- Seasonal patterns and agricultural traditions
- Panama's culinary secrets
- From tart to creamy, sweet to earthy, this tasting experience invites you to rediscover fruit the Panamanian way.

Would repeat in a heartbeat
Pleasantly surprised. Markets has a very special atmosphere. The group was not huge, which made it much more comfortable.

Repetiría sin dudar
Una experiencia redonda. Comparé precios antes de reservar y esta era la opción más conveniente. Que venga con degustación guiada de más de 15 frutas exóticas lo hace más completo. Volveríamos a contratarlo.

Just brilliant. The fotos tomadas por nuestros asistentes durante la experiencia detail added a lot. Excellent guide with a deep knowledge of the local history. It costs more than going alone, but it saves you all the planning. One of the best things we have booked online.

Nos encantó
Muy contentos con la elección. El guía manejaba los dos idiomas del grupo sin problema. Panamá tiene un clima muy especial. Se agradece el degustación guiada de más de 15 frutas exóticas. Nos avisaron de un cambio de horario con tiempo suficiente. Lo que no me gustó tanto fue la parada final, medio apurada. Lo recomiendo sin dudar.

Impecável, não tenho nenhuma ressalva. Pagamos bem menos que outras opções e a experiência foi igualmente boa. A equipe em terra foi atenciosa desde o primeiro contato. Pegamos um guia excelente, cheio de histórias e bom humor.

Buena experiencia, con un detalle que conviene saber antes. El servicio fue atento sin ser invasivo. Lo único es que la información previa podría ser más clara sobre el punto de encuentro. Recomendable en general.
