If you want to get here from the border of Costa Rica (Sixaola), it’s possible, but takes a long time.
In Panama with your back towards the border go to the right street (pass all the annoying shuttle drivers under the small bridge), where 2 big supermarkets are. Wait at the parking spot.
Catch the bus there to Changuinola and ask for the driver to stop at ‘Uraka’.
This is a small terminal with collectivos to David.
From there it takes around 4,5 hours to get to David and costs around 7 dollars
In David you get dropped off at the main station.
It’s easy from there to find the bus to Boquete, this takes around 1,5 hours.
