Boquete ratings & reviews
What our students said about Boquete
This is the second time I've been there. Over the past 7 years, the city has improved enormously, but the sidewalks and stray dogs scare me.
5.0Yves Canada
Great as a starting point for hikes, but without a car it is rather difficult. Many US pensioners live here.
