IMPORTANT INFORMATION
TRANSPORTATION FROM PANAMA CITY TO THE PORT
• Roundtrip 4x4 transportation from your accommodation (Hotel/Hostel/Apartment) in the Downtown of Panama City only.
We won't pick anyone up from these places: Westin Playa Bonita, Dreams Playa Bonita, or any of the hotels in Playa Blanca.
In the areas far from downtown , the meeting point can be: supermarket, gas station or parking lot (to be decided during the reservation).
San Blas Dreams is not responsible for reservations outside this area.
• Every day from 5:30 am we start to pick up our customers meaning we can reach to you from that time to 6:00 am, SUVs we have fit up to 6 people, which means that depending on the route before you can collect other customers. Sometimes it happens that customers are not ready and we are forced to wait for them (we try not to leave anyone behind). In this case we ask you for a little patience, we always do our best to be with you as soon as possible.
LATE CHECK OUT
Late check out included. Return to Panama City between 6 and 7pm approximately.
With late check out you must leave the cabin after breakfast to allow cleaning and have it ready for the new guests who will arrive. You will have a place to leave your things until you leave the island (around 3:00 p.m. on the last day).
USEFUL TIPS
• From December to April it is very high season, the places on the islands are limited, we recommend booking as soon as possible.
• It is advisable to carry only a small bag with what is necessary to spend the days on the islands, leave your large suitcase in the city, there is not enough space in the car and it could get wet during the boat trip.
• This "Comarca" (Guna Yala or more commonly known as San Blas Islands) is a paradise where it is only allowed to people from its community to work there, tourism is something new to them, their infrastructure is currently under development and service might not be entirely satisfactory in some cases, if you are an intransigent or demanding person with schedules or if you are looking for a 5 stars service, this tour is not for you, but if you wish to enjoy extraordinary beaches in the Caribbean then we invite you to book with us.
We really care about our reputation. We’re not a booking agency that tells you whatever you want to hear to get you to book a trip.
Please read all our information well.
