🦅 *Did you know…?*

The Harpy Eagle, Panama’s _national bird_, is one of the most powerful eagles on Earth!

🦅 A fully grown Harpy Eagle can have a wingspan of up to about 2 meters (6.5 feet). While its wings are shorter than those of many large eagles, they’re exceptionally broad, helping it maneuver through dense rainforest canopies with remarkable precision.

*Why it’s so impressive:*
• Its talons can be as large as a grizzly bear’s claws.
• It can lift prey weighing up to its own body weight.
• It lives high in tropical rainforest canopies and is rarely seen in the wild.
• Panama is home to important conservation efforts helping protect this magnificent species.

🌿 join us for our next visit to Summit. Pay the Kiosk directly on the day, bring relevant identification 🆔

Seeing a Harpy Eagle up close is a rare chance to meet one of the rainforest’s true rulers! 👑🦅

🐝🐝 *Another chance!!* 🐝🐝

Ever tasted honey straight from the comb… that you harvested yourself? THIS IS IT!
🍯 This is not a tour.
This is a fully immersive, hands-on workshop style experience where you step into the world of bees — and leave with something you created.

We’re heading outside the city for a one-of-a-kind experience where you’ll:

• Learn about bee farming, from start to finish, it’s simply fascinating
• Extract raw honey directly from the comb 🍯
• Learn how to upcycle bees wax🕯️
• Learn the fascinating process from hive → harvest → home
• Taste pure, unprocessed raw delicious golden honey unlike store bought jars!

And yes — you’ll take home your own jar of honey…
The very one you extracted yourself.

*IMPORTANT:*
We’re working with African bees — powerful and incredible — so for safety, all activities are done at a controlled distance and indoors.

*THE FLOW OF THE DAY*
We leave the city early and head into a slower, more grounded environment — fresh air, nature, and something completely different from your usual weekend.
Midday, we pause for a relaxed community lunch stop, then continue the experience before heading back.
