Start with a pickup and a 45-minute's drive from Panama City to Chico River, inside the Panama Canal watershed.
Board a motorized canoe for a 40-minute trip along the river, then stretch your legs on a short walk and meet Embera village, who have traditionally lived and worked at the edge of rivers and are known throughout Panama for their distinctive songs, dances, and costumes.
