It sounds like you`re looking for Boquete, Panama`s most quaint ecotourist destination. It`s only about 30 from David. So, if you fly into Panama City, you can either drive to Boquete (about 5 or 6 hours) or fly into David (an hour flight from Panama City). What`s great about Boquete is its location: it`s in a valley surrounded by sheer mountains inhabited by the local Ngobe Bugles, an indigenous tribe or Guaymies. Guaymi arts and crafts abound in Boquete. Locals are increasingly becoming involved with tourism, and it`s easy to organize a hike to the Baru Volcano, a river rafting adventure or a bird watching expedition in search of the elusive Quetzal - there`s more than 40 species of quetzals reported around Boquete.
