Full-Day Tour of Panama City, Panama - Tour was excellent. Guide adapted to our desires. There were a couple of language issues, but the guides worked very hard to resolve them.

Panama canal tour with panamatravelcorp.com - I had a very pleasant day on the panama canal and the surrounding jungle. Lots of wildlife and huge boats which is a nice combination. Pierre and his team are very nice and professional. Unfortunately I lost my camera during the trip. Pierre found it and personally delivered it to me in panama city. Very nice! I definitely recommend this company for panama tours.

Tour guide very knowledgeable, but finished unremarkable tour in 6 1/2 hours....mostly driving. Wanted to see new locks, but not possible except from a mile away.</p>
