What To Expect
Marvel at one of Latin America's most unique skyscrapers! Affectionately nicknamed "El Tornillo" (The Screw) by locals, the F&F Tower is a 52-story architectural icon in the Financial District. Its striking helical (twisting) design makes it a must-see for a photo stop, showcasing Panama City's ultra-modern side against the classic charm of your tour vehicle. This building dramatically highlights the city's ambition and role as a modern financial hub.
Our journey starts in Obarrio, a neighborhood defined by its modern glass towers and commercial energy. Sit back and relax as your private chauffeur handles the city streets, giving you a 'celebrity' view from our open-air Safari while you skip the stress of navigating Panama's traffic. This area offers a stunning contrast to the historic districts we will visit later, providing a clear picture of the city's rapid growth as a global financial hub.

The Best City Tour in Panama.

5.00This was our third trip to Panama City & we have done City Tours before but I must say this is the best Tour we have ever been on. Our guide Rueben is really knowledgeable & was able to explain & teach us so much about Panama City. He was really full of vibes & he made our tour most enjoyable & rememberable. My Wife, 2 adult Sons & myself had so much fun on this tour we are planning to do it again. We have never repeated excursions but believe me when I say we had the time of our lives on this Tour
Excellent introduction to Panama City with Marlon Tomi Tours

5.0010/10 would highly recommend. Our driver was Ruben. From the first interaction, he was on time, picked us up from our hotel, greeted us at the door and extremely friendly and inviting. He explained and gave details of what to expect and the places we were going to see. A true gentleman. Opened the door always, and made us feel comfortable. He was very knowledgeable and gave great history about Panama, the culture and the people. We laughed, played music, took lots of pictures and videos. He was so helpful with taking our photos and videos. He made sure to take many and gave us options. We played music cracked jokes and it truly felt like family. The car was beautiful and fit a party of four comfortably. If you’re ever in Panama do Tomi Tours and ask for Ruben. Beautiful person and soul. He made our entire trip worth it! A must do when in Panama! If you’re the boss and reading this, give Ruben a raise. He represented your company with great service and an experience we’ll cherish for ever.
Great Tour!

5.00We had an incredible experience with Ruben! He showed us around the city and was quick to ask what we are interested in seeing, so he could tailor the tour to our interests. The duration of the tour was perfect, and Ruben was so patient when we asked him to take pictures of us everywhere! We will definitely be back for another tour!
