10/10 – The Best Food Tour in Panama! - If you're visiting Panama and want an unforgettable, delicious experience, book a food tour with Sorhay! You will not regret it! From start to finish, everything was perfectly customized to our tastes and interests. Sorhay is not only incredibly knowledgeable about Panamanian cuisine and culture, but she's also warm, passionate, and genuinely fun to be around. Every stop on the tour felt thoughtfully chosen local spots we never would have found on our own and the food was out of this world. We tasted everything from street food favorites to traditional dishes, all while learning about the history and people behind the flavors. It was so much more than just eating, it was a full cultural im Thank you, Sorhay, for an amazing day ❤️

Amazing guide. Amazing tour. Amazing experience. - Amazing day tour and the food was even better!! Real Panamanian vibes!! Sohray was engaging, interactive and extremely flexible! She had a wealth of knowledge and took us to places way off the beaten path. (For example when my girlfriend wanted to visit the Hindu temple ! What!?? Yep. She took us there.) I won’t go into the food places she took us to because they are top secret. And delicious. 😳😁. Trust Sorhay. Trust the process. We even got to meet the Princess Riley at the end who made sure I knew she was not 3 but a solid 5 years of age! 😂😂🫶🫶 amazing tour overall!

Best way to get a taste of the real Panamá City - As others may have said, I would give this tour 5+ stars if possible. Sorhay picked us up at our hotel and made us feel so comfortable and relaxed as we leisurely tasted our way around Panamá City. This tour is tailored to your individual interests and in addition to trying the many varied flavors of local cuisine, we also saw unexpected wildlife including sloths, coatimundi, and a caiman! As we drove to each location, we also learned the fascinating history of this unique place. One of the best tours we have experienced!

Worth Every Penny - I highly recommend. This tour is worth every penny. This is more than a food tour but something you have to do if you visit Panama.

If you’re a foodie traveling to Panamá, look no further & book this tour! - As someone who loves to travel and has done many tours around the world, this food tour was hands down one of the best experiences I’ve ever done. As a former journalist, Sorhay is kind, curious and observant, and she uses these expert skills to customize tours for her clients. My husband and I loved getting to know Sorhay and seeing and eating our way throughout a Panama City that Sorhay clearly loves and shares with her clients. We met a tour guide and left having made a friend. Highly recommend this tour!

Best Tour in Panama - We had an amazing time on our Panamanian food tour, thanks to our incredible guide, Sorhay. She was warm, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond—especially for our one-year-old. Traveling with a toddler isn’t easy, but Sorhay made everything feel effortless and fun. The food was delicious, the experience was authentic, and Sorhay truly made it unforgettable. Highly recommend booking with her!
