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.

Our guide, Murli was friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure we saw all the highlights while sharing interesting stories along the way.

5.00Marlon was an outstanding tour guide who exceeded my expectations. He was knowledgeable regarding the history of Panama and geared the tour towards areas, which reflected my personal interest. He also was kind enough to instruct me in conversational Spanish.
We got the history to a lot of historic areas Marlon took our pictures and did an excellent job showing us around.

5.00We had an incredible experience with our tour guide, Ronél. From start to finish, she made our Panama tour truly memorable. She was extremely knowledgeable, sharing insightful details about the history, culture, and landmarks throughout the tour, which made everything feel much more meaningful. Ronél also had a great eye for photography and went above and beyond to capture some amazing photos for us—something we’ll definitely appreciate long after the trip. Beyond that, her energy and personality made the entire experience even better; she was warm, engaging, and genuinely a joy to spend the day with. If you’re looking for a guide who is informative, thoughtful, and makes the experience both seamless and fun, I would highly recommend Ronél. She truly elevated our visit to Panama. The trip being 2 hours was the perfect amount of time to see everything. My wife and felt like 2 people per car was plenty.
Great Tour Experience

5.00We had a great experience with Tomi Tours Panama. From start to finish, everything was well organized and professional. The team was friendly, responsive, and made sure we felt comfortable throughout the entire tour. A special shoutout to our guide, Marlon, who truly made the experience memorable. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and shared fascinating insights about the local area while keeping everything fun and relaxed. One of the highlights was enjoying the delicious cocktails and fresh ceviche — such a perfect touch that really elevated the whole experience. Overall, I would definitely recommend Tomi Tours Panama to anyone looking to explore Panama in a smooth and enjoyable way. I’d happily book with them again.

5.00One of the highlights of my trip was a tour around Panama in a classic 1970’s Volkswagen, such a vibe! It wasn’t just a ride, it was a whole experience. We cruised through the city learning real history, not the boring kind either… the kind that makes you appreciate where you are and how it all came together. Our tour guide, Luigi, was EVERYTHING. Super knowledgeable, on time (which matters when you’re on vacation!), and he made the entire tour feel personal. He answered every question, kept the energy up, and made sure we didn’t miss a thing. And let me tell you he was the BEST photographer! 📸 He knew all the angles, all the spots, and made sure we got pictures that looked like a whole photoshoot. On top of that, we got to play our own music while riding through the city… just good vibes all around. If you’re in Panama, this is a must-do. It’s not just a tour, it’s a memory. 💛
Great experience
