Luis is the best tour guide ever. I would happily go on any tour he is hosting. He is funny and so knowledgeable about the country. While I enjoyed the Panama Canal part, the city tour was the star for me. He took us off the beaten path and showed us the things we really wanted to see. It was almost like a customized event. I am planning to move to Panama next year and he had so many tips for me and really showed me what day to day life looks like in the country. Book the tour!

the tour operator is so responsible and he answers all our questions and provides excellent services. The other travelers in the same tour group are also so warm and friendly. I have not seen this type of nice and friendly atmosphere long time after pandemic. Really recommend this tour to other travelers.

This was a great experience. The text book learning does not compare to the real life experience and the live narration during each step of the process. Great for all ages.

Luis P. was an excellent tour guide. We learned so much and he went out of his way to accommodate us. He was personable, knowledgeable, and efficient. The tour company kept us updated on our pick up time as it had to change due to a visit to the Panama Canal from a foreign dignitary- something the tour company couldn’t control. They still completed the full tour and it was great. We would highly recommend this tour and Luis P. Also his car is cool, comfortable, and clean.

Luis was a very good tour guide. He gave us a lot of back story on the history of Panama. The boat tour of the Panama Canal was excellent and cool. The cultural was very knowledgeable and life filling. I would recommend this tour for others to do and I would recommend doing the tour with Luis

The tour was amazing!!! Our tour guide, Luis, was prompt, detailed, informative, knowledgeable and checked in on us at all our stops to ensure that all was going well. My husband and I got to hang out with some great new friends from Atlanta, who we met when we were collected at our Hotel. We will be recommending Luis, Richard and the entire team at Lloyd Express to all our friends and family as a 'must do' when in Panama. Thanks again for a fantastic day Luis😁

There was excellent communication with the tour operator and our driver and tour guide (Luis) was excellent, friendly, very knowledgeable and his English was also excellent. We toured the city and casco viejo (old town) and also went to Mira Flores on the canal.
