Stop At: Emberá-Wounaan Comarca, Panama

This is a perfect opportunity to visit an indigenous village in the midst of a wonderful natural setting that supports the harmony of their lifestyle and traditions.
Early in the morning guests are picked up at their hotel and transferred to a port, were we board a motorised piragua (dugout canoe) and travel up a river to a Emberá indigenous village.
At the Emberá village we will be greeted with dancing and music. We will learn about Emberá customs and their relationship with nature. There will be handcrafts available for sale and we will have a chance to be painted with the traditional jagua, a natural dye the Emberá use to adorn their bodies. After a lunch of fish, plantain, and fresh fruit served in traditional style by the Emberá, we will be heading back to Panama City.
