Great city tour - We spent the day with Ricardo and it was perfect. We arrived on a red eye with our kids, who were very tired. Ricardo kept the energy high and was able to Taylor the trip to our preferences. Thank you!

There's a lot to see! - Our guide Jorge was very flexible with the itinerary and adjusted based on how the day went. Loved putting a lock on the fence and seeing so many neighborhoods. So many parts of Paname and the history we never knew about.

A day in Panama City - Thoroughly enjoyable experience! Our guide, Enilda, was very knowledgeable and quite thorough. She was also very helpful and patient with my mom, who has difficulty in walking. Our tour started off at the bridge of the Americas, then across the Amador Causeway, where we stopped frequently to take pics. Enilda also assisted us with photos. After that we headed over to Casco Viejo. This part of the tour involved alot of walking but it was wonderful. We were able to experience the culture of the Panamanian people, their art and creativity. The old city, it's architecture and beauty is definitely worthwhile to behold. We stopped for lunch at the Central Hotel in Casco Viejo, and the food was amazing. We are vegetarian and the meals was quite enjoyable and refreshing; even the staff was very courteous and pleasant. After this, we stopped at a souvenir shop. The prices were reasonable and we shopped alot, especially as the merchants were very friendly and provided great deals. We then headed over to the Panama canal, to view the passage of a vessel through the canal and the operation of the Mira Flores locks. We were also able to view the short film on the construction of this engineering phenomenon. Enilda was truly a delightful and amazing guide. She was fluent in English and Spanish and it made communication with everyone so much easier. I'd definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Panama. It's truly a remarkable experience.

A wonderful immersive experience! - Eddie made this a wonderful and knowledgeable experience! I travelled with my parents (both in their 70s). Eddie was timely and gave us plenty of information about all the buildings and neighborhoods we passed, giving us better knowledge of Panama City and Panama in general.
We had visited the Miraflores the day before, and so he was willing to take us to the Bridge of the Americas instead, and he also accommodated our request to try local food.
I highly recommend this tour and Eddie!

Such an incredible tour experience!! Luis Pinto is an amazing guide, this was the highlight of our trip! - We had an absolutely amazing tour with Luis Pinto. It was a private tour for the two of us, and our tour guide drove us in his clean car all around the city. Our tour guide (Luis) even arrived extra early to make sure he was waiting for us in the lobby. He had perfect English (despite never visiting an English speaking country). We started our tour at the canal, and we arrived in perfect timing to see a ship passing through the canal. Luis knew all the workers at the canal visitor center since he has done this for many years. He was also extremely flexible— we told him we already visited Casco Viejo so instead he took us to a former American army base that other tours don’t cover, and even made a stop at the Panama sign for pictures too. I highly recommend the tour with Luis. My only recommendation is that officially the tour was called for 10am, but we left a bit earlier since Luis arrived earlier in case, and we just just arrived in time to see the last boat, so make sure to coordinate with the tour guide to make sure you don’t miss seeing the boat as that was really a highlight of our trip.

Panama canal and City tour - We had a special driver Jorge, who first gave us a history lesson of Pannama and the canal. We had a great time with him ending with having dinner where the locals eat. The Panama canal tour was great we were able to see ships pass through.
