Fascinating one on one tour of the PC!
Dennis is an amazing historian! We loved him so much we sought additional private tours with him during our vacation. For anyone wanting a one on one tutorial of what you won’t learn in the history books about the Panama Canal, this is the tour you want to take!!!

Jamie and Richard’s Tour
Our tour guide was friendly and quite knowledgeable about Colombian history and the Panama Canal. He was engaging and willing to answer any questions. It was exciting to watch a cargo ship being lowered . The IMAX show was alright; narrated by Morgan Freeman. The capacity of the viewing area was too small for the amount of people there. It was worth the traffic.

Wonderful
The private tour is worth it! The tour operator and guide are incredibly nice and accommodating with all of our travel/logistical changes. Food was the best we had during our entire time in Panama. Enrique was a great guide and spent time to share the history and stories of the Panama Canal. Also, seeing all of the various animals was incredible.

A good experience
It was a private tour with my host Juan.We started at the Panama Canal.Juam had a aura that immediately makes you feel safe and that was important to me since I was a solo traveler.He was knowledgeable about the canal and historical sights.
More stops and photo opportunities would make the tour A+
Overall it was a good tour.

Great Guide. Great Tour!
Raul was 1st class. He was on time. Car was clean. He made us feel welcome. He was very knowledgeable and kind.. He was really chill per my teenager. He is well respected in the guide community. I saw this 1st hand when several other guides came to greet him. He has the gift of turning a tour into more of an experience. It's like a good friend or family member who is passionate about history is showing you around town. Would definitely recommend Raul and tour.

Satisfied bucket list
High value excursion. Friendly crew. Knowledgeable bilingual (English/Spanish) guide. Clean and comfortable boat. Good food and plentiful refreshments.
Actually being in the locks - with a big tanker - watching as we rose up - was an experience of a lifetime. A bucket list item.

Best rainforest trip
Was picked up promptly at our hotel the charge was included, and our ticket price knowledgeable staff was kind and considerate looked out for our safety and our well-being would definitely do it again. Our guides name was Daniel very knowledgeable about the rainforest. Excellent explanation about everything. Even before arriving to the rainforest, our driver notice a sloth in the tree and they pulled over so we could take pictures.

The Monkey Islands are a...
The Monkey Islands are a must-see when visiting Panama City and the canal. Unlike other boat tours, our guides focused on conservation and the animals' health and safety, which I appreciated. I learned a ton about the local wildlife!

Excellent toour
Excellent tour. We passed through two locks, the Pedro Miguel and Miraflores. The experience was unforgetable. The boat was well kept and spacious and the crew was professional. Our tour guide, Vincent, was exceptional. Highly recommended.

One for the bucket list!
If you choose one thing to do to experience and learn about the Panama Canal, this is your tour! We learned so much from Patrick, the tour narrator, during this canal excursion. You won’t be disappointed If you want to see how the canal really functions. The lunch they provided was good as well!
