A Fabulous Experience - A wonderful, exciting, enriching, experience in Panama. We've had many indigeneous community experiences globally, and Omer-Riko tours provided the most 'real', informative, and engaging one, w/o a doubt ! The very scenic long-canoe ride coupled with the hike through the national park to a waterfall, was energizing, and the guide was caring and knowledgeable. We can't wait to sign up with Omer for future experiences- he knows Panama !! Alan S.

Tour to Embera village - Omer was a great guide, very knowledgeable and easy going. He came on time, made us confortable and offered water and sun screen. He explained many things we don't know about the area and the indegenous population and remained in a great mood all the way. Thanks Omer 🙏

Great guide and great experience! - The tour offers an amazing experience and Omer, beside being an excellent guide, he is also a very nice person. He even managed to convince me to take a bath in the waterfall and that speaks volume on his persuasive skills but also about the level of confidence he transmits to the other people. The visit at Embera Village offers an unique experience and the fish they serve is great. I highly recommend this tour!

Best tour guy in Panama City - We highly recommend Omer from Riko tours , we booked two trips with him , one to the monkey Island and the Panama Canal and one to the Ambera natives with the waterfall. Both trips were absolutely amazing!!!! Omer is super friendly and educated Thank you Omer for making our Panamá experience unforgettable!!!

Unforgettable Experience! - My husband, two children and I spent an unforgettable day with Omer on the Chagres River. He picked us up in the morning in his private car, and took us to meet the Embera People at the river where we rode in their hand carved canoe to an inlet where we hiked to a lovely waterfall. Omer even took our curious son up to the top of the waterfall himself to see what the top looked like. After swimming in the waterfall, we continued our canoe ride down the river to one of the Embera villages where we met the chief and learned about their daily life. The villagers cooked lunch for us and we enjoyed the freshest fruit you could ever imagine! It was a truly unforgettable day mingling with the village children and elders and learning about a different way of life. Omer was a top notch host and took care if everything throughout the day. He also went above and beyond to ensure we were taken care of for the rest of our stay in Panama.
