Locals call Panama "Center of the World, Heart of the Universe", and it's not ego-related, it's due to its historical and strategic location for global travel and commerce. We will take you through the centuries, from the time when the Spanish used Panama as a trading hub to the present. You will see the beautifully restored and preserved World Heritage site known as "Casco Antiguo", the historic old quarter, and early twentieth century engineering marvels: The Panama Canal and the Amador Causeway. And of course, if and when you get hungry during the day, we'll take you to the restaurant of your choice (and trust us, the variety is huge).

What are people saying about Panama

Tour to a waterfall and Embera village with lunch included

Judy_S, Jun 2026

Embera and waterfall - wonderful

A fantastic experience. Swimming in the waterfall, traveling up River and ending in wonderful Embera Village was so awesome. The natives we’re so kind! Loved their dances and how they explained their culture. The kids we’re so cute! Our guide was awesome! Will definitely do it again!

Colon City tour: Exploring Caribbean roots, food and Afro culture

veronica_m, Jun 2026

Colon City Tour - Excellent!

My group took the Colon City tour with driver Jose and guide Roderick. Roderick is a proudly born and raised Colon citizen, and aside from showing us the sights of the city, included the rich history of the area. Jose and Roderick were both fun and interesting to talk to. If you want to experience a different piece of Panama, be sure to take this tour!

Panama Canal with entrance included and Gatun Lake Boat Tour

Arp_M, Jun 2026

On-time pickup. Ended up...

On-time pickup. Ended up being private tour since my husand and I were the only ones. Lake Gatun boat ride was so nice- crazy to see such large ships up close headed to the locks. Pulling up to the mangroves was so cool- saw howler, capucin and tamarin monkeys. Even saw a crocodile- yikes! Then headed to Panama canal to watch the Imax movie (very informative) and actually see a couple of ships pass the Mira Flores locks. Our guide was very informative. (museum was closed for renovation)

The tour guide Edwin was the best tour guide I ever experienced. He provided both English and Spanish throughout the entire experience, he was always positive, upbeat. Every detail was exciting to hear about in the way he articulated details. An absolute pleasure the entire tour. Best ever tour guide!!!

Half day of Panama city and canal tour: shared and private

Joseph_L, Apr 2026

Good overview of the canal and Casco with Dimos

Good overview of the canal and Casco with Dimos. After the canal visit and IMAX, most of the time was spent in the van (with A/C) driving over the Bridge of the Americas, Amador Causeway, and then around Casco Viejo with a few stops for souvenirs and snacks. Especially if staying in Casco, it’s a good way to start a visit to learn the canal history and function and then get a feel for the area.

City Tour guiado en Panamá con Canal y Casco Antiguo

JoAnna_L, Apr 2026

Definitely Go. Guide Eduardo is fantastic!

It was great. Our guide, Eduardo, was excellent. Spoke fluent English and Spanish and gave info in both. Knew about history and areas, answered all questions, made us feel safe, was patient, gave tips on other things to do and places to go and how to get there without being a salesman. Just helpful. Super nice young man. Lots of smiles and laughs while seeing and learning about Panama. On request they also picked us up from Playa Bonita at our resort. Only a little bit extra and did not ask for anything more. Our driver, whose name I am sorry to say I forgot, was amazing. Quiet and focussed on the road which was great cuz the roads are super busy with everyone going every which way. He did it expertly and fast. I would highly recommend booking with them. Also, if you want to be dropped off at a spot along the way and go from there on your own - that’s ok too. Some people on the bus did that. Ooh - DO see the movie at Mileflores lock. May sound boring but it wasn’t at all. Thanks again. JO & Pat from BC

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.

Private Tour Layover in Panama

Wanda_L, Mar 2026

This tour is an excellent...

This tour is an excellent way to spend a long layover in Panama City or to even plan a long layover to experience. My tour guide, Javier, was extremely professional, knowledgeable and kind. As a solo female traveler, safety is always top of mind, and I felt very safe the entire tour. I would highly recommend this service to anyone.

Day Tour at Panama Canal from Ocean to Ocean

Theresa_R, Feb 2026

Full day tour of the Panama Canal from Atlantic to Pacific

Very informative tour of Panama Canal from Pacific to Atlantic. We got to see the impressive lock system and ships passing through the various parts of the canal. We also did a boat tour in the canal and Lake Gatun. We saw various monkeys, sloths and native species

Discover Panama: History of the City and the Canal

Maureen_F, Feb 2026

Perfect half day adventure

Our tour with Dennis was wonderful. He took us to the old old town San Felipe first. He took us through the museum there. And then we explored a bit on our own including climbing up the tower. Dennis deftly navigated traffic and timed our visit to the MiraFlora locks in time for the film and to see a ship pass through. You do have to climb some stairs to get on the bleachers to see the locks. And squeeze in if it is a busy time. After we made our way to the Amador causeway. Dennis is self-taught in English and it's just amazing how well he speaks it. We thoroughly enjoyed our conversation and our day with Dennis. We highly recommend his company.
