UnCruise Adventures Announces the Return of Their 14-Night Costa Rica & Panama Ultimate Adventure Itinerary

SEATTLE--(BUSINESS WIRE)--UnCruise Adventures, the leader in small‑ship adventure cruising, announces the return of its 14‑night Costa Rica & Panama Ultimate Adventure, sailing September–December 2027 and 2028, aboard the 66‑guest Safari Voyager. This immersive two-week voyage takes travelers into the heart of two of the world’s most biodiverse regions, combining rainforest exploration, cultural encounters, remote island discovery, and a once‑in‑a‑lifetime Panama Canal transit.

Stretching between the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea, Costa Rica and Panama offer a rare blend of lush ecosystems, vibrant wildlife, and rich cultural heritage. Guests will hike through jungles alive with macaws, hummingbirds, and monkeys; snorkel among colorful coral reefs; paddle through mangrove lined fjords; and explore secluded islands accessible only by small ship. Highlights include a full 48‑mile Panama Canal crossing, wildlife‑rich hikes near Santa Rosa, Curú Wildlife Refuge, and the Osa Peninsula, snorkeling in UNESCO‑designated Coiba National Park, two days in the Guna Yala (San Blas) Islands meeting the Kuna people, a rare exploration of the Darien Gap with time in an Emberá community, and a visit to historic Portobelo with its centuries‑old Spanish fort ruins.

“These regions are alive with a kind of wild magic you can’t find anywhere else,” said Captain Dan Blanchard, Owner and CEO of UnCruise Adventures. “With this itinerary, we’re giving our guests the chance to experience adventure in its purest form—authentic, immersive, and deeply human.”

Crafted for travelers seeking more than a traditional vacation, the Costa Rica & Panama Ultimate Adventure offers expert guides, flexible daily activities, and access to protected parks and hidden coves. Guests can choose their activities and pace each day.
