Wonderful experience traveling by boat through part of the canal. It was great to see and experience how the locks work. Lunch was delicious too! The only criticism I have is they should not make people wait in the hot sun before taking tickets. I got overheated and ended up with a headache for much of the day. There has to be a better way to do that.

The trip is slow by design as you move through the canal. Iann was a very good narrator pointing out interesting places along the way and providing historical context. The buffet lunch was good; nothing fancy but good and filling.

It is an enjoyable, interesting, and memorable experience. The guide shared a lot of information - too much, actually. It would have been nice if he did not talk non-stop the entire time and allowed us the opportunity to just take in the experience. The food was surprisingly good (although not the best situation for vegetarians).

An amazing experience. Everything went according to plan. Fine bus ride, great sailing on the Canal and through three locks back to Flamenco Island. Edwin's comments in English and Spanish were interesting, eye-opening, and accurate. The crew was helpful and attentive. The whole package was almost magical in its implementation.

The trip on the boat was fantastic: the boat left on time, the food was good, the announcer or person on mic was great, all-around a good experience. It's the arrival that horrible. First, the instructions of where to check in were beyond bad. The Uber driver couldn't find the place. There is a series of Islands and marinas. I literally had to go into a port authority and ask them. Then have the guy come out and explain to the Uber driver how to get there. Then you walk into the mall like building and run around looking for the Panama sign. The worst part was they had no shade as you checked in for the tour and the line was super long with one person checking you in. The older people were ready to pass out from the heat. I would still recommend, but be extremely careful about the check-in and where you are going. It's extremely easy to get turned around.
