Things to do in Panama

Most famous for its celebrated canal, Panama offers far more than pioneering feats of engineering and although a trip to see the renowned locks and huge ships is intriguing, there are many more things to see and do in this diverse country.

An early start along the country’s Pipeline Road provides world-class birdwatching with 300 different species being recorded in a single day, while the surrounding rainforest is home to howler monkeys, anteaters and agoutis. You can also visit dreamy tropical islands, snorkel among colourful reefs, meet indigenous communities and explore colonial forts, all in a country the size of Ireland.
