Gamboa Reserve Experience - We stayed at the Westin and Joseph from Panamazing hod us all set up and we had a great time, saw some monkeys, sloths, big freighters’s coming through the canal and an aerial tram with some amazing views. Pick up from the hotel and the return was great and the driver was well prepared with cold bottles of water and snacks. Fun day!

Great trip to Panama Canal with young kids - Wonderful trip! Perfect half day in which we saw the canal and then went on the lake and saw the wildlife. Our tour guide, Roberto McBarnette, was great. Very knowledgeable. And booming with Maria Capellan at the resort was a breeze.

Relatively small group... - Relatively small group which was nice. The boat ride to see three different types of monkeys was the highlight. The view from the observation tower was beautiful with 360 view of the Chagres River and Gatun Lake. The buffet lunch served at the visitor center had good Panamanian food

This combo tour included... - This combo tour included a boatride in the Panama Canal, a boatride in Gatun Lake to Monkey Islands, visits from monkeys onto the tour boat; a tram ride through the rainforest, a climb to the observation tower with breathtaking views at the top! We saw butterflies, orchids and beautiful but poisonous frogs at the frog farm and sloths! The guides were awesome and made the tour so educational as well ensuring that we had a safe a highly memorable experience. If you travel to Panama City, Panama this tour should absolutely be included in your itinerary!! I can’t recommend highly enough!!

Gamboa Rainforest and Panama Canal and City tour - This tour was amazing! So interesting and informative! Out tour guide Michael was very knowledgeable and very professional. It was obvious he loves his country. We also did the Canal and City tour with our guide Heavenly-yes that's her real name! She was terrific also. So much fun. We also schedule our airport transfers with Panamazing. The whole experience was perfect top to bottom. All transfers were on time and everyone was very accommodating. Thank you Panamazing for making our trip so memorable! Do not hesitate to book anything with Panamazing!!
