From Discovery and CruisingTo Advanced Mountaineering Expedition
Panama tours and adventures offer a rare mix of jungle, coastline and culture, linking the Caribbean and Pacific through a compact, diverse landscape that rewards active exploration.
Travel across rainforest-covered highlands, along tropical shores and into communities where Indigenous and colonial histories shape everyday life.
Snorkel warm Caribbean waters, explore forest trails rich with wildlife, and slow the pace in laid-back coastal towns before arriving in Panama City - a lively capital where modern Latin America meets centuries of global trade. Visits to the Panama Canal add insight into one of the world’s great engineering achievements and its lasting influence on the region.
Designed for travellers who value variety and immersion, our Panama adventures combine walking, swimming and cultural discovery into a well-balanced tour that reveals the country’s depth without rushing the experience.
From the service work in the school, to trekking and camping near the lake, through to the extraordinary opportunity to meet His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama, and finally our visit to Agra and the Taj Mahal, each experience was thoughtfully curated and seamlessly delivered.

Our recent European tour with World Expeditions was, quite simply, an exceptional experience. From the outset, it was clear how much care had gone into planning this school tour: transitions between cities were smooth, the days were well paced, and adjustments were made seamlessly when needed, without any disruption to the overall experience.

What stood out most was their willingness to listen. They genuinely took feedback on board and continued to optimise our itinerary right up until the last minute to ensure we had the best possible experience. Nothing ever felt too much trouble, and their commitment to delivering a meaningful and well-run trip was evident throughout.

Joe Lodge, Wex Schools International risk manager, was also part of the World Expeditions Team, who accompanied our group, and he worked well with our staff to improve the safety and processes that make a school trip like this run smoothly. The risk management documentation was excellent too.

The trek provided great opportunities to build confidence, resilience, teamwork, and new friendships. It encouraged people to step outside their comfort zones and achieve things they may not have thought possible.

The World Expeditions Schools team provided outstanding support, managing planning, paperwork and Department of Education requirements with ease, while tailoring the program perfectly to the Duke of Edinburgh’s Gold Award.

Whether they were cooking incredible meals, leading us to waterfalls, helping us summit Mount Ossa, or showing us rivers to swim in along the way, they brought so much knowledge and enthusiasm to every moment.
