    Everything on time. Our guide was always ready and even helped me with spare shoes. The village is super clean and the Embera people are warm and friendly.

Emberá Tribe is one of the  7 indigenous ethnical communities in Panama.

They are very proud of their traditions and keep them alive by showing them to tourists.
