Accommodation will be varied throughout your adventure. Some nights on this tour will be multi-share. This may involve 4-6 group members sharing and even (on rare occasions) dormitory-style rooms for the whole group. The majority of accommodation will have shared bathroom facilities.



Where we use multi-share hostels, rooming requests of any kind cannot be taken. For private accommodation please see tours in our Classic Travel Style.



Please note your accommodations while in the San Blas Islands will be very basic and multi-share. Remember, this allows you to experience the authentic nature of the islands while supporting the local indigenous community's efforts in keeping it as undeveloped as possible while still allowing visitors to enjoy the pristine beauty found here.
