Great experience, had such a great time !! Definitely a vibe ! I recommend booking ahead of time and arriving a little early! The drinks were a hit watered down but you’re able to purchase more if wanted and food at each spot.

This was so much fun. Our host was very entertaining and the vibe was really great. Almost booked a second night. Lol. It's a must to do.

THIS WAS THE HIGHLIGHT OF OUR TRIP!!! Visited Panama City with my bestie and the bar crawl was absolutely amazing!! The hosts were so much fun and we had a great time at each venue. Do not skip this when in Panama City!

I had a great time. This was a solo trip and I enjoyed it so much. I felt homey, the people were warm. The only thing was the DJ kept playing the same songs. The DJs should communicate to make the experience great.

Go for it

Mariah_J, Jul 2026
10/10 would recommend. The staff were amazing. But take your own photos. I never got mine from them.

Still the best; you won’t regret

Jada_E, Jul 2026
Be prepared for 4 hours of fun. The DJs did replay songs (unknowingly) at different spots which was a little annoying but this is the perfect way to experience old city nightlife without waiting in line for ages for entrance and drinks. The team is well coordinated and helpful each step of the way. Bring your energy and have the best time.

Fun

Marisa_Y, Jul 2026
Great way to meet people and have a good time! The first stop was the best to me. 507 had the good shots!

Average

Tamaka_D, Jul 2026
There isn't much communication about the itinerary. There are more then one host but no one introduced themselves. You just had to pay attention and follow the familiar faces.

Mixed experience

Melinda_F, Jun 2026
The music was great. The hosts were accommodating. The drinks seemed so weak/ watered down and Im certainly not a big drink. Even for my low tolerance , it seemed like juice. The event is an opportunity to dance and be part of the night life. Marcel, one of the host was wonderful

Disappointed

Erica_S, Jun 2026
The bar crawl wasn’t what I expected and the host seemed unorganized with the check in process. Wish the description would’ve explained you’re only allowed one cocktail with very limited options. After this you could only do shots at other stops or pay extra. Suggestion explaining more details in the description…not waiting until day of purchase to email these details. Other suggestion is to give wristbands as guests check in. We left after the meeting space because my husband doesn’t do shots. I would not recommend this event for anyone over 40.

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.

I believe if you are...

Takeja_C, Jun 2026
I believe if you are going to do this event, do it the first night out. You’ll meet ppl and you can go back to visit the bars you really enjoyed throughout your trip.

Must do

Carlrita_R, May 2026
Og bar crawl was so good, I fully enjoyed it. Definitely i must do whe. Visiting Panamá City. Stuff was amazing.

Club hopping in Panama

Montechia_G, May 2026
The guides were very helpful and engaging. We stayed about an hour at each night club. We would go again

What a time!

Margaret_M, May 2026
If you are looking for a fun night out then this is definitely for you. I travel with my husband and a couple of family members and we had a blast. The guides were so much fun!

Absolutely AMAZING...

Tashae_S, May 2026
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! 🇵🇦✨

Will be doing this again!!!!

Earlisha_W, May 2026
Awesome awesome experience! I would highly recommend this…the host was awesome and made me feel welcome as a solo traveler

Fantastic tour

Tamara_H, May 2026
The tour guides makes the parties very enjoyable and they make sure everyone is with them at each stop and they are very good dancers as well , we truly enjoyed the tour and would highly recommend it

Amazing time, the host...

Kelly_M, May 2026
Amazing time, the host was amazing. Thanks to the host Marcel and the young lady. The vibe was everything and more.

Never again!

cravingshayy, May 2026
This was the only experience in Panama that I did not enjoy. You get a drink at every club but I didn’t even finish the tour. The music was TERRIBLE! I do not see the point of going to 5 locations to hear the exact same songs. 98% of the music was 15+ years old. Every spot repeated the same old songs. It is 2026 no one wants to hear Tupac, biggie, and snoop dog. The vibes wasn’t there at all. It’s like they went on google and typed in “most popular songs everyone knows” and just made a playlist based off of that. I wouldn’t go back even if it was free.

Didn’t work for me

CK_S, May 2026
It was a no show. No correspondence from the organizers and no one was at the meeting point at the meeting time

A must do to see the nightlife!

Gabrielle_J, May 2026
WOW the OG Bar Crawl was SO much fun and definitely one of the highlights of my trip! The hosts were amazing, energetic, welcoming, and made sure everyone felt comfortable the entire night. They kept the energy up, danced with us, and made the whole experience exciting from start to finish. I loved that every club had a different vibe and the music was so good all night. I danced the entire night, met amazing people from all over, and had such a great time. I also got some really great pictures and videos and got to experience Panama nightlife in such a fun way. If you’re visiting Panama and want a fun night out, I would definitely recommend this experience!

Literally the best tour...

Kamesha_J, May 2026
Literally the best tour ever and when the guides found out my trip was a solo trip they made sure to treat me extra special.

My sister and I had so much fun! Definitely a fun way to bar hop and to experience the nightlife! Would definitely do it again

Disappointed travel

Dante_R, Apr 2026
This tour is not for anyone 40 and older. Each venue played the same songs over and over again. For $65 per person to visit empty bars and enjoy cheap drinks. Look elsewhere very disappointed

Not for us but would still recommend!

Jaimee_H, Apr 2026
The experience is nice. We were expecting a more cultural experience. The music and ambiance was mostly catered to one group of people so for those of us who wanted more Caribbean/ Panama style music...it was a bit disappointing.

Lit! 🔥

Quiana_M, Apr 2026
Do it! The staff were friendly, attentive and fun. The DJs were perfect, playing all the hits. Just make sure you’re well rested for this event lol it was fun filled!
