Sharon told us everything we could possibly want to know about the Panama Canal. She gave us a most comprehensive tour of the area in both sides of the Canal.
our tour guide Nora was the best she gave us the insight of Panama Best scenery, highly recommended and boo k your self with her
If you get with Sharon, she is extremely informative and knows the history of Panama the city and the Canal very well. She took her time explaining different stops and different locations and even let me get out and take photos.
Panama canal experience was something unique and different. It was excellent. The guide explained everything extremely well.
Simply wonderful tour!! Our tour guide Sharon was amazing!! Very knowledgeable, friendly and professional! Would highly recommend her to anyone!!
Sharon was a great tour guide. Sadly, we had a little bit of a rainy afternoon, but we made the most of it. She was super accommodating and excellent at driving in the downpour. We rearranged the schedule a little bit to work around the rain and still had a great time. Highly recommend this tour; was not too long and gave me a brief but important understanding of the canal.
Sharon is the best! Extremely knowledgeable, kind and easy going. We learnt a lot of interesting facts on the trip and the canal is extremely fascinating. Clean and comfortable transport and yummy snacks. Highly recommend this experience!
Sharon the tour guide was Amazing. Definitely recommend her. She was polite and very knowledgeable about the city and the Canal .
Sharon is a knowledgeable and easygoing guide who knows her hometown exceptionally well. Her tour to several must-see spots in Panama City is accompanied by interesting and relevant information. She navigated us expertly through a very busy afternoon at the Miraflores Locks and got us back to our hotels in plenty of time to enjoy dinner commitments. I would highly recommend Sharon to anyone looking for an informative and engaging tour of Panama City highlights and the Panama Canal.
Sharon is amazing and gave the best tour of the Panama Canal. Don’t waste your money on large tour busses when you can have a private and knowledgeable guide like Sharon show you around.
The “miracle” of watching a humongous c ship from the Pacic Ocean being lifted up about 100 feet as it moved through the channel into the Atlantic Ocean
Great excursion, loved learning a little bit about the history and watching the ships traverse the canal.
Sharon was a great guide!! She spoke English and Spanish. Great communication, history of Panamá city and canal, and enjoyed her company while we were getting around town and various locations
导游非常好，车内环境优美，准备了小零食和水，对路线安排也很清晰。最后结束trip也送我到了我一直想去的餐厅门口，非常好的一次体验
The tour guide was very good, the environment inside the car was beautiful, snacks and water were prepared, and the route arrangement was also very clear. At the end of the trip, he also took me to the door of the restaurant I had always wanted to go to. It was a very good experience
This tour was an excellent way to see hidden gems along the city and an intimate understanding of the canal and its impact on the world. ask for Sharon!!!!
Canal tour was amazing and so informative.
Watching the tankers go through the locks was impressive.
An excellent, friendly and informative introduction to Panama City and the Canal. A well worthwhile half day experience.
Come prepared to learn the history of the Panama Canal. Ask for Sharon! She was knowledgeable, took us to all the sights, took pictures of our family and answered all our questions about the canal. Loved that she was able to get us to the viewing deck just in time to see three ships going through.
The tour guide was experienced with handling a large group and was very knowledgable. She and her assistant gave us little gift bags, which the group greatly appreciated.
I would like to thanks Sharon, the accurate guide tour professional who took us to visit the Panama Canal. There was an amazing afternoon plenty of information. I highly recomend the tour.
Sharon made our experience unforgettable. She’s is friendly and knows her history. She’s passionate and loves what she does which makes the experience even better. I would definitely recommend everybody to book with her.
Must see when in Panama City! Tour guide was very knowledgeable about the history of both Panama and the canal.
Sharon, our guide was wonderful! Not only was she knowledgeable, she was sweet and accommodating. Because it was raining she had umbrellas and rain ponchos for us, and for the Imax movie experience, she had snack bags and bottled water. It was like traveling with a good friend.
The canal tour was spectacular. We got to see huge ships go through the locks process and learned alot at the Imax movie, as well. You can't leave Panama without going on this tour.
Loved learning about the history of the canal. My tour was a small group of 3, so it wasn't too crowded. Great tour
Sharon was a wonderful tour guide. She was very friendly, informative and great with our kids (ages 5, 9 and 11). Her extensive knowledge made the canal experience really amazing!
Sharon was an amazing tour guide! Well informed and very kind. We learned so much about both the canal and Panamanian history. Would definitely use her again! She was awesome!
Sharon our tour guide was the best ! Intelligent, informative, patient and a great sport ! Definitely value for your money !
Tour guide was amazing! Friendly and super patient. Stop for us to get lunch even though it was not on the agenda
This tour was the highlight of my trip. She was so informed about the canal. We had a flat tire at the first stop but it didn't slow us down at all. I was absolutely amazed at her professionalism, and how prepared she was. As a solo traveler, she offered to take pictures for me, and made me feel super comfortable asking questions. She adapted to events that were going on as well. I cannot recommend this tour enough!
Very interesting. A guide familiar with the subject and very attentive to her clients (we were only 2 women and of a certain age...)
