San Blas islands are really amazing. Chichime has few tourists compared to some of the other islands. The first night I was the only tourist on the island. The hosts are preparing fresh seafood for lunch and dinner and one boat trip for visiting other islands and to go snorkelling was included. Accomodation is simple, but beautiful with electricity only a few hours in the evening. The drive from Panama City to the jetty is very scenic and during the boat trip you pass some very beautiful islands.
Overall an amazing trip.Show more

Apart from the clerical error made while booking Canopy Zip-Line and the weather affecting the Arenal Volcano viewing I quite enjoyed the Itinerary of Bamber Experience. Your staff are fantastic, helping and encouraging one when things go wrong. It's a shame about some of the staff on the ground and far away from the Office. I must say majority of the shuttle pick ups arrived promptly.
You have made me a more confident, and competent sole traveller. Thank you.Show more
