So here’s what I’m thinking after reading a few guidebooks about our trip to Panama in February (yes, Panama. February!). We’ll stay in Panama City a few days then fly to David and stay in Boquete, an eco-tourism spot in the highlands near the Baru volcano in the western Chiriqui region, then onto the Bocas del Toro Archipelago, seven islands in the Caribbean – specifically Bocas Town on Isla Colon for a few days. Yes!

you are doing the exact same trip that we made last year in January – we fell in love so much with the country and with Boquete that we are back here for 5 months- if you want any tips etc we would gladly help you out. Each area of the country is so different and so exciting.
