Great Guide! - Rafael was an amazing guide and even helped us with transportation to and from Playa Bonita to the tour. He was so knowledgeable and very easy to understand. He took us into several air conditioned places during the tour which was appreciated and brought us to a very reasonable souvenir shop with a bathroom about halfway through. I couldn't believe how much he knew and how much we learned in such a short period. Definitely recommend this tour!

Remarkable experience in the old part of Panama City - It was a remarkable experience through the winding alleys and cobblestone streets of Casco Viejo, punctuated with interesting information provided by our knowledgeable tour guide Nidia. Nidia exhibited a strong understanding of the complex history behind Casco Viejo, sharing many tales of its colonial origins. Moreover, she skilfully navigated between past and present, providing us with valuable insights into Panama's current economic challenges, including the operational issues faced by the Panama Canal. I also appreciated Nidia's ability to give comprehensive answers to all the questions that myself and other group members had about various topics related to Panama's socio-economic issues. I highly recommend this tour as it shows a different facet of Panama City, away from the skyscrapers dominating its financial district.

Casco Viejo tour is terrific! - Elmer was a fabulous tour guide! He took us to many different spots in the old city, many of which we had not seen on other tours. He carefully explained the history of the area, and we discussed other topics, such as how the UNESCO World Heritage Designation has changed the area. At the end of the tour he even spoke with our Uber driver to make sure he picked us up at the right spot! Very interesting, very comprehensive! Can’t say enough good things about the tour.
