We will start the experience by visiting two of the most popular tourist attractions in the country: the world-famous Panama Canal and the Casco Viejo(Colonial City). Our first or last stop could be the Miraflores visitor center(depending on the transit schedule of the ships), where we will see the Canal in full action and watch up close vessels passing through the locks. We will also enjoy a 3D movie at the IMAX Theater. After that, we'll travel along Balboa Avenue, taking in the sights of modern Panama City, also known as the "Manhattan of Central America," until we reach our final destination, the Colonial Casco Viejo. In Casco Viejo, we'll take a walking tour, visit all its plazas and colonial buildings, and end our experience with a stunning view of the Panama City skyline from the Amador Causeway.

We loved the tour; it is very worthwhile! It is really interesting. Our guide Ricky was very attentive, and his explanations were very good. He took great photos of us at each interesting point. He was very punctual at all times and always attentive to every detail.

Excellent experience with Jorge! He was a wealth of knowledge and enthusiasm as our guide. We were the only guests for a group tour to Casco Antiguo, Causeway Amador, and Panama Canal. The highlight of our tour was watching human ingenuity in action at the Panama Canal. Highly recommended experience. It's the best way to see the highlights of Panama City if you have limited time.
Best anniversary Ever!!

Jorge our tour guide was wonderful! He communicated with us before the tour day, was on time (actually early) to pick us up, nice clean vehicle. He shared a great deal about the history of Panama (he is very knowledgeable about that!) He offered us options so we could customize the tour to our liking. All in all he is an amazing tour guide and we would highly recommend this tour!

We had a very enjoyable and informative tour. Our tour guide Jorge did everything he could to make our tour exactly what we were hoping for. He was very knowledgeable about the history of Panama and everything we were seeing.

Our guide Jorge arrived promptly to collect us from the hotel. He drove us through the Old Town and we then walked much of the area. All the time Jorge was educating us with the history of the Old Town, the buildings, Government, etc. He had amazing and interesting knowledge of both history and current affairs. He then drove us to the Miraflores canal Locks Visitor centre and again, regaling us with the history of the Panama Canal. His timing for entry to watch the film and experience of 2 huge ships entering the locks was perfect. Jorge was the perfect guide and gentleman. If we have a return visit to Panama we would certainly ask for Jorge to be our guide.

In a word, awesome! Our tour guide, Jonathan, was engaging, knowledgeable and experienced. He picked us up promptly at 11am . We opted to skip the walking portion through Casco Viejo as we had already spent the previous 3 days strolling that area on our own . Instead, we were off in Jonathan's car toward the Canal first winding our way around the city streets listening to a history and geography lesson which was both educational and entertaining . It was obvious that Jonathon knew his stuff As we left the urban area, we found ourselves on a combination of older roads and newer highways , each with a history of their own until we were along side a portion of the Canal itself. Along the way, Jonathan would slow down or stop, providing us with a play by play description of the sites. Eventually, we arrived at the Visitor's center and after a short respite, we enjoyed an absolutely impressive 3D Imax movie , narrated by Morgan Freeman, all about the Panama Canal including it's history and operation as well as the future endeavors underway . Then, we made our way to an area immediately adjacent to the locks, as we observed a giant container ship being carefully guided through the canal. Jonathan then seamlessly navigated us in and out of the crowd to the exit. We drove back to the hotel completely satisfied with a totally one of a kind experience .
all of them very nice nothing to afraid.very reccomended
