¡Hola! Welcome to Panama! My name is Sharon, and I'd love to show you around my beautiful country! I was born and raised in Panama City, and I've been working in the tourism industry since 2003. I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Tourism and Hotel Management and am a licensed tour guide by the Panama Tourism Authority. Throughout my career, I've worked in different areas of tourism, including airline reservations, tour operations, hotels, and event planning. However, being a tour guide is especially rewarding because it allows me to meet people from around the world while sharing the history, culture, and traditions of my country. Panama has so much to offer! From the fascinating Panama Canal and the charming streets of Casco Viejo to the tropical rainforest and indigenous communities, there's always something interesting to discover. One of my favorite experiences is visiting an Embera Indigenous Village, where travelers have the opportunity to learn about local traditions while enjoying the beauty of nature. I enjoy offering personalized tours in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere, giving visitors the opportunity to explore Panama, ask questions, and discover places beyond the usual tourist attractions. Whether you're visiting Panama for the first time or returning to explore more, I'll be happy to help you plan a memorable experience. Feel free to contact me with any questions or requests for customized tours. I look forward to welcoming you to Panama! ¡Hasta pronto! :) *Education and Professional Training* - Bachelor's Degree in Tourism and Hotel Management, Universidad Latina de Panamá, Panama. - Licensed Tour Guide, Panama Tourism Authority. - Certificate in Tourism Development and Environmental Protection for Developing Countries, Harbin University of Commerce and Heilongjiang University, China. - Certificate in Tourism and Recreation, Universidad de Panamá, Panama.

Sharon was absolutely wonderful. It was amazing being taken around Panama with Sharon. She was not only a fun tour guide but was so prepared with snacks & even ponchos for the rain. Enjoyed every part of the tour and how knowledgeable you are about the city.
Sharon was an excellent guide. We've had many guides throughout the world and she is in the top tier. She is knowledgeable, patient, has a nice car and is a safe driver. She was also a good companion for our full day tour and didn't rush us. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Sharon was not only a great guide but also a great driver. On the day of our tour, the Miraflores Locks were closed. She suggested visiting the Agua Clara locks instead. As we drove there, the clouds opened up and dumped on us but we felt safe with Sharon's driving. By the time we reached the locks, it has generally stopped raining. She provided a great tour of the locks and the area. She then took us around old Panama City. It was a great day and we will return again soon
My dad and I had a fantastic tour! Sharon was a wonderful guide. She's very knowledgeable, and we enjoyed spending the day with her. Highly recommend!
Sharon is an amazing tour guide! We had a wonderful tour of Panama City concentrating on the Casco Viejo, but also exploring many other areas and the Miraflores locks. Sharon speaks excellent English, and answered our many questions with patience and humor. We had a great lunch stop, and much fun throughout the day. The 4 of us were comfortable in the minivan. Sharon was interested in accommodating our interests, and very helpful. We had a blast! We couldn't recommend anyone more highly.
