From start to finish, our tour with Danyal was nothing short of amazing. Danyal’s passion for the country shines through in every detail from the way he shares fascinating history and local stories, to the personalized touches that made our day feel truly special. The itinerary was perfectly balanced: we got to see iconic landmarks, hidden gems we never would’ve found on our own, and enjoy authentic local food that was absolutely delicious. Transportation was comfortable, the schedule was well-paced, and Danyal always made sure we were safe, comfortable, and having a great time. By the end of the tour, it didn’t feel like we were saying goodbye to a guide it felt like we were leaving a new family member. Danyal’s humor and genuine care turned strangers into friends, and friends into family. That’s a rare gift. If you’re ever visiting Panama and want a guide who’s knowledgeable, fun, and dedicated to giving you the best possible experience, look no further. This was easily the highlight of our trip. Thank you, Danyal, for showing us the heart of Panama!

Danyal is not just a tour guide, he is an exceptional experience in himself. From the moment we met him, his passion, warmth, and knowledge brought Panama to life in a way we never expected. Every stop felt handpicked just for us, from hidden waterfalls to local gems we would never have found on our own. What sets Danyal apart from others is not just his expertise, but who he is: genuine, kind, funny, and deeply connected to the people and places he shares. You don’t just see Panama with him, you feel it. Discover Panama 365 is without a doubt the best tour company have ever experienced.

Discover Panama 365 with Danyal was nothing short of exceptional. From start to finish, the service was flawless, prompt, professional, and deeply personalized. Danyal is incredibly knowledgeable and friendly and his rare gift of being able to blend Panama’s rich history with insightful commentary on current events was greatly appreciated. The experience was far more than a tour, it felt like a masterclass in culture and connection. Every detail was thoughtfully arranged, and his enthusiasm was truly contagious. I’ve traveled extensively, and this is by far the best experience I have ever had. If you are visiting Panama, do not hesitate, Discover Panama 365 is the BEST.

This was my first visit to Panama but because of Mr Danyal everything went exactly as he told and I was able to see quite alot in my 7 days stay there. Also being muslim, halal food was easily accessible. He has very good knowledge of the country and going to the Free Zone, he was able to direct me exactly to the shops that would interest me. I was very happy in Panama and now I cannot wait to return in December 2023 God's willing. I would like to thank Mr Danyal for all he did for us to make our stay comfortable in Panama.

We stayed in Panama for 4 days. Danyal was our tour guide through Panama City, the Panama canal and the Embera Tour. Each excursion was filled with information about the countries history as well as lots of fun. He also helped us with great food options, other places to visit and the night life. I would definitely book another trip to Panama to do any other tours offered through Danyal and his tour service.
