Day-by-day itinerary*

Day 1: The Teak Trail
The city fades behind you as the road stretches ahead, winding through Panama’s countryside. The early morning light casts a golden glow over rolling hills, and you settle in for the ride—3.5 hours of changing landscapes, each more stunning than the last. Excitement builds with every mile.
Somewhere along the way, you pause for an included picnic lunch: fresh sandwiches, snacks, ice-cold drinks. A simple meal, made perfect by the setting. Then, it’s back on the road, deeper into the heart of the country, until you reach the Torti Plantation.
From here, the real adventure begins. You climb onto trucks that rumble into the plantation, carrying you into the world of teak. Towering trees line the path, their canopies filtering the sunlight, the scent of earth and wood filling the air. This isn’t just a visit—it’s a chance to walk through an investment in the making, to see firsthand why teak is called a “money tree.”
Wear comfy shoes. There will be rugged terrain and you’ll want to take your time, breathing it all in.
Day 2: Panama City Wonders
From the moment you step out, the energy of Panama City pulls you in: lively streets, modern towers, history woven into every corner. Today is all about diving into the city’s heart, and there’s no better place to start than the Miraflores Locks Museum. With your private guide leading the way, you get the inside scoop on one of the world’s greatest engineering marvels. The numbers, the stories, the sheer scale of it all; it’s mind-blowing. Then, you step outside, and there it is. A massive cargo ship inches through the locks, guided with absolute precision. Watching it glide past, so close you could almost reach out and touch it, is nothing short of mesmerizing.
By now, you’ve worked up an appetite, and lunch is anything but ordinary. At Sabroso Panamá, you'll be greeted by bright colors, sweeping views of the city and sea, music in the air, and the smell of something amazing from the kitchen. We're talking real Panamanian flavors, recipes passed down for generations, native ingredients, that deep, home-cooked kind of comfort. The warm staff will treat you like you’ve been coming here for years. This lunch is not included in the price of the tour, but it might just be the meal you’ll be talking about long after the trip is over. While you're here, the past two days swirl in your mind—the landscapes, the teak trees, the pulse of the city. And as you take that last sip, you know one thing for sure: Panama has a way of staying with you.
This isn’t your typical tour. You’re not just ticking places off a list: you’re stepping into an opportunity. Out in the Torti teak plantation, the numbers and market trends fade into the background, replaced by something real. You’re walking through rows of towering trees, their future value growing right in front of you. This is what investing looks like: steady, sustainable, built to last.
Teak is a strong market, a chance to align profit with purpose, to invest in something that gives back; to the land, to the future, to you. And while you could read about it in reports, nothing compares to standing here, feeling the earth beneath your feet, surrounded by the quiet confidence of trees that will be worth more tomorrow than they are today.
So, the question isn’t just why invest in teak? It’s why not? Ready to see it for yourself?
What’s included
From the moment you arrive, you'll enjoy a pickup at Le Meridien Hotel or the Las Américas Golden Tower Panama Hotel to ensure a smooth start to your journey. You’ll be transported safely to Darién and around the Torti Plantation, making sure you can focus on the experience ahead. The lunch picnic on Day 1 is also included in the price of the tour.
What’s not included
Flights to and from Panama aren’t included, and dinner on the first night isn’t part of the package. But this gives you the freedom to explore and choose for yourself what will delight you most.
Lunch at Sabroso Panamá is not included in the tour price. The same goes for accommodation for the nights of the 21st and the 22nd.
While we don’t offer shuttle service to and from the airport, transportation is easy! We recommend taking a taxi or Uber, which typically costs between $15–$25 USD each way. Alternatively, you can also check with your hotel, as many offer airport transportation services directly.
