Discover Panama’s flavors on a 2.5-hour foodie walking tour. Savor fresh juices, traditional appetizers, diverse dishes, and innovative desserts.
- Parque Recreativo Omar Torrijos - It is Panama City’s answer to Central Park. Spanning nearly 124 acres, the former golf course was declared a public park in the 1970s by then-President Omar Torrijos. It was named after this president, who was also responsible for negotiating the treaty with President Jimmy Carter which finally gave full ownership of the Panama Canal and its territories to Panamanians in 1999. Today, it is where you’ll find family and friends exercising, picnicking, and relaxing.
- San Francisco, Panamá - One of the most gourmet neighborhoods in Panama’s capital. Panama City is also a UNESCO Creative City of Gastronomy for its sustainable and innovative development through food. In San Francisco, you’ll find several restaurants, bars, and cafes representing Panamanian gastronomy, like Miranda Bakery, Casa Volcan, and Belisario included in our tour.

Parque Omar is where we start our 2.5-hour foodie walking tour. We’ll kick things off by visiting a juice stand for a drink made with some fresh seasonal fruits and veggies. You may be tasting passion fruit for the first time, but you will also taste the sweetest pineapple in the world. Next we’ll stop at an open-air restaurant for appetizers based on traditional Panamanian food like carimañola and hojaldra. From there, meander through the neighborhood to arrive at a casual restaurant where we will taste some dishes inspired by Panama’s diverse and influential immigrants – think asian-style, braised pork belly with greens and white rice and flavorful, mediterranean grilled octopus (included). The tour concludes at a bakery owned and operated by a couple who met at cooking school, where they now apply new techniques to local ingredients to redefine Panamanian desserts like mamallena, which you get to sample.
