Immerse Yourself in Indigenous Traditions

Kiki Waterfall Hike & Ngäbe Buglé Cultural Experience

Immerse yourself in the untouched beauty and rich cultural heritage of Panama with the Kiki Waterfall Hike & Ngäbe Buglé Cultural Tour, an exclusive full-day adventure offered by Seagull Cove Resort. This unforgettable experience takes you deep into the Chiriquí region, where breathtaking landscapes and ancient traditions come to life.

Your journey begins with a scenic drive through lush greenery, leading to the heart of Soloy and Cerro Banco, home to the Ngäbe Buglé, one of Panama’s most resilient and culturally rich indigenous communities. Here, you’ll gain a rare insight into their traditions, history, and spiritual connection to the land.

The highlight of this tour is the Kiki Waterfall Hike, a moderate trek through tropical forest trails that lead to a secluded, crystal-clear cascade hidden in the heart of nature. Accompanied by Ngäbe Buglé guides, you’ll learn about the diverse flora and fauna, uncover ancient legends, and experience the profound spiritual significance of this sacred site.

As part of this immersive experience, witness a cacao purification ritual, a sacred Ngäbe Buglé ceremony that symbolizes spiritual cleansing and renewal. This intimate tradition offers a deeper understanding of their ancestral wisdom and holistic way of life.

Following your waterfall adventure, you’ll visit a Ngäbe Buglé village, where you’ll be welcomed with warm hospitality. Discover their way of life through traditional crafts, storytelling, and authentic interactions that provide a glimpse into their enduring culture. To complete your experience, enjoy a delicious homemade meal, lovingly prepared using local ingredients and time-honored recipes.

Note: Soloy is approximately a one-hour drive from Boca Chica. The road conditions can be challenging, so we recommend preparing accordingly.

This isn’t just a tour, it’s a journey into Panama’s soul, where nature, history, and indigenous wisdom blend seamlessly to create an unforgettable adventure.
