Armando "Mandy" was an excellent tour leader. He was extremely attentive and effective in dealing with a diverse set of demographics and interests. He was a very positive and kind spirited person with an infectious laugh. Also the local guide in Bocas, Alejandro, was awesome. Lots of choices for special interests. My only critical feedback would be for G Adventures to mandate the hotels to provide filtered water so guests could refill water bottles and not made to purchase bottled water. Also group size of 16 proves to be a bit challenging and I prefer a maximum of 12. Still, I rate the trip with 5 stars.Show more
