Panama's home of live, bio-active single variety honey. We also have a 200 sq meter butterfly house with over 30 local species of butterflies. Emerge yourself in the pollinators with a half day tour or else just swing buy for honey tastings and butterfly house (open 9-4), shop (open 9-4). We have a unique offering and we want to share it with people who like high quality honey, love nature and want to make a difference by supporting our small business. We are passionate about taste. We can offer honey tastings like no other. More varied than anywhere else in the world that we know of. We produce a vast range of different flavors of honey depending on the floral source. This is unique and only possible because of the enormous biodiversity in Western Panama around Volcan Baru. This small Isthmus has Atlantic and Pacific coasts, 11,000 ft mountains and just about every type of forest and grassland in between. Some of our honeys are rare, some we have in larger quantity. We are serious about health. Our honey and our honey bees are very healthy. We sell raw minimally filtered honey. More than that though, our honey is pure and pristine in ways that are not possible in most of the developed world: 1. Most of our honeys are from wild plants which have no chemical treatment and are utterly pristine 2. Our bees are healthy, we do not need to feed antibiotics or miticides We want to teach people to better understand how to care for our pollinators. We offer a tour on our honey farm in Boquete. We treasure all types of bees and keep on the farm a wide variety of forage for bees, different types of native bees to illustrate how bees and plants are meant to exist together. Our butterfly house is 200 sq meters and is full of fun and activity. Sure to delight all ages.

We were with a large group. The owner and her staff were organized, informative and entertaining. The tour was so personable. The guide was so willing to stop and answer questions. The honey tasting after the tour was eye opening, never thought there could be so many different flavors. This is a MUST see excursion.

5. Panama Canal
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 18,620 reviews
Operating since 1914 and considered one of the wonders of the world, this fifty-mile waterway transports ships by raising them from sea level to more than 85 feet via a series of gravity-powered locks.
Reviewed By royv647 - Traralgon, Australia
We went through the Panama Canal on the Norwegian Bliss and it was a great experience, marvellous to see this engineering marvel and learn more about it’s history. The early history is soo sad when thousands of workers died from Scarlet Fever when the French tried to build it many years ago but gave the idea away. It is a very slow process and takes all day to get through, once through the first lock the others are all the same so it may become boring for many. It is one of the worlds marvels so do it if you can but don’t expect too much excitement
6. Amador Causeway (Calzada de Amador)
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 4,130 reviews
Located at the southern entrance of the Panama Canal and stretching nearly three kilometers into the Pacific Ocean, this popular causeway features many tourist-related venues and activities including hotels, restaurants, and jogging and biking trails.
Reviewed By loridharland - Brandon, Canada
A must see when visiting Panama. The Amador is a great walk/bike or drive with amazing views of Panama City and ocean. Multiple restaurants, shops and breath taking vistas are all within reach and a treat for the senses. Rent a bike and cruise the Causeway, grab an ice cream cone and watch the ships sail by. What could be better?
7. Casco Viejo

4.5 based on 11,610 reviews
This charming old community’s churches, pedestrian walkways and historical plazas and palaces make it a must-see on any tour.
Reviewed By WarrenCWade - Belleville, Canada
They’re continuing to renew this old part and it is probably the most tourist packed part of PTY. Many good restaurants and bars, both ground level and rooftop for evening views especially, museums, squares with entertainment, churches, and local craftsman selling their wares. Highly recommended for a day of sightseeing/shopping local Gina wares (Mola), and food/drink.

Reviewed By ArtSchmall - Margate, United States
We rode on Avenida Balboa several times on our Panama vacation. We took a guided tour of of the Panama Canal, as well as two days on the hop on, hop off bus tour, and Avenida Balboa was an important part of the experience. There are numerous places to take photos of the city skyline, as well as many interesting buildings in the Casco Viejo section and the downtown part of the city. We passed several famous statues along the way that we also photographed.
9. Gatun Locks

We crossed the Gatun Locks on a cruise ship. Since there are 3 locks and the operations last for hours, you get plenty of time to experience all the maneuvers needed to bring the ships from the Atlantic Ocean up to Lake Gatun
