We had to arrange own transportation. From hotel to the canal meet-up. Fortunately maritime was able to to help me with this situation as Viator did not.

Overall this is a great way to experience the Panama Canal but it is definitely a long day. The check in process could definitely be improved - there were 2 people checking in over 160 people and the line is all in the sun. You check in just to be given a colored bracelet that tells you which bus to get on and which group you eat lunch with. Just felt like it could’ve been better organized or had some umbrellas for shade. The boat was very comfortable, lunch was great and very well organized. There was a lot of of waiting in the lochs for other boats to join, not sure if the timing of this varies or if there’s a way to adjust timing so there’s less hurry up and wait. It’s a very long day - all in all was 8-9 hours rather than 6, but would recommend

The guide was excellent and the rest of the staff was efficient and friendly. After the experience with the first lock, I went in the deck with AC to stay cool and snooze. I could still hear the guide’s enthusiasm in explaining the other 2 locks, his anecdotes, and answers to guests’ questions - historical, mechanical, political.

Great experience traversing part of the canal as you pass thru 3 lochs. Well organized and comfortable ship. Good information by tour guide through out. Just need to have patience as there are times you will wait for other vessels to clear Loch. But all worth the wait. Food was excellent and beer was cold!
