Day by Day Summary and Map

Day 1 - Sunday - Sep 15, 2024

Day 2 - Monday - Sep 16, 2024

Cartagena, Colombia

San Bernardo Islands, Colombia, Colombia

A historical tour of the colonial walled city and UNESCO World Heritage Site of Cartagena shows off its highlights. Wander narrow streets lined with colorful houses.

Day 3 - Tuesday - Sep 17, 2024

Capurgana, Colombia

Sapzurro, Colombia

Cruise the Caribbean coast of the Darien Gap to the tiny, almost-forgotten coastal towns of Capurgana and Sapzurro.

Or, take to the white-sand beaches and turquoise waters for snorkeling and beachcombing. (BLD)

Day 4 - Wednesday - Sep 18, 2024

Captain's Choice, United States

The Captain will find the best spots for today's adventure, based on our traditional wildlife, weather, and whim! Slather on the sunscreen and be sure to hydrate for a full day of adventures. Kayak, snorkel, swim, or hike - choose your own adventure. (BLD)

Day 5 - Thursday - Sep 19, 2024

San Blas Islands, Panama

You're in the Guna Yala (formerly the San Blas Islands)-360 islands dotted with palm trees, thatched-roofs, coconut groves, white-sand beaches-and they're perfect for snorkeling. Look around for a rainbow of reef fish, corals, rays, and sea turtles. Anything's possible in paradise. On land, meet the Guna people, one of the best-preserved cultures in the Americas. Learn about their culture and don't miss the chance to buy their detailed handcrafted "molas". In the Guna culture, an ornate mola with a detailed design is an item displayed with pride. (BLD)

Day 6 - Friday - Sep 20, 2024

Cruising the Panama Canal, Panama

Islands, forts, and sea life-bring your adventurous spirit. You're headed for the Panama Canal and along the way your captain has the say. Transiting the 48-mile passage is a bucket list experience. A story of engineering and human tenacity, it took over 75,000 workers to build, and takes you about eight hours to transit. Joined by a Canal Authority pilot, watch line handlers manage the ship through changing sea levels in the locks. Paired with videos and onboard narration, you'll cross the locks with a better understanding of this engineering marvel. Celebrate your transit with a top deck barbeque! (BLD)

Day 7 - Saturday - Sep 21, 2024

Isla de Iguana, Panama

Wake up in paradise. Start with fresh-brewed coffee and a little limbering up with guided stretches on deck. As always, the hardest part is picking the "what". Your guides know the trails and help you spot monkeys, hummingbirds, and towering balsa trees. Slip into the drink for a kayak or snorkel. Go exploring by skiff. Or, just kick back in a hammock under swaying palms. Then it's cruising time. Settle into a comfy lounge chair and take in the views. (BLD)

Day 8 - Sunday - Sep 22, 2024

Isla de Coiba, Panama

Sail through the islands of Coiba National Park. Named one of the world's top 10 diving sites, your day of play features snorkeling among abundant marine life and kayaking around rocky outcroppings. Hop to the park's main island for a stretch of the legs on a trail through this tropical jungle. Mantled howler monkeys, crested eagles, and four turtle species call Isla Coiba home. (BLD)

Day 9 - Monday - Sep 23, 2024

Golfo Dulce, Panama

A birder's haven, explore a botanical reserve exploding with vibrant color. From bromeliads, ginger plants, and heliconias, to toucans, hummingbirds, mischievous monkeys, and fluttering butterflies-there's a kaleidoscope of sights, sounds, and tastes in every tree and bush you pass on your walking tour. In Golfo Dulce, the "sweet gulf" which separates Osa Peninsula from the mainland and one of only four tropical fjords on the planet, explore the rare flora and fauna of mangroves by kayak and skiff. Bottlenose, spotted, and spinner dolphins also swim in the waters of this tucked away wilderness. (BLD)

Day 10 - Tuesday - Sep 24, 2024

Osa Conservation Area, Costa Rica, Costa Rica

Adventure lies around every bend in the isolated, wild Osa Conservation Area, home to the country's largest national park, Corcovado. Drake Bay, named after its discoverer Sir Francis Drake and fabled to house the explorer's hidden treasures, is also known for hundreds of distinct species of plants and trees and its diverse plant and animal species. A whopping 2.5% of the entire planet's biodiversity is found here-including all four of Costa Rica's monkeys, tree frogs, caimans, anteaters, scarlet macaws, coatis, and 16 different species of hummingbird. Explore this vast area putting feet to trail on an invigorating hike through the jungle. Cap off your week with a celebratory Farewell Dinner, and then join your expedition team for a slideshow highlighting your adventures. (BLD)
