Tour Of The Week
Panama Private Island Escape
DISCOVER A TRUE TROPICAL ISLAND EXPERIENCE – PERFECT FOR FAMILIES, COUPLES, OR SINGLE TRAVELERS
Have you ever dreamt of a getaway to a private island resort? Somewhere far away from the crowds? Don’t look any further. Isla Palenque is a luxury island resort and a sanctuary for curious travelers like you who seek a true, tropical island of natural beauty. With 8 modern luxury Casitas and a Villa Estate, it is the first of its kind in Panama, Central America.
The private island stay is surely the highlight of this Panama tour. But we have also included a close second (for many probably the main highlight), a Partial Transit of the famous Panama Canal, and other unforgettable features, such as a stay in Panama City’s beautiful historic old town, Casco Antiguo.
And no Panama visit is complete without a visit to the Chiriqui Highlands around Boquete to hike, visit waterfalls, and taste the famous Panama coffee.
Costa Rica
First-timer’s guide to Costa Rica: La Fortuna, Monteverde, Manuel Antonio and more
Despite the many tourism-friendly conveniences, there was no doubt we weren’t in Kansas anymore. We saw monkeys from our hotel balcony and sloths along the side of the road. We hiked deep into the jungle and sipped coffee from beans picked from a nearby mountaintop field.
And we crossed our fingers as we dodged pedestrians and motorcyclists on the roadways in our rental car.
But then, what’s an international trip without a little adventure?
We spent seven full days in Costa Rica, less than half the size of Ohio, bounded by Nicaragua to the north, Panama to the south, the Pacific to the west, and the Caribbean Sea to the east.
And yet, even after seven days, it felt like we had barely scratched the surface of this fascinating space.
Panama
The 8 must-visit places in Panama, from city to coast
There’s so much more to Panama than its world-famous waterway.
Yes, its canal is a whopper – and something you won't want to miss – but this Central American country offers lots more besides. With myriad islands, wildlife-rich tropical forests, and miles of pristine coastline on two oceans, it'll keep you under its spell for weeks.
Squeezed between Costa Rica and Colombia, this narrow land bridge and biological corridor may be compact, but it packs a lot in. From a cosmopolitan capital filled with state-of-the-art skyscrapers to the splendid isolation of the Guna Yala Archipelago, there’s a good chance you’ll want to extend your trip here. Especially once you hear about its adrenaline-fueled adventure in the highlands around Boquete and the island hopping opportunities in Bocas del Toro.
These are the eight best places to visit in Panama.

Travel insurance could help with weather-related flight cancellations. Here's how
With unpredictable weather and worker shortages, no airline is immune to widespread cancellations. Hundreds of thousands of travelers learned this the hard way recently, as they became stranded in airports across the country in the run-up to the Fourth of July holiday weekend.
For many of them, buying traveler’s insurance could have helped improve their situation.
The hurdles people must clear to get out of town when the system grinds to a halt can be excruciating.
