Our Location and Getting to Boquete Panama

Take your initial flight into San Jose, Costa Rica (SJO) or Panama City, Panama (PTY).

In San Jose you can choose between a flight to David (DAV) with Air Panama ($250.00 round trip) or you can take a taxi to the bus station "Coca Cola" for $3.00-5.00. Here buy a bus ticket to David for $ 15.00 (7-8 hours).

If you plan to spend a day or so in Costa Rica and are looking for a wonderful ocean side place to stay, we recommend the Finca Bavaria in Uvita. It's about a 4-5 hour drive from San Jose, about 1/2 way between San Jose and the Panama border.

Otherwise you arrive at Panama City and take a flight with Air Panama to David for $230.00 (round trip).

To find hotel options in Panama City, David, Costa Rica - or Worldwide - we recommend Hotels Combined.

If you plan to stay in Panama City for a night or a month - and want something other than a Hotel, we recommend Los Cuatro Tulipanes: a fleet of 12 luxury apartments located in the heart of Panama City's historic district Casco Viejo, the most authentic place to stay in the capital city. Living like a local never felt so good!

One nice suggestion can be to stay in Gorgona, one hour from Panama City away on the Pacific Coast. 10 minutes drive from the beach is available a little casita for 2 people, very cozy and a pool is also available. More information under redeq@cableonda.net Elvira Quintero.
