I had booked a 3-day, 4-person tour with Kevin for my wife, father-in-law, sister-in law and her friend. Due to an unfortunate issue, my father-in-law and wife were unable to make the trip. Kevin was extremely understanding and willing to work with us (though I don't think he was obligated to return our deposit, he did without hesitation). We were... More

I did the city tour & the next day the Indian Village/monkey... More

Kevin with Barefoot Panama has a wealth of knowledge about Panama, and the surrounding areas. My boyfriend and I choose the city tour and monkey island tour which were both really amazing! Kevin is both very knowledgeable and personable. He was able to recommend restaurants, sites, and beaches that we otherwise would not have known. I would highly recommended Kevin... More

We were two families traveling with three small kids under the age of 3 for almost a week. As parents, we like adventure, but we were restricted with our kids. Kevin created the perfect itinerary for us, beautiful places to stay, some short adventures with our kids and some adventure options without kids. He took care of everything and covered... More

He was helpful with planning our tours to see the most of Panama possible in the 3 short days we had in Panama City.... More

Upon contacting Kevin O'Brien, owner/founder of Barefoot Panama, a few months before my trip, he was extremely helpful in assisting me not only with questions about his own tours/booking with him, he also assisted me with getting information/giving me ideas not related to...

I had a wonderful time in Panama..met some new friends. Kevin was very organized and showed us so much of the country. He always got us to the tourist spots early..ahead of other tourists so we could make the most of the day. The activities were awesome, food great! The snorkeling is incredible. Kevin worked very hard to make sure... More

We recommend Barefoot in Panama without hesitation to other Canadians who are visiting Panama. This is the 4th time we have visited Panama and each time Kevin has been an excellent guide and a super resource to us. We first met Kevin on a real estate tour of new developments across Panama in 2009 where he provided logistical support to... More
