About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- kentl3820 contributionsHave a spectacular tour with Boquete Outdoor Adventures. We did!Ed was our guide and provided us a thoroughly delightful day of whale watching, beach relaxing, snorkeling and tropical lunch. He is a true professional and always provided us details on what we were seeing and explained the whale activities and got us some awesome closeup photos! We highly recommend him and his company. The entire day was well organized, energetically presented and fun from start to finish.Written 18 August 2024
- rich_green0 contributionsBest day of our holidayThis was our favorite day of our whole holiday . Ed was a great guide and we were extremely lucky to see baby humpback whales jumping out of the water on our return as well as a pod of dolphins and other whales on the way there. The 4 hours on the isla bolanos was brilliant snorkelling and paddleboarding. Ed prepared a tasty lunch. We also had access to thebphtots and videos ed took on the day.Written 12 August 2024
- 620brendanf0 contributionsGreat experience for new and experienced white water raftersThis was a really great excursion. My mom and I went, and this was her first time white water rafting, but it was my third. The guides were very informative and helpful, and the rapids were exhilarating. The water was refreshing and the lunch picnic was great. I would highly recommend this to anyone interested in trying out white water rafting.Written 20 May 2024
- ChoHa130 contributionsfun family timeGreat fun for the kids. The guides were fun, and helpful, and very skilled. I saw one guy haul two big adults out of the water simultaneously. The rapids were really mild and not terribly exciting for adults. However it was the end of the dry season, and Panama was experiencing a drought. So perhaps your trip may be wilder. Lots of beautiful birds. Tips: it is over an hour bus ride from Boquete. So if you are in David, sign up and save some driving time. Our valuables were safe on the bus while we rafted. We were told to bring clothes to change into. There was nowhere private to change. No bathrooms before or at the end of the trip. However that did not stop any of us from having a fabulous time.Written 13 May 2024
- annikadietmayer0 contributionsOne of the best things in PanamaWe booked the Rafting-Tour and it was absolutely amazing. The atmosphere was brilliant, we felt super safe and Tini our guide was absolutely funny. He managed everything perfect and did many jokes. We laughed all the time and had an amazing day. Also he gave us all advices in spanisch and englisch. Everybody who wants to go rafting in Panama should go to Boquete Outdoor Adventures.Written 29 March 2024
- dumbows0 contributionsJump on this one!This tour was wonderful! We were the only two on our tour and the company did not cancel or try to reschedule. Then we ended up being the only two people at the canyon! Water was clean and warm. Jaimie our driver/guide was super friendly, knowledgeable and took great photos for us! He walked us through where to jump, water depth etc. Great experience!Written 26 March 2024

- bobm1890 contributions3 Excellent Guides and Tours - Recommend HighlyWe did 3 tours with Boquete Outdoor Adventures in one week and all 3 were great. Each guide was specific to their tour and extremely knowledgeable about their area of expertise. We would give 5s to each of our 3 adventures, and our guides, who all spoke excellent English. Our first tour was the Pipeline Cloud Forest Trail with Jamie. His grandfather owns agricultural land adjacent to the trail and it was evident he knew it well. The trail itself was mostly even but definitely a climb up into the cloud forest. The trail was well kept with several “bridges” over the steam as we crossed back and forth. Jamie pointed out all the significant flora and fauna and explained a lot of the local agriculture and history. He found and spotted 2 different Quetzales for us. He even took some pictures through the spotting scope using our camera. Best yet, all the pictures he took were available on-line the next day for free. The second tour we took was the Isle Bolanos Beach Day tour in Chiriqui National Park, a marine reserve. Eduardo, or Ed, was another excellent guide. He filled us in on the anything we wanted to know about Panama on the informative ride to the Boca Chica, and worked hard to make our all day experience fun and relaxing. Isle Bolanos has a pristine white sand beach with idyllic turquoise green water. Ed did all the work, setting up a wonderful picnic area in the shade with hammocks, and brought all the water toys you might want: Paddle boards, floats, snorkeling equipment, etc. He set up the area for us and delighted us with a delicious lunch he prepared while we enjoyed the beach and water. The best part was that we were the only ones on the beach for the entire afternoon – an unexpected bonus to enjoy the day! The tour also includes changing rooms, banos, and showers if desired before heading back to Boquete. Again, all the pictures that Ed took were available the next day on-line for free. Our third adventure was the 4 X 4 Tour for Sunrise at Volcan Baru. Our driver and guide was Felix. After a 3:45 am pickup, we rode for 2 hours up to the tower array at the top of Volcan Baru. The trip was exciting, to say the least. The 4X4 trail was extremely rugged, but Felix did an excellent job of navigating the steep and very rocky portions (we have done the white rim trail in Canyonlands National Park in a 4X4, and this was more rocky). We arrived at the top about 40 minutes prior to sunrise, and hiked up the trail to watch sunrise. Because one of us has knee problems, we skipped the final very steep and rocky part to the very top and cross in the dark. Felix put us on a mid-point outcrop with the same panoramic view. We were lucky in that there was no cloud cover on the Pacific side, and some limited cloud cover on the Atlantic/Caribbean side. The sunrise was beautiful and we were able to see both the Atlantic and Pacific – the only place in the Western hemisphere you can do that. Sunrise was followed up by another delicious meal - picnic breakfast on flat land on a rug, with chairs, and hot coffee! It was chili (but can be cold), but we were prepared. The guide had hats and gloves if needed but we did not need them. The 4X4 trip down was even more fun because we could now see where we were going! We would highly recommend using Boquete Outdoor Adventures for any tours you want to take in and around Boquete.Written 4 March 2024
- G5943ASjamesc0 contributionsGreat Value AdventuresWe spent five nights in Boquete and went on three trips with BOA. The tours were all really well managed and a lot of fun. Along with our two teenagers, my wife and I first went white water rafting up by the border with Costa Rica (about 1hour 20 from Boquete). The experienced guides were very friendly and ensured the time we were on the river was fun but safe. We started up in the rain forest and saw squirrel monkeys and a snake as we raced through the rapids ending up about two hours (and a delicious lunch) later soaking wet but very happy. We also took a trip to one of the islands near the little fishing village at Boca Chica on Chiriqui’s Pacific coast. Again very well run by our guide Ed. It was a great way to spend the day snorkelling with the fishes and relaxing on an unspoiled tropical beach. We even saw dolphins on the trip back. Our final trip was just outside Boquete to see spectacular waterfalls in the hills. Our local guide Jaime was very knowledgable and passionate about the wildlife and local area and we enjoyed the hardish trek up through the cloud forest and were rewarded with an amazing as well as chilly dip in the pool under the waterfall. Would highly recommend Outdoor Adventures - it was a lot of fun and we thought was good value. They even provide free photos of your day!Written 31 December 2023
- Florida_Grace0 contributionsNot honest about roadblocks ruined Family tripMe and my Family did a trip in Boqkete , we booked through chat I had no idea the protest was horrible while booking the trip it would of been nice if the company staff would have been honest about the situation in chiriquii instead of having to take a flight just to do a hike we were hoping to do Rafting but again were weren't told that it was not available due to the road blocks and it was very limited, once we got to the Boqkete the situation wasn't great lots of places closed, for our next trip we will plan another country that seem safer, with the roads blocks the transports charge doble rate. Anyone going to Panama make sure there isn't no roadblocks.Written 21 November 2023
- Fuad_120 contributionsWell done . Highest recommendationThis company goes all out to make sure that you are well taken care. Ed was amazing ..he went all out to make us comfortable and took me to the airport at 530am to get past the heavy protests road blocks . Thank you . The wster rafting was superb and safe so too the zipline ,and trail walks. I recommend them highly . I cant forget lilly .excellent organiser...Written 26 October 2023
- MariaHuemmer0 contributionsKind, communicative and excellent resource to plan a perfect trip!Use them! They are excellent! Figure out how you're getting to Panama and then contact them! They will help you figure out how to get to boquete and then personalize your trip for you for everything from different activities to your transportation to wherever you're going to go. We had a fantastic time with all of the guides and they were very communicative through WhatsApp before and during the trip. We did the river rafting with airport pickup from David, Volcano 4x4, hot springs, canyon, cloud forest hike, and transport back to David. We will absolutely come back with our kids and we know we'll all be in good hands! They went above and beyond to take care of us, give us recommendations, and even pick us up from our hotel since it was a very far. This is how travel companies should all be. Thanks for setting the bar high!Written 19 October 2023

Our guide grew up on the land surrounding the tour. He is enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the area.
Without him, we would have seen only plants. He showed us a hummingbird on the nest, crazy insects, and all sorts of cool flora/fauna.
We did the tour in the afternoon, which was way too hot. Recommend morning hikes

This was a fairly easy and scenic hike. It’s something you could do yourself, but going with our guide, Jaime, was more than worth it. He grew up in the area and knew both the human and the natural history well. We saw things that we never would have seen or noticed on our own—including two quetzals (a male and a female) through his spotting scope. This was really special.

Our guide, Jaime, was fantastic and made the experience one of the highlights of our trip to Boquete. Jaime was thoroughly knowledgeable about not just the area, but also about the history, the biomes and the impact of the broader climate on the area. We really enjoyed our hike, and we saw several Quetzal birds!

Jaime our guide was fantastic super knowlegable and took great pictures of us along the trail! we ended up seeing four waterfalls with translucent butteflies and cool insects dotted along the trail. some parts of the trail required a little athleticism as there is a rope on some steep muddy parts. wear comfortable shoes to hike in!
When we went the clouds actually lifted and we enjoyed a very sunny bright hike through all the waterfalls. It was great if you visit Boquete, You have to visit the cloud forest!

My kids and I took the Pipeline trail guided hike in hopes of seeing the Quetzal. This is the easy hike - so they say. It is still a bit strenuous and if you are older or afraid of heights it is a bit scary. At one point you Traverse the river on two old pieces of pipe; at another you cross on fallen trees. I am afraid of heights and didn’t enjoy that part. The elevation is quite high as well so it’s a tough hike if you aren’t used to the elevation. We did see six or seven Quetzal as well as a mama and baby sloth. Truly a great experience and I recommend it - but be aware of some of the challenges. I wore my hiking boots and was glad that I did.

Good exercise, but nothing too strenuous. Our 10-year old loved it! We saw and learned so much about local vegetation, animals, water, and we were lucky enough to see a few quetzals. Our tour guide Jaime was brilliant and guided us in a safe and steady way. Eddie back at the base "camp" in Boquete was very informative, speaks perfect English (and Spanish) and helped us to select the most appropriate trips for our schedule.

Hello TeamBOA!
we really would like to go on this tour, we are 2 persons, my girlfriend and me.
It was not possible to buy ticket for only 2 persons, is there any way to book at 14.08 anyway ? Perhaps if other persons joining ?
Thank you very much in forward!
Best,

Buen día; por favor como viajo en solitario me encuentro que la mayoría de las excursiones desde Boca del Toro, requieren 2 o más personas. Salvo en la excursión de Cayo Zapatilla y Cayo Coral, que reserve y pagué). Es así? No puedo reservar ninguna de ellos siendo una sola persona? Muchas gracias al que responda este interrogante. Cordiales saludos.
