Speechless - Gabriel is an excellent guide. Very knowledgeable, respectful, patient and very respectful. He has an excellent well conditioned vehicle. As a solo traveler, I felt respectful and safe. He takes an extra mile to please you. Thanks, Gabriel.

Seeing Panamá from the right angle. - We had an incredible experience touring Panamá City with Gabriel as our guide. From the moment we met him, Gabriel was courteous, attentive, and extremely knowledgeable. He took the time to walk us through the rich history of the Old Town, the impressive engineering of the Panama Canal, and several other key landmarks — always making sure we were comfortable and fully engaged. Gabriel patiently answered all our questions and made sure we understood the significance of every place we visited. His passion for Panamanian history and culture was evident, and it truly enhanced our experience. If you’re looking for a professional, informative, and kind guide, we highly recommend Gabriel. Our visit to Panamá City would not have been the same without him. Thank you, Gabriel, for making our day so memorable!

We had an amazing time! Gabriel was the best! - Gabriel was amazing! Such as sweetie! He picked us up from our hotel and gave excellent history notes while on route. He was super patient as we encountered rain while at the Mira Flores Center watching the boats cross the Locks and he allowed extra time to watch the boats. Though it was raining, he still made the best of the tour and we had a great time. We made a couple of stops in the beautiful old town and learned about the Amador Causeway. I would definitely do this tour again in the summer months! Thanks so much!

An interesting tour with an excellent guide! - Gabriel was extremely patient, and dedicated to our family. The day was warmer than expected, but Gabriel made adjustments to accommodate our needs. We enjoyed the water and snacks that Gabriel gave us. His knowledge of Panama City and the history of Panama is vast.

Above and beyond. Very flexible! - We had a great time with Gabriel Morales as our tour guide! He took the time to answer all of our questions. Gabriel’s attention to our interests was especially nice as he tailored the tour with a couple extra stops for photos. Gabriel offered his suggestions on some of the best restaurants and discotecs to go to. I highly recommend this tour!!

Amazing experience! - Gabriel was our guide and he was amazing! He picked us up on time and we never felt rushed. We were able to see the ships pass through the locks and also experienced the IMAX show which should not be missed (great explanation of how the canal came to be). Next we went to Amador where we had photo ops along with a stop in Casco Viejo to visit some historic sites and great photo ops in La Calle de Los Somberos, La Catedral, an art museum, two convents, and lots of street vendor shopping available. At the end of tour he suggested a great place to eat at El Mercado del pescado! Overall such a great experience and worth every single penny! Don’t hesitate and book with Gabriel!
