One of the wonders of the world is the Panama Canal - Saul from Paraiso Travel turned our excursion day into a real miracle. Punctuality, professionalism and charm conquered us from the first minutes of the meeting. The huge material on history, ethnography and culture expanded our horizons and allowed us to understand more deeply the life of Panamanians today. Constant attention, cold drinking water, tasting of snak produced in Panama, and finally souvenirs as a keepsake are proof of the professionalism and high level of training of the guide and the company he represents. I recommend this excursion and rate it with the maximum score.

Memorable tour in Panamá - Thank you Jose and Maria. We enjoyed our tour of the Panamá Canal both on the Pacific and Atlantic sides. The boat ride was fun, especially seeing the monkeys. We appreciated Jose going above and beyond for us. He had a wealth of knowledge and made our trip to Panamá memorable. We would highly recommend your company.
