Afro-Latino Culture Trip


This trip will be an experience of a lifetime navigating this amazingly beautiful city & country.

Our guide will be taking us off the beaten path into places we wouldn't be able to go to and experience on our own. We will see things and experience the Afro-Latino culture in ways most tourists will never get the chance while eating local dishes at black-owned restaurants and experiencing the true Afro-Panamanian culture.

As a voluntourism initiative, each year we donate black dolls and kids' books with melanated characters in Spanish because of the lack of representation down in Panama.

♦ If you're always late and don't like some early mornings. You are subject to getting left if you can't respect other people's time.
