Great tour if you're here for a few days.
This was a good tour and Elena our guide, was amazing! She arrived on time and clelarly explained what was expected on the tour while we drove off. She was friendly, courteous and most importantly she was a safe driver and made us feel comfortable. Not once for the entire tour did we feel rushed or forced while doing any of the activities. The tour itself was an ideal way for my wife and I to see a few of the interesting places in Panana City that we probably would not have gotten to see as we were only here for a few days. It was a blend of education and fun. Elena was able to navigate us smoothly though the crowds at the Canal so we could see a ship enter and leave one of the locks. She even shared a little history of Panama as we drove past certain historical points. We truly enjoyed the tour. Highly recommend it.

It was worth ever penny and more
Our guide Ivan was a treasure. He is very knowledgeable, polite, jovial, helpful and the list goes on.
Ivan's knowledge about Panamanian history is pretty impressive and his passion shun right through.
He allowed us to stop and experience the various sights and scenes. We even got to grab a scrumptious dinner by the fish market and met other locals like Alex who added to our lovely experience.
10/10 I certainly recommend.

Best tour EVER!
This was the best tour. Pierre was so informative and he took us to some great places. My wife and I were so happy he was our guide and his English was perfect. Now we have to get on our job and learn Spanish. An amazing time and I definitely would do it again. Ask for Pierre. He’s the best!

Very enjoyable day at the Panama canal, viewing monkeys and boats.
Everything went well. Ricardo, our driver and guide, was friendly and knowledgeable. Importantly, he was a safe driver. Our boat ride was gorgeous. We had a splendid time one the canal--spotted three ships going through. Wildlife wise we encountered three types of monkey and a crocodile.
At the canal lock we saw a ship go through and the IMAX production.
All in all a great day at the canal.

Pablo Salas is the best
We went on a tour with Pablo and honestly, it was amazing from start to finish. He communicated with us the night before, arrived right on time, and made the whole day enjoyable. He took us to all the main attractions around Panama and also took plenty of photos for us throughout the tour.
If you’re looking for a tour guide in Panama City, I would definitely recommend booking with him.

Book the tour!!!
Luis is the best tour guide ever. I would happily go on any tour he is hosting. He is funny and so knowledgeable about the country. While I enjoyed the Panama Canal part, the city tour was the star for me. He took us off the beaten path and showed us the things we really wanted to see. It was almost like a customized event. I am planning to move to Panama next year and he had so many tips for me and really showed me what day to day life looks like in the country. Book the tour!

Easy ride to sight see!
Biking around Casco Viejo was an amazing way to learn the history and see the sites. They provide you with a bike, a bottle of water, and multiple stops for a quick rest and historical conversation. You also get plenty of opportunities for capturing great photographs. Stefan was our tour guide and was very knowledgeable, personable, friendly, and kind. Would highly recommend anyone visiting Panama City to take this bike tour!

We had a great experience...
We had a great experience with our tour guide Jennifer. When we walked out of the airport, Jennifer was there already waiting for she. The minivan was comfortable for the six of us and all our luggage. Jennifer was super knowledgeable and easy to talk to. She’s very flexible to accommodate our needs. We had a great time and would highly recommend this tour and Jennifer as the guide.

The chairs are not very...
The chairs are not very comfortable to sit up on deck and watch the canal. They did have indoor seating at tables, so you didn't have to stay outside the whole time. They served breakfast and lunch but there was not a lot of options. Lunch was a green salad and pasta salad. Then they had a snack late in the day of a mini ham sandwich on a bun, granola bar and banana. When you get off the boat there are no bathrooms on the bus on the ride back to the Pacific side. They had bottles of water and potato chips available for purchase.

Juan is amazing!
Juan made our experience unforgettable. We learned so much and saw the not so traveled path of Panama City as well (such as the administration building). We had a private tour so we were able to spend the time how we wanted. We skipped the movie at the canal to spend more time in Old Town.

This was the highlight of...
This was the highlight of our time in Panama and a must-do for everyone visiting! It was such a special experience riding past the huge boats on the canal, getting to appreciate them from up-close on the water. The interactions with the various animals across the islands were so amazing. The boat ride was quite comfortable and we enjoyed every second. Our guide Aura was very professional and kind, and she made our experience that much better. Take this tour, you won't regret it!

Zip Line Experience
What a great experience we had ziplining. The staff explained everything with great detail and focusing on the safety of all in our group. The staff was friendly and participated in the fun filled experience of the activity. Alejandro picked us up on time and was very knowledgeable and friendly as well! Highly recommend this tour!! Thank you for a wonderful experience!
