A blast at San Blas! - The trip itself was an amazing experience! We went on the most beautiful sunny day so the views were endless. The “community” visit was a wonderful educational & cultural experience. The guides were friendly and tried their best to communicate. Most do not speak English, so be prepared to use your translator app. Also, the boat ride back to the mainland was like an amusement park splash ride, so keep your bathing suits on!

trip somewhat rustic but worth it! - The journey up there😂create it seems to beat you all, the road is very but very ugly. how an hour of travel, the place when you arrive is beautiful. in short it depends on each person what you support and do not vomit on the journey

Relaxation and a nice experience. - I went with my partner and we loved Pelican Island. Being in the same place as La Casa de Papel is great, but the best thing was the silence and total disconnection, it is the perfect place to forget everything.

Beautiful and simple experience! - The best thing we did was follow the advice to carry a dry bag. In the boat, water splashes around and so we kept the cell phones safe. The experience is rustic, but authentic. The food on Yanis Island was simple and fresh, just what you expect from a day in paradise. Don’t forget the cash for tickets in the region!

Excellent organization and responsible. - The organization is impeccable. We were contacted minutes before pickup and the 4x4 transport was very punctual. They make things much easier for you so you only worry about carrying your passport and cash for entry into the region, Zero Stress!

Incredible journey - Beautiful day in the San Blas Archipelago. The landscapes are postcard worthy, especially the Piscina Natural. It is a rather rustic and authentic adventure, far from the luxury of the big hotels. Transportation in 4x4 is a bit hectic, but the Guna community welcome is warm. Guaranteed total disconnection in the middle of coconut trees and turquoise water

Definitely NOT a tour! It’s an experience! - Pickup is very early but it’s fine because you want more time at the beach. My driver was punctual and very calm with his driving. The driver made 2-3 stops along the way for a bathroom / stretch your legs break. If you get sick on drives, I would suggest taking a motion sickness pill because the road to the boat is very very winding!!!! When you get to the meeting point for the boat, your drive will link you with one of the boat operators to take you to the beaches. Your drive is NOT your tour guide, just the driver to & from your accommodations. The guide stopped at a village 1st to see how they live on the island, then we stopped at 3-4 other islands to swim & sun bathe. The last stop was for lunch where we stayed for about 3 hours. The water was very calm & clear. It was a very nice relaxing day spent at the beach. Would definitely do it again. They only issue is the drive to the boat but once you get to the beach you forget about the drive until it’s time to go back lol

a movie experience - It felt so majestic and peaceful! A friend told me that some scenes from Money Heist were filmed right there on Isla Pelícano, and you can definitely feel that cinematic vibe

No wifi or signal, just paradise. - Stunning islands, but don't expect any Wi-Fi or cell service out there. My signal dropped as soon as we left the port. It’s great for relaxing, but just be prepared to be offline all day

Cute and rustic experience. - Amazing scenery, tight logistics. You share a van and a boat with several groups. Carry cash and a physical passport.
