5.00I Had Hector as my tour guide and he was simply amazing. He was very knowledgeable about Panama city and Panama. He was very patient while I took a lot of pictures and absorb so much information. As a warning bring comfortable shoes and an umbrella since it does rain a lot in Panama but not for a long time . It is well worth the tour.
This was Incredible

5.00When I booked this tour I didn't really know what to expect but, from the moment I met the Tour guide Hector P, from the vibe he transmitted, how professional and friendly he was, I knew it was going to be a great experience for me and my family. I've learned a lot about Panama, the people, culture, the Canal, discovered the beauty of the country and most of all he cared about me and my family by providing a tailored tour. Hector P is a Certified, multilingual Tour guide and that helps a lot because my husband's first language is French, so he spoke French to my husband even though we did not book the tour in French, Hector P did the tour in both English and French so that my husband would enjoy the tour fully and I did not even need to translate anything to my husband, I simply focused on enjoying everything. My family and I fully recommend Live Folks and Hector P to all other tourists in Panama who wants to have a memorable experience! The best Tour guide we've ever had!!!
