What Our Guests Say About Our Tours...
We loved our kayak adventure with David and his team! They made the experience even more fun than expected. They provided snacks and drinks throughout our journey and made each stop exciting. They were patient and helpful as we learned to kayak and provided advice on what to do if we wanted to kayak in the future. A great experience overall for humans and dogs alike!
Richard M

We had a wonderful time on our full moon tour! As first-time kayakers, the tour guides helped us all along the way and were kind even when our pup got a little too excited. Our pup had so much fun meeting everyone and getting out on the river and swimming for his first time ever. He was exhausted after we got back home and was still worn out the next day because of all the fun! I definitely recommend this tour for anyone, experienced kayaker or not, especially if you have an adventurous dog, although you could go on the tour without a dog and play with everyone else’s! If you have the chance, go on this wonderful tour!

I took my dog Rogue on the Howl at the Moon Tour and it was an awesome experience. The water is so calm at night and you really feel in tune with nature on this tour. It was a great way for me to get my dog to get comfortable being around water. In the beginning she had no interest in water and by the end of the night she was jumping on to some of the tour guides stand up paddle boards. The guides are nice and friendly and it really is a bang for your buck for what you get in return. I highly recommend

Happy Tails Tours is amazing. My pup and I had an awesome time hiking and doing wine tastings at various wineries. Not having to plan things myself and being able to bring my pup with was fantastic. An amazing company with phenomenal people at the helm. I'd recommend them to anyone!
Ellie

We were honored to be a part of David and Claudia’s inaugural trip! We went for a great hike on Pilot Mountain, and then visited wineries in Yadkin Valley that were not just dog-friendly, but dog-enthusiastic! Happy Tails arranged it all! All we had to do was show up, and have fun with our pup and great people.
Though it was our first time meeting David and Claudia, we left feeling like we knew them. They are amazingly genuine, hospitable, warm people that made us feel like we were on a trip with old friends. I feel compelled to note that my husband and I are both vegan, and David and Claudia went out of their way to make sure we had veggie subs and homemade sautéed tofu and tempeh-which was delicious! So accommodating and thoughtful!
You will not regret embarking on an adventure with Happy Tails, and we look forward to our next!

What’s better than a hike, a wine tour and awesome tour guides? Getting to spend the beautiful day with your doggie!! I can’t say enough about how great our trip was with Happy Tails. David and Claudia were so accommodating and made the day so enjoyable, I can’t wait to take another trip with them.

I had a great time in panama thanks to you. I must say I have never had such a great, fun & caring tour guide in my life. Please keep my email address so you can write when you are up & running. Good luck on your move and be safe. Thanks again for the memories of Panama

Best Tour Ever!
David is a great guide. What we noticed about David that sets him apart is his desire to make each guest happy. There was a couple who loved birds so he made sure to point out the birds and even made a special stop on the side of the road to show us a Tucan. He has a great personality and is very comfortable to be around.
Out of the many tours we have taken this is by far the best yet! If you are looking for the “normal” tourist attraction this tour is not for you. This tour takes you to the village of the Emberas where you will not only meet the people of the village and interact with them but will glance into their way of life. We found them to be a very gentle, kind people. David is a great guide. What we noticed about David that sets him apart from many other guides is his desire to make each guest happy. There was a couple who loved birds so he made sure to point out the birds and even made a special stop on the side of the road to show us a Tucan.

“Like survivor only better!”
When my wife and I left the San Blas Islands, we felt like we had just been transported back from some place you only see on TV or read about in books. We have traveled quite a bit around the world, but had never been on a trip quite like this. David with Adventure Tours Panama took us to a remote island, not much bigger than a soccer field with crisp white sand, palm trees, turquoise waters…. What more could you want? We lounged on hammocks, snorkeled, lounged some more. Even caught some of our our food from the ocean! It was like being on survivor only no camera crews to disrupt our peace and we were comfortable and well taken care of. After leaving the islands, we wanted more and headed to Panama City with David for a city tour. Once again, we were well taken care as David showed us the Panama Canal and all the cities major sites, including a bunch of obscure and less well know gems. All in all, this is up there as one of my top travel trips I have ever taken and I know that if we had tried to do this on our own, we would have missed out on the opportunities that David at Adventure Tours Panama had given us. David provides professional, top notch tours tailored to his clients individual interests. His in depth knowledge of areas and relationships with community members makes for a tour that leaves you feeling like part of a family. If you are looking for an off the beaten path adventure that you will not forget, David is your guide!
