The best tour I’ve ever done! - My kids and I came to Panama for a family wedding and we wanted to see the highlights. I found this tour through the hotel and I liked that it would pick us up there. The owner (Eduardo) was very responsive to my emails confirming time and place of the pickup. It ended up being a private tour. Our driver was Mr. Z. He was very knowledgeable about Panamá (and its trees and flora) and seemed to know all the workers at the Panama Canal. That was our first stop. Mr. Z confirmed when the ship was passing through and got us there in time. In fact, we got to see two ships go through. My daughter (an ocean engineering major) was thrilled! She’s learning how to build ships. Next, Mr. Z took us through Panama City and pointed out the highlights. We opted not to get out and walk. Last official stop was the amador causeway. We did some shopping, took some pictures and fed the fish (and birds). We loved our time with Mr. Z can highly recommend this tour and tour company.

Educational, informative, interesting, and fun way to learn about Panama’s rich history - The experience is definitely unforgettable. Our driver was very punctual, and very efficient throughout the tour. We got to see the ships going through the canal with narration about the mechanics of the canal. Then we saw an IMax documentary of the canal history. Our tour guide Eddie was super amazing, he assisted us well in navigating the town, shops, the city and the old town. His knowledge of Panama is impeccable, you will not regret booking this tour. We got an experience that is really priceless, worth more than the price we paid.

Great 1/2 day tour - Very informative and fun tour. Our guide Eddie was fabulous!! Make sure you ask for Eddie. Only item to watch out for is don’t believe their claim for 99.9% of the time their see ships go through the locks. They don’t have any more control over this than the other tours.

Panama City - Well organized and informative - Had a wonderful and insightful tour. Picked up from cruise ship with no problems. Coordination was quite good in English. They will navigate all three of the major sites. And he was super helpful and experienced. Recommended for any visitors coming into the city.
