 If you're staying at the hotel (some people just come for the day), take advantage of the free bike rental and explore on your own. We visited the resort's orchid sanctuary, butterfly sanctuary, serpent house, aquarium, and mock Embera Indian village on our own. And though we didn't ride the aerial tram, we had a very nice conversation with one of the employees who spoke to us about the local flora and fauna. Also, if you're physically able, take the bikes for a few mile ride out to Pipeline Road for magnificent bird and monkey viewing. - 24-Mar-2008 |
