Experience Panama’s Rainforest from Above
Discover one of Panama’s most spectacular eco-adventures with our Gamboa Aerial Tram & Sloth Sanctuary Tour. Just a short drive from Panama City, this unforgettable experience takes you deep into the lush tropical rainforest, where breathtaking views and incredible wildlife await.
Ride the famous Gamboa Aerial Tram as you glide peacefully above the rainforest canopy, enjoying panoramic views of the Chagres River, the surrounding jungle, and, on clear days, parts of the Panama Canal. This unique perspective offers an incredible opportunity to observe the rainforest from above while searching for monkeys, colorful tropical birds, and even wild sloths in their natural habitat.
Your adventure continues with a visit to the Sloth Sanctuary, where you’ll learn about the conservation and rehabilitation of Panama’s beloved two-toed and three-toed sloths. You’ll also explore fascinating exhibits featuring colorful poison dart frogs, butterflies, orchids, turtles, and other native wildlife that make Panama one of the world’s richest biodiversity hotspots.
