Read about the unique experiences of our guests on our speedboat trips across the Panama-Colombia border through the San Blas Islands. Unless otherwise mentioned, guests did not receive any discounts for writing about us – we believe that voluntary reviews and articles are most valuable. The texts are written in different languages, we highly recommend translating them!
One thing that you will see is that every single one of our trips is different. Since we travel in small groups, we are flexible to adapt the tour to the dynamic of the group and make sure our guests leave us happy and full of unique experiences.

“I opted to use the services of a Kuna-based company, San Blas Frontera, to be sure that my money would end up staying within the community. As well as meeting the Kuna communities, I was also lucky enough to enjoy the beautiful, sandy beach with not a care in the world. A different sunny island for each day of the year –definitely something I could get used to!”
