Had an awesome time, we saw the beautiful canal, monkeys, birds, turtles and lizars. Including ships near the canal. This was a good trip, with time left to enjoy the city. The guides were good at getting the animals to come up to us. The boat ride was generally smooth. We had a good day. I recommend the tour. Family, Single, or Couple firendly.

We had a great time on the Monkey Island and Gatun Lake tour. Highly recommend My Friend Mario to others. The tour van/bus was comfortable and air conditioned. Great driver. Our guide was Maribel, she was wonderful and taught us quite a lot about monkeys and their behavior. The boat was comfortable and life jackets were provided. Everything was clean and in good condition. The boat driver and his assistant were really nice and helped us interact with the monkeys. They took time to stop and see other wildlife. Other tourist brought bananas, but peanuts were provided. We saw three different types of monkeys, only one type you can feed bananas. Another type will eat bananas, but they take one piece and disappear. They won't come back. Please follow the advice of your guides for everyone to have a great experience.
