Great Private Tour! - Our private tour with Eric was fantastic. He was very informative and patient. Not only did we tour the cana, he took us around the city and explained all the sites. We saw things we would have never seen otherwise.
Thank you Eric. Awesome job.

Fantastic Tour with Eddie as our guide - Eddie was a fabulous tour guide! He knew exactly how to avoid the big lines at the canal, so we could see more in less time. He spoke really good English & gave us the best tour ever!! We were able to see what we wanted to see in Panamá & get a great feel for Panamá. You won’t regret THIS one!

Great Private Tour, with wonderful guide. Prompt Hotel pickup and drop off - Jorge was an excellent driver and guide on our private tour. He picked us up at our hotel promptly. He knew the town and it's traffic congestion areas and times. Plotted out the direction of our tour, and got us there on time, with great precision and safety. Visited the 3 islands that make up the Amador Causeway, then drove thru and around Casco Viejo, before visiting the Mira Flores Locks. He guided us thru which areas to see first, such as the IMAX movie presentation about the canal history, then we visited the viewing stands to see a cruise ship and container ship pass thru. By all means, give them a try

Excellent city and Panama Canal tour. - Our guide Eduardo, went out of the way to make the most of our tour. He was knowledgeable in the history of Panama and its landmarks. He show us the most interesting places. The tour lasted more than the scheduled time due to delays at the Panamá Canal, still he completed all the sites that were included in the tour.

Phenomenal private tour of Panama City, Panama - We had a fantastic experience on our private city tour of Panama City with Gil as our guide. He was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and engaging throughout the entire tour. Over the course of a little more than five hours, we gained a deep appreciation for Panama’s rich history and culture.
The itinerary was well-paced and included memorable stops such as Casco Viejo, the Amador Causeway with its three scenic islands, a delicious lunch at the vibrant fish market, and an awe-inspiring visit to the Panama Canal. The tour was both educational and entertaining, exceeding our expectations in every way.
We highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore and learn more about the fascinating history and beauty of Panama City.

Disappointing Tour – More Like a Chauffeur Service - We booked a private tour expecting an informative and engaging experience, but unfortunately, it fell short. While the car was clean and comfortable, the tour guide provided minimal details about the sights, mostly reciting information as if reading from Wikipedia and sharing TikTok videos.
At the Panama Canal, he simply told us we needed to pay if we wanted to enter—without offering an alternative plan if we chose not to. Then, he suggested we watch a film about the canal but took us in after it had already started, saying we could still catch the "good part."
Instead of a well-planned tour showcasing Panama’s history and culture, we were taken to multiple duty-free stores, which was not what we signed up for. We were expecting to explore and learn about Panama, not just be driven around with minimal commentary. It felt more like a friend giving us a ride than a professional tour. Would not recommend if you're looking for a real guided experience.
