Who we are
About us
Panama as we know it – and as we would love to show it to you.
Burba Travels – the soul of Panama
Official local DMC & tour operator in Panama City, with our own transport and guides.
What does “burba” mean?
The word burba comes from the language of the Guna people of the San Blas Islands and means roughly soul or spirit.
In Guna belief, everything has an invisible double – people, animals, rivers, even houses. That double is the burba.
That is what we want to show you: not just the sights of Panama, but its soul – the wildlife of the rainforest, its indigenous communities and the calm of the islands.
Everything arranged, locally
As an official local DMC and tour operator, we arrange everything a trip to Panama needs: transfers, accommodation, guided tours and excursions.
We use our own transport for our tours, and for most of them we pick you up anywhere in Panama City.
The company is run by Attila Keresztes – together with the team, he makes sure your Panama trip is everything you dreamed of.
