A fun and unique experience - The tour took us into some small islands near Panama City and we were able to see and feed monkeys. They came right onto the boat and ate from your hand. Incredible time!...and the Sloth sanctuary was very fascinating to see them and be able to learn about them. Maylin was a great tour guide. Really enjoyed it!!
