Itinerary

Day 1 Depart from the UK for San José arriving the same evening.
Days 2&3 By road and boat upriver to rustic Tortuga Lodge in Tortuguero National Park.

Day 6 Return by road to San José for the night.
Day 7 Fly to Panama City.
Day 8 Full-day transit of the Panama Canal through several awesomely-engineered locks (if only a partial transit is operating, the cost will be reduced. Transits operate on alternate Saturdays only.)
Days 9-11 Fly to Boca Grande in the undeveloped archipelago of Bocas del Toro and unwind at a friendly waterfront inn within strolling distance ofbare-foot beach bars.
Day 12 Return to Panama City for flight to the UK, arriving day 13.
