Great! - If you're looking for the ultimate Panama City experience, look no further! Our private tour was absolutely flawless from start to finish. The timing was perfect—we never felt rushed, yet we managed to see all the heavy hitters without the stress of the crowds.
Alfonso is hands-down the best guide in the city. He’s incredibly knowledgeable, personable, and knows all the best spots for photos and history. We covered the Miraflores Locks (a must-see to witness the canal in action), wandered the stunning colonial streets of Casco Viejo, and enjoyed the breeze and views along the Amador Causeway.
Truly a 10/10 experience. If you can request Alfonso, do it—he’ll make your trip unforgettable!

Drive around in private comfort! - Review from my perspective for a family of 9 private tour. I thought it was avg, others really liked it,. Good if you like driving around, not a lot of walking.
1. We missed the movie at the locks so left, which was our decision. We had just cruised through canal.
2. Panama City drive was nice overview.
3. Traffic is really bad in Casco Viejo and hard to find parking, which is out of their control. I would have liked a little more time there walking around, others in our group were fine with it. We did choose to sit in a lovely hotel lobby to cool off.
4. Communication among group BEFORE getting in van because we all had different ideas and the driver will do what you want.
5. I do highly recommend private tours through Viator vs being herded around with cruise excursion.
Overall recommend!
