Our Story

A Little About Us

Starting out with a handful of palm-thatched cabins on Isla Iguana in 2008, we have grown over time to one of the main operators in the San Blas area. From Iguana we moved to Isla Naranjo Chico, running successfully Cabanas Casso (see: Lonely Planet) and started our company San Blas Frontera in 2017 with new day-tours and our highly popular 3-day island hopping trip across the Panama-Colombia border.

 

We are a local, family-run business with close ties to our local communities and culture. Luis, our “creative head”, is a visionary and passionate world traveler – having visited over 30 countries, he constantly brings home new ideas to improve our services while preserving our local connection.

Philosophy

Our Top Mission

We are on a mission to share the beauty of our home country while respecting & preserving our Kuna heritage and mother nature. We want to provide you with a unique and authentic impression of our simple lifestyle paired with an unforgettable island adventure and great service.

Our offer

Authentic travel experiences

While our own cabins and restaurant are currently under renovation, we meanwhile continue to offer our day tours and multi-day tours as before with a focus both on island trips and cultural trips (tours involving visits to villages might be impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic).

 

We have paired with some of the best islands in the region and put together some exciting packages for multi-day stays on those islands. 

Experienced

We have over 12 years of experience in hosting guests and running tours to the San Blas islands

Personal

Small number of guests and no one-size-fits-all tourism – we want to connect personally with our guests 

Authentic

We are a Kuna family and all  of us, incl. our employees, grew up in the San Blas area with our local culture & customs

Transparent

Know what you are booking – at all stages we inform you what your package includes and what additional costs are expected

Local

As a local company, we source as much as possible locally so your money goes to the local people and communities

Open for suggestions

Sometimes not everything might be perfect, so we actively encourage you to give us feedback and promise you to incorporate it
