Difficulty: Simple

I'm lucky enough to have lived in Colombia for a long time before moving to Panama. This trip reflects what I liked best about Colombia: villages far from the crowds and the discovery of the coffee region from the less touristy side. As the seaside resort was more attractive on the Panama side, it was unthinkable not to include the famous San Blas archipelago!
