5.00This is a very worthwhile tour. Alex is a great tour guide. He grew up in the area and knows so much about the history of Panama. We learned a lot. It is just the right amount of time and walking. He left us at a great restaurant for lunch or there are a lot of restaurants and shops in the area.
We recommend Alex!

5.00We loved the tour. Alex was very well prepared and made the history come alive. It could be made a bit more clear that the tour is all walking. We went on ore first day in town and the heat and humidity caused use to leave the group early. Alex was understanding, pointed us to a nice hotel bar and wished us well. Really good overview of the old city.
History and fun!!
