Panama

Gamboa Rainforst Reserve

4.0

Property overview

Tucked deep in the mystical Soberanía National Park at the meeting place of the Chagres River and the Panama Canal, Gamboa Rainforest Reserve is an exceptional destination. It’s where contemporary comfort and warm, fascinating adventures come together to offer the best accommodation for experiencing the unspoiled beauty of the Panamanian rainforest.

Just 30 minutes from Panama City on 340 acres overlooking the Panama Canal, you can commune with nature in a pristine environment that explorers and pirates once tread. Each of our well-appointed, eco- lodge-style rooms and suites offers an authentic and relaxing escape from the bustle and distractions of everyday life.

From exhilarating aerial tram rides, night safaris on the Chagres River and Panama Canal kayaking adventures to guided boat tours, fishing expeditions and much more, Gamboa Rainforest Reserve is an exotic vacation sanctuary, where individuals, groups and families enjoy memories to last a lifetime.

The Gamboa Rainforest Reserve design is inspired by the former Hotel Tivoli, whose construction began in 1905 and opened to the public in 1907. It was located at the foot of ancon hill and had many famous guests during its existence, like President Theodore Roosevelt in December of 1906 right before its opening.
