My name is Javier Nuñez, I was born in Panama. I am a tour guide in my country with 15 years of experience. What led me to become a tour guide in Panama was my love for my country and the realization that with this beautiful profession I would have the opportunity to show tourists from around the world the wonderful places that Panama has to offer, including its beaches on both the Pacific and Atlantic coasts, its forests and natural parks, and it would allow me to tell them about our history, which dates back to the arrival of the first human groups in the 1500s, followed by the Spanish conquest, the colonial era, and our independence. Or how the construction of the Panama Canal began in the 1800s by the French and was completed in 1914 by the Americans. Having the opportunity to show you more about our culture, cuisine, indigenous reserves, and all the wonders of this small country with a huge heart will make your stay unforgettable. If you have any special requests, I'll be happy to help, so you can take home the most beautiful memories of my Panama.

Our small country has a very important geographical position, as it connects two oceans over a distance of 50 km, which passes through the artificial Gatun Lake. During your stopover in Panama, you will have the opportunity to visit the Panama Canal, learn about its history and engineering, and watch a 45-minute video that tells our story from the 1500s to the present day. We will visit the old town, where we will walk and discover its history. Then, we will take a tour of the modern city. We will visit the Amador Causeway, which consisted of three islands connected using rocks from the construction of the Panama Canal. If you would like to have lunch and enjoy our cuisine, I will gladly take you there. Once we're done, we will return to the airport so you can continue your trip. Let me show you the beautiful places in my country.
