We really loved Costa Rica and are thinking Panama could be just as enjoyable but slightly more rustic

Briefly visited. IMO not at all the same kind of country as Costa rica... Panama city, super modern, etc... the canal. The jungle. IMO Costa rica is an amazing destination in terms of its diversity, beaches, cloud forest, animal stuff, friendly people...Hard to replicate above or below. Panama struck me as a more of a one trick pony, but I could be completely off as I did not stay as long... I hear good thing about colombia too, Cartagena in particular. Isn't august rainy season there ?
