Overview of your Colon tour:

The Río Chagres, wich flows through the park and supplies most of the water for the Panama Canal his home to several Emberá communities. The enchanting journey takes us deep into the dense jungles of Chagres where the Embera Indians have lived for many years. Our adventure begin with a ride up the river in canoes, the Embera's traditional hand carved boats. On arrival to the village, you will be taken back in time as you observe the ancient Embera's dances and music that have hardly changed since Christopher Columbus arrived in the 1500's. The natives will invite you to explore the surrounding areas which are teaming birds and wildlife. The trek will take you through virgin jungle and sparkling waterfalls. During our visit, the Emberas will give you a glimpse into their mystical rituals and their amazing knowledge of medicinal plants and natural pigments. The Emberá women produce some of the finest baskets in the world, which are woven from palm fibers, and require several months of intensive labor.
