I can't vouch for them, but alot of CC folks recommend MyFriendMario out of Colon.

I highly recommend OKEYDOKEY Tours with CHARLIE SOTO. He's very easy to work with. We had a new van for 10 people. He served water, sodas & beer. He took us to a banana plantation, took us to see the wild life, stopped at a fruit stand for us to try all kinds of fresh fruit (at no charge). We went ZIP LINING thru the tall trees, fantastic views. We did a boat ride thru one of the canals and then a typical Costa Rica lunch on the beach. Out tour lasted 8 hours & the cost was only $50 per person plus tip. I think if you google Okeydokey Tours you can find his website & what all he has to offer

Cartegna, Columbia; Colon, Panama; Puerto Quetzal;Guatemala, Puntarenas, Costa Rica

Thanks so much...I will google them!

We are doing the Panama Canal on the Century end of April. We have not been but have booked some tours and it looks much like your ports:

Colon: We booked with MY FRIEND MARIO to the Embera Villages.

Costa Rica: Booked with Odyssey Tours to Manuel Antonio Park. Reviews on Trip Advisor are all positive.

Guatemala: Ship tour to Anguilla.

There are a few other ports of call but we are doining it by ourselves without a tour.
