Panama: the 100th anniversary of the canal

Travel Destination: Panama 

     The 100th anniversary of the Panama Canal is not, in itself, one of the main reasons to visit the country in 2014 but the events surrounding the big day and the other attractions of the country are indeed.

"August 2014 marks 100 years since completion of the Panama Canal, and is likely to attract more attention to the destination," says Mary Moses, CEO at PEAK South America.

"Panama has much more to offer tourists than just the channel: volcanoes, jungles, coffee plantations and beautiful beaches on the shores of the Atlantic and the Pacific."
Peregrine Adventures offers a 10-day trek called by $ 2.171 (28,100 pesos) per person (flight).
