Dawn on the Caribbean side feels different—thick humidity, river mirrors broken by paddle strokes, and a canopy of ceiba and almond trees that seems to move when the zip line riders scream past. This private day tour, about 1½ hours from Panama City, stitches together short river paddles, canopy lines across a valley, horseback tracks through farm roads, and a lowland hike that climbs only a few hundred meters but opens to broad valley views.
