Private tour to discover Panama's rich history and natural beauty. We'll start in Old Panama, the oldest city on the Pacific Coast, where you'll learn about the area's colonial architecture and history. Then, head to the Old Town for a glimpse of colorful buildings and cobblestone streets. Next, drive to Ancon Hill for breathtaking views of Panama City and the canal. Enjoy nature at its finest with a variety of flora and fauna. Visit the Causeway, a series of four small islands once part of the canal, for beautiful views of the skyline and the Bay of Panama. Then, learn about the Panama Canal's history and impact on global trade in the Old Canal Zone. See the old American-style houses and buildings that once housed canal workers and their families. Finally, witness the Panama Canal, one of the world's most impressive engineering feats and watch as ships pass through the locks. This private tour is perfect for those who want to discover Panama's historical and natural wonders in a personalized experience.
This was our second day with Horacio and we were able to do everything we hoped for. Panama Viejo, walking through Casco Viejo with a little shopping and great photo ops. Even gelato and Geisha Coffee. Then lunch,the Panama Canal and watching the ships. A lot packed into the day with lots of great info. Very enjoyable and Horacio is very personable and knowledgeable and happy to work with you so you can make the experience perfect. Highly recommend!!
Horacio was amazing. We had a city tour and a stop at the locks but asked for some customization. He happily took us to where HE would eat lunch (A fish market just outside of old town). He also took us to a US cemetery (second largest outside the USA) after we just casually asked what it was. He was very knowledgeable about all things Panama and was happy to answer any extra questions we had. He also gave us time to stop at the Cerveceria La Rana Dorada after we saw it on the tour of old town.
Horacio provided a superb tour of Panama City. His historical commentary and area knowledge tremendously enhanced our experience. The vehicle was excellent and comfortable. Along the way, he selected experiences and sites that were of particular interest to us. This is an excellent day tour of Panama City.
Horacio is an exceptionally good guide. He is fluent in English. He is very knowledgeable on many subjects. He is a careful driver and comfortable to be around. He has a great sense of humor and a beautiful smile.
Horacio was an exceptional guide! Not only did he seem to possess a vast knowledge of Panama city, the canal and its history, and the country of Panama, but he was also able to explain things clearly and well. He timed our visit to the Miraflores locks perfectly, and fit in everything we had requested and more. He was even able to find us toucans, a sloth, and called down tamarin monkeys from the trees! It was a great day!
Horacio was spectacularly knowledgeable and kind. He was on time, waiting for us when we exited the airport. He was flexible in adjusting to meet the things we wanted to do and taught us quite a bit about Panama. He was passionate about his country and it was a joy. I would definitely recommend contacting Horacio for a tour.
