5.00I don’t know if everyone’s experience will be the same as mine, because everyone doesn’t get Kati as their guide. But she was AMAZING. So very informative, kind, and patient. Not to mention, she takes the best pictures. It was a great day for our group well spent learning about the culture and history of Panama. It was about 4.5 hours. There was lots of walking so wear comfy shoes. I would 1000000% recommend.
Great Tour and Guide

5.00We had an awesome time on our tour of Panama. The trip to the Panama Canal was very informative. It was a wonderful surprise to learn that the film of the Panama Canal was narrated by US actor Morgan Freeman. The tour of Panama and old town was awesome. Our tour guide, Kayiuska, took her time discussing history of Panama and pointed out areas in Old Town that assisted us in our visit the following day. Overall the tour was informative and special thanks to Katiuska for being so accommodating and kind. I highly recommend this tour.
A enjoyable experience with a great guide

She gave us a solid education about the history and operation of the Panama Canal. Then she took us on an interesting walking tour of Casco Viejo. We enjoyed the entire experience.
Kati was a great guide!
