What are people saying about Panama

KIMBERLY_L, Jul 2026

Great trip and will do it again!

Fun experience! My husband and I took my 78 year old mother-in-law (who doesn't liek boats) on this trip, and she loved it, too! Wear closed shoes in case it rains (which it did our whole trip, but it didn't "dampen" out experience. Our driver's, Enrique and Jose were great and our guide, Jaz, was awesome! He was funny, informative, friendly, and took great care of all of us. We will probably do this tour again in the dry season to get a little different experience. We saw many monkeys (tamarin and white face capuchin). We did see one sloth, high up in a tree. Even the snack they during the bathroom break was good. Highly recommend!!

Gatun Lake: Monkeys & Exotic Wildlife by the Canal

Brian_S, Jul 2026

A Fun and Exciting Tour!

Our land based tour guide Daniel was excellent and provided a bilingual (English & Spanish) narrative during our trip to the boat launch site. On the water, our guide (I didn't catch her name) was the "monkey whisperer" and between her calls, and our captain coaxing the monkeys, we were able to have a real and up-front experience! I'm glad we caught the first tour of the two timeslots so that the monkeys were not yet jaded for the day. Being in the same waterway as the huge container shops was breathtaking. A great experience at a reasonable cost!

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.

Do this if on a long layover in Panama City!

Oscar was so fun and knowledgeable. He saved us so much time by knowing about all the lines and possible delays at the canal. Be listened to us and adjusted the tour accordingly. Super nice guy, and we really enjoyed chatting by with him. I highly recommend this tour if you have a long layover - we were picked up and dropped off at the airport.

Memorable Moments

This tour was one of the highlights of my trip to Panama! Our tour guide, Orlando, was absolutely amazing. He made sure everyone felt safe throughout the hike and waterfall experience while sharing interesting information along the way. The Emberá villagers were incredibly welcoming, kind, and helpful. It was such a privilege to learn about their culture and experience their warm hospitality. Visiting a waterfall has always been a dream of mine, and this was my very first time. Standing beneath the falls and taking in the beauty of nature was an unforgettable experience that will stay in my heart forever. A huge thank you to Orlando for making this day so special. If you're visiting Panama, I highly recommend this tour it's an experience you'll never forget!

All Inclusive Taboga Island Catamaran Tour from Panama City

Monika_G, Jul 2026

Perfect Day Trip to Taboga - Especially for Solo Travelers!

Amazing tour and perfect for solo travelers! The team was fantastic - friendly, communicative, and gave clear instructions throughout the day. The catamaran was super clean, and I loved relaxing in the sun on the nets with the open bar. You get plenty of time to explore Taboga Island and still have time to relax and enjoy the boat. The piña coladas served in an actual pineapple with free refills were definitely a highlight! 🍍🍹 Such a fun experience, and you’re back with plenty of the day left. Definitely recommend!

Panama Canal & City Tour in Half Day: Old Town & City Views

Bertrand_S, Jul 2026

Amazing rich experience! 6 stars!

Being a solo traveller, I booked this tour before coming to Panama but was not sure what to expect. In the end it was well above my expectations. The team contacted me on WhatsApp the night before to confirm all the logistics and got picked up on the day at 7:20 right on time by Enrique (driver) and Jorge (the guide). Jumped in the van and went straight to the administration building of Panama Canal. Jorge was giving me lots of Panamean history (he is super knowledgeable). Then we went to the can visitor centre. Arrived early to beat the queue and we're lucky enough to see a boat passing the lock. Then saw the 8:45 Imax movie about the canal construction (amazing) and then we went to a very relaxing area of Panama city with a noce Marina, amazing views of the city and the famous Panama sign. Finally ended up with a walk in the old town and finished by 12:00. It was smooth, nice, well organized and I got so much from Jorge. It really felt like a valuable things to do for a half day in the city. Highly recommend. Super high value. Huge thanks to Enrique and Jorge for the great experience!

Slingshot Tour Panama

Flomenthia_L, Jul 2026

Wonderful Ride in Panama

It's a fun way to see some spectacular sights and meet new people. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and lead the way to keep us safe while on the tour. I believe this to be a family owned business and Everyone was genuinely friendly. The bbq chicken wings were awesome. They make and serve drinks as well (but not to the driver until they return).

Day Tour in San Blas Islands All Included Visiting 4 Islands

San Blas: Worth the 4 A.M. Wake-Up Call!

San Blas was the highlight of our trip to Panama! From the early 5:00 a.m. pickup in Panama City to the breathtaking drive through the mountains and lush jungle, the adventure began the moment we left the city. My wife and I had an amazing time exploring all four islands, with the Natural Pool being our favorite stop. The delicious hot lunch and refreshing Balboa beer made the experience even better. One of the most memorable parts of the tour was learning about the indigenous Guna people and gaining insight into their rich culture and traditions. If you're planning a trip to Panama, a visit to San Blas is an absolute must. Viator made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Their customer support team was easy to reach and very helpful whenever we had questions or needed assistance. Highly recommended!

My wife and I had a great...

My wife and I had a great time. The experience allowed us to explore a different side of Panama City and connect with new people. The clubs were nice, but we were surprised by the music selection. We expected to hear more local music, yet much of what was played was hip-hop and rap from Atlanta and New York. Still, we enjoyed visiting five different spots and had a wonderful experience overall.
