I would highly recommend this service if you need a driver in Panama. The rates are unbeatable, the driver is punctual and very friendly. My driver was Javier and he arrived a good 5-10 minutes before the allocated pick up time and he knew the back roads very well and avoided me being stuck in traffic. Will definitely be using this company again when I visit Panama and will be recommending them to anyone else.

They overcharged us at the last minute
There was confusion about destination
Then they told us it was 2 hour ride and would be 100 more
Response from Host, Mar 2026
Thank you for your feedback.
The service booked was a 2-hour private driver service, which is specifically designed for transportation within Panama City. This is clearly stated in the service description.
The requested destination, Colón Cruise Port, is outside the city limits and requires a different service. The appropriate option is the “Transfer to Colón Cruise Port,” where pricing for that route is clearly indicated.
The additional charge was applied to cover the correct service based on the actual destination.
We encourage customers to review service details carefully to avoid confusion.
Thank you.

Helpful and friendly driver took us to the canal and shared a lot of info. We also sang songs in the car to the radio!
Response from Host, Feb 2026
Thank you for your review! We’re so happy you had a great time—our driver will love hearing this. 😊 We’re glad you enjoyed the Panama Canal visit and all the local info along the way, and singing to the radio sounds like the perfect ride vibe. Thanks for choosing us!

I can highly recommend Lift Panama. Booking with very short notice was not a problem for them, and our driver Jose was a consummate professional.

I would never ever book with this company I was on the phone with them gave exact pick up location told them what I wanted to do exact drop off location exact times
I was on a cruise.
I turned my phone on the day I got to Panama they told me they could not pick me up in my designated area. I had to take a taxi for an hour and a half to be picked up When I called. The guy said oh for $100 we could pick you up. I said OK do that I went on the app to double check. They canceled my car. when I called They said oh because you didn’t reply to the email. I said I did reply to the email. Their reasoning was they could not pick me up where I requested. They had a week to tell me that not the day before I was to get there. I had to turn my phone on to make international calls and now I do not have a car in Panama.

The private car service is for locations within the city limits, as stated in the service description. Please read before booking. We cannot travel from one province to another to bring you to the city and then return you.
In the email you sent, you stated that you didn't agree, so we canceled and refunded your money in full.
Thanks

We hired a driver, Javier, to take us to the Gamboa Tree Trek zip line and the sloth sanctuary from downtown. He arrived on time and was very accommodating. I was considering renting a car myself and driving. So glad I did not.

Thank you for everything, my friend

The terminal is really torn up for construction but our driver Alex kept in great contact with us, sent a picture of his car so we could spot him, and showed up right on time. I wish we would have asked him to pick us up earlier as our ride to the airport was very interesting and informative about Panama City. Alex was a great driver and tour guide on the way to the airport. Very nice man and we enjoyed our ride with him very much

I was in Panama to finalize my residency visa. I had to be at specific places at specific times on multiple days. Both drivers I had Juan and Alfredo were terrific! They were timely and courteous. They both spoke English well a lot better than my Spanish. Juan even helped me communicate when I needed to buy a local cell phone. Gracias Juan and Alfredo! You made getting to my appointments stress free! I highly recommend booking through Viator if this is their standard level of service...very impressed.

Thanks for all, was a pleasure!

Nos atendió Javier, muy buena persona, muy atento y siempre viendo por nuestra seguridad. Aunque su servicio fue bueno podría mejorar mucho más aprendiendo a usar Waze para poder calcular mejor los tiempos de traslado y utilizar rutas más seguras y confiables. Por andar queriendo evadir tráfico nos fue peor y estuvimos a punto de perder el vuelo. Por lo demás todo bien.

Alfredo a été un chauffeur extraordinaire. Il nous a fait découvrir Panama au complet. Un service privé et parfait dans une voiture actuel.
Merci encore une fois.
