What are people saying about Panama City

Jennifer_l, Sept 2026

Monkeying around

Bring bug spray and be prepared to get wet on the boat ride. The boat ride can get bumpy just fyi. Overall a fun experience. We got to see three types of monkeys. The sloth was a little hard to find, but we saw it in the distance. We went during rainy season so we had to wear ponchos.

Memorable experience 10/10

A beautiful experience. Out tour guide Daniel was 10/10. Extremely informative, kind, and made the experience memorable. Our monkey whisperer Juliette also did an amazing job attracting the monkeys so we can see them. Driver Brian did a safe job getting us back and forth to our location. I would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Panama to take this tour

Book it!!!

Make sure you have some...

Make sure you have some good water shoes with grip. It’s very slippery getting to the waterfall. But worth it. Our guide, Clement, was really great he speaks English, Spanish, and French. Our driver Jorge was amazing. And we had a great group. Everybody was really helpful through the slippery parts. Amazing culture and good food. Love the dances. And make sure to get your traditional tattoo

A Great Way to Experience Panama City ❤️🇵🇦

I had such a great experience on this tour! Everything was well organized from the hotel pickup to the different stops throughout the day. I really enjoyed visiting the Panama Canal, but Casco Viejo was definitely my favorite part. It was beautiful and had so much character and history. The tour was a great way to see different parts of Panama City, especially as someone traveling alone. I felt comfortable throughout the experience and I’m really glad I booked it. Gabriel was our guide and he was really nice, helpful and very informative, which made the experience even more enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this tour! ❤️🇵🇦

This was a great experience and fun to walk around the city and learn so much from Alex. It helped me become even more familiar with the area as I was staying in this area.

Tour guide Jorge, the best!

We had an incredible day exploring the city and Miraflores lock with our tour guide Jorge. From the very start, he was warm, punctual, and incredibly knowledgeable. Instead of just reciting dry historical facts, he brought the local culture to life with fascinating stories, personal insights, and great humor. He also customized the pace to suit our small group, making sure everyone felt comfortable and engaged. If you are looking for an unforgettable experience, do not hesitate to book a tour with them!

This tour was great,...

This tour was great, Gabriel was on time for our hotel pickup and communicated with us the night before to ensure that our tour was off to a smooth start. Gabriel was informative, giving us interesting information about the history of Panama and many of the landmarks we passed. He was patient with our group and allowed us to tour on a flexible schedule that suited our pace and liking. Our group had a small child, young adult males, and older adults, who all found a part of the tour that was interesting and enjoyable for them. Overall, it was a great choice for our visit to Panama and we would definitely recommend this experience to other travelers.

All Inclusive Taboga Island Catamaran Tour from Panama City

Jackie_C, Aug 2026

Great time!

What a great time! My husband and I try to do a catamaran tour whereever we go and we really enjoyed this. The boat itself was IMMACULATE and so clean, even in the bathrooms. The staff was so friendly, and always ready to give you a hand (literally) to help you move around on the boat if needed. On our way back, it rained and the crew offered trash bags for our things to keep them from getting wet- no catamaran tour we have been on before ever offered this. The boat does have covers in front and on sides so if it rains, you do have protection and do not have to be out in the rain. Many of the folks on the tour just chose to stay out in the rain anyway and some of the crew stayed out in the rain also to watch out for everyone. Bartenders were great, plenty of music and dancing. Just a tip about Taboga Island itself-take cash, vs assuming you can use a credit card. We are from US and they took US dollars, but the island itself is pretty primitive. We ate at a great two story hut on the beach. Ceviche was so good. Overall highly reccommend this tour!

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!

Slingshot Tour Panama

Terrell_F, June 2026

Awesome evening slingshot!!!

This tour was absolutely amazing!!! Everyone on the street was getting a good look at us cruising around the streets in our all black slingshot! And loved that it had Bluetooth to connect my phone so I can play my music loud! My tour guides were great and accommodating wish it was longer than a hour and a half and to me the stops to get photos taken was unnecessary but I understood it was a part of the package so it was an added bonus. But overall great great great. Would definitely recommend. Also, best days would be 5pm on a Friday, Saturday, or Sunday when a lot of people are outside!

OG Crawl Afro Vibes Nightlife Experience

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! 🇵🇦✨
