San Blas Tours

 



If you're planning a visit to San Blas, you'll want to take a tour that involves visiting the Kuna's, the local people who live on the islands. The Kuna's have lived in the area for centuries, and they have long since taken control of the islands. Visiting one of their villages will require a bit of planning, as not all Guna communities are welcoming to visitors. You could even face a San Blas ban if you enter one of the deserted islands, but these are rare. Even if you're welcome to visit these people, you'll need to make sure that you don't violate their cultural beliefs.

Prices for San Blas tours vary. Prices are higher during the high season, from November to April. This is due to the number of tourists traveling during these months. Most tours include a pick-up service, but make sure that you have enough money to pay on the day of the tour. Generally, San blas tours cost about $40 per person. To avoid paying more, book in advance to ensure that you get the lowest price.

The San Blas archipelago is a group of islands off the eastern coast of Panama. It is now officially referred to as the Guna Yala Islands, after the indigenous Guna people. There are 365 islands in total, but only 49 are inhabited. Despite the size of the islands, most are tiny enough that you can walk around in less than 15 minutes. For those looking for a more relaxed pace, you'll find that the Guna Yala is a perfect place to unwind.

One of the best ways to visit San Blas is to book a day-trip from Panama City. Depending on your interests, day trips to the islands can cost between US$100 and US$500 per person. These trips usually include a lancha, 4WD transfers, and a local lunch. However, you won't have enough time to see everything. To avoid these hassles, you should book a 1-night tour to the islands, which includes all transfers and hut accommodation.

While the San Blas islands may not look like the perfect vacation destination, they can offer an escape from the hustle and bustle of the mainland. You'll find an endless string of coconut-fringed islands with towering palm trees. These islands are truly like something from a fairytale - but without the hassle of modern life. Whether you're a beach lover or a water lover, the San Blas Islands are a vacation destination worth planning.

Most San Blas tours begin in Panama City and include a speedboat ride from the city. This takes about three hours. Once on the islands, you'll need to wait until sunset to catch the last water taxi. The best time to leave Panama City is around sunrise and the last water taxi leaves the island at sunset. To help you decide which island you'd like to visit, consult our top beaches page. Then decide on a tour company based on your budget and preferences.
