of helpful advice on where to go and what to see in the city. The hike to the waterfall was gorgeous, and the experience meeting the Embera was unforgettable. Omer took spectacular pictures of us swimming at the waterfall, even taking video for us--it was the kind of attention you'd expect from a family member. Even though a thunderstorm broke out in the middle of the tour (thankfully while we were under shelter in the village!) my whole family absolutely loved this experience (Father-in-law, my husband and I, and kids age 13, 11, and 9). Thanks, Omer!! We will book with you again next time we come to Panama!

Highly Recommend - Omer picked us up, each one from their own place, and drove us to the tour of the Embera tribe. He explained everything thoroughly and was very knowledgeable, he knew all the answers to the questions we asked. He was friendly and fun and the tribe itself is an amazing experience. Highly recommend to book with Omer!
