CHAGRES CHALLENGE |
| |
I just received an
excited phone call from Daryl Date upon his return from Panama. He ranted
and raved over what a great time he had with Adventuras Panama on the
Chagres. He praised your staff for being so much fun, but at the same time
very professional and safety conscious.. He was so impressed with the entire
experience he could not thank me enough for recommending your company and
the Chagres.
So, I in turn would like to thank you and your company for taking very good
care of an old friend. I am still amazed that your company runs the Chagres,
it's an astonishing compliment to your tenacity and the skill of Adventuras
Panama's guides and staff. Through their skill you allow others to share one
of Panama's natural treasures.
The only problem is that Daryl made me jealous of the trip, now I can't wait
to schedule my own trip with my amigos when next I'm in Panama.
Regards,

I was on the last trip on the Chagres. I
was the guy who has guided in the States.
I have to say that you guys did a great job. I can't believe the logistics
of the trip and that you put it all together with a great amount of
professionalism.
I've rafted many rivers in the U.S. and I have to say that none of them had
the beauty of the Chagres. Your guides were very talented and new the ins
and outs of every bend of the river.
The highlight of the trip for me was seeing the fish at the lunch beach. I
am an avid fisherman and I miss the free flowing streams of North Idaho. I
am planning of doing the challenge again, but I would like to make it a 2
day, or even 3 day trip so I can experience the fishing.
I live here in Panama, and I know you have problems with getting guides for
the weekends. I am available on the weekends for guiding, or safety boating
in an inflatable as well. I don't speak hardly any Spanish, so I would be
good for your English speaking guests.
I can't say enough about what a great time I had, and I know our group is
with me on that. I look forward to booking another trip with you. Next time
we'll go after the big water.

I wanted to let you know what a wonderful time we all had kayaking
yesterday! Everyone in our group loved it - and we had a wide range of
ages and abilities (and languages!). The guides were great, very friendly
and knowledgable, and we all felt very comfortable with them. The river
was beautiful, and we saw lots of wildlife (thanks Nelson!). We could not
have asked for a better day!
Thank you for all your help getting it arranged, we would not have
wanted to miss this!
Omar and Tony are looking forward to rafting with you all on Friday : )

We all had a great
time on our trip with Aventuras Panama. The paddling and snorkeling were
enjoyed by all. The crew you sent with us treated us well and did a great
job with the cooking and all the chores. We are not use to being pampered so
well. Our daughter Alena learned how to roll a kayak and we are all very
pleased.
The fruit selection was good and we consumed great quantities. Our group
would like to have had a few more desserts and some more candy or granola
bars to boost our energy while paddling.
We will certainly recommend Aventuras Panama. I will be send you some
pictures via AOL. Open them as a guest. Thanks for sharing your photo's with
us.
Best regards,

mide June through mid December
"Wow! What a ride. I've rafted in Colorado, Tennessee,
and Costa Rica ---- our trip down the Mamoni River ranks in the top of my
list. There was time for thrillin' and chillin' and everything in between;
what beautiful, verdant countryside and clear healthy water. There was plenty
of technical challenge on several rapids to keep us super-charged and I was
very impressed with the competency of our guide, as well as their knowledge
of the area history and the river itself. Definitely an adrenaline rush on
several of the Class IV's....we got our money's worth and much more. I agree.....atrevete
a vivir! Hope to see you again on this wonderful river". Angie T.,

"I can't say
enough about the raft trip provided. The guys did a super job. VERY
professional, and very kind in dealing with a bunch of seriously amateur
river-rafters! I would recommend your company to anyone!" - Paul

| Note: low water conditions : usually
mid December - March "Thanks for everything. We had a blast at
Mamoni. I must admit, kayaking with two people is much more difficult than
solo. However, we enjoyed every minute of it . . . and the guys made it even
better. When I return to the States I'm going to buy a solo kayak and master
the roll.
Pura Vida"
