The ruins of El Castillo de San Lorenzo and those of Portobelo, once formed the strategic points of defenses of San Lorenzo at the Mouth of the Chagres River and the two fortifications of Portobelo. Narrate silently and vividly the prosperity of Panama in that era. The now World Heritage sites (UNESCO) built to assure a safe transfer of gold and silver from one city to another and ocean to ocean, were attacked countless time and witnessed the bloody wars of the Caribbean against the Spaniards by the buccaneers, mercenaries, corsairs, privateers and pirates. It is worth mentioning the courage and contribution of the enslaved persons, the Cimarrons and how they brought freedom to their fellowmen and how they shaped the future and culture for many generations.

Excellent journey through an old-town of Panama City

Alex, as our tour guide, shared a wealth of history with our group. His deep dive stories about Casco Viejo past enabled listeners to appreciate the various architectural buildings (churches, town houses and government Bldgs.) located in this area.

Last Minute Saturday Excursion with Coworkers

With a weekend in between the work weeks on our international trip a group of 7 (3 women & 4 men) we were eager to get in the water. This tour delivered. Clear communication in both Spanish & English. Chill vibes fostered by the phenomenal crew. We were at ease all day. We followed a schedule but they planned it well to where you were ready for the next step each time. Weather conditions were great and when the storm approached Taboga just as we had already planned to head back. Captain Rico navigated around the perimeter for a smooth sail back to port. The food was the only thing not 10/10 but that’s not what we came for. As always, be wary of other groups aboard as some relations seemed potentially connected to the crew (seemed like 2 girls may have been invited to bring the energy up) but that’s just an assumption. I got stung by a jelly in the finals moments in the water & Miguel was prepared with ointment. The crew had a high regard for safety throughout the trip.

Tour to a waterfall and Embera village with lunch included

Thomica_F, Aug 2026

Don’t Skip this Tour if You’re in Panama!

Alcibiades, his team and the beautiful people of Embera Island made this a magical experience. PLEASE REMEMBER TO WEAR WELLMADE WATER SHOES. It hurt my heart to see people especially children hiking in flip flops. It was a labor intensive walk BUT the reward was immeasurable. I would describe it as magical. The tour was informative and made me appreciate the lush land and beauty of the people beyond the aesthetic. Our guide was with us every step of the way and captured memories for my family that will last a lifetime. I’m looking forward to going every time I come to Panama.

Ciara was an excellent and informative guide who provided a great introduction to Panama. The early start is worth it as you get a front row view of the ships in the canal. The guided walk in the old town is also a great way to feel more confident about exploring this part of the city.

The staff had great positive energy. Everything went smoothly from check-in to the end. Good music, drinks, dancing, ocean swimming, we enjoyed it all! For those who aren't strong swimmers, there were life jackets and pool noodles available. There was also a staff member who acted as lifeguard and was very attentive. I was with a group of 6 and we had a great time. Definitely recommend.

Panama Canal and City Tour Experience

Ebony_B, Jul 2026

Excellent Tour

This tour was very informative. We learned so much about the history of Panama. Carlos Suedoa was our tour guide, and he took us to the best gift shops for souvenirs. As part of our tour, we visited the Panama Canal and watched a ship pass in the lock. There was a lot of walking so be prepared, wear comfortable shoes, sunglasses and a hat! Carlos was very knowledgeable and he took time to give us information about the history of Panama and how it relates to the current state and future of Panama! The tour was excellent and I would recommend this for first time visitors as well as anyone who wants to learn about the country and history of Panama.

It was a truly magical experience! At first, I was worried because I thought the rain was going to ruin the trip, but fortunately the weather got much better just in time. The staff was so friendly, welcoming, and attentive. I absolutely loved their choreography! 😊 It was my girlfriend's birthday, and they went above and beyond to help me make her day extra special.

Tashae_S, May 2026

Absolutely AMAZING...

Absolutely AMAZING experience with the OG Bar Crawl in Panama! 🔥🍹 From start to finish, the energy was unmatched and the tour guides truly brought the vibe. They kept the group engaged, hyped, and made the entire night feel fun, safe, and unforgettable. A few tips for anyone planning to go: • Wear comfortable shoes — you’ll definitely be moving around a lot. • Eat beforehand or at the first stop, because most of the other bars didn’t have food available. Overall, such a well-organized and lively experience. Perfect way to explore the nightlife and meet great people while visiting Panama. Highly recommend! 🇵🇦✨

Panama Canal Full Transit Tour

Stellamarie_R, Mar 2026

Must Do if visiting Panamá

Great learning experience about the Canal of Panama. The tour guide (José) was very knowledgeable and gave the information in Spanish and English. He also answered all questions asked. The scenary is really pretty, especially if sitting on the right side of the ship. Things to consider, use a good sunscreen and reapply as the sun can be brutal. A hand fan can be beneficial if staying at the top floor of the ship. Otherwise, the view can be appreciated on the 1st and 2nd floor with AC. If you have food limitations, reach out beforehand or bring your own snacks as the menu is set and might not accomodate any dietary restrictions.
