Horatio was easy going, informative and full of local Panamanian fun facts. When we travel, we always love to start off our visit with a local guide to get us grounded. Horatio was awesome and answered all our questions very patiently and gave us a wonderful overview of Panamá City. He was also keenly aware of current US politics which provided for some fun banter. We highly recommend Horatio!

I bought this trip for my dad who was in town for a medical conference and he LOVED it. Horacio was very kind and knows a lot about the history of the canal and the city, something my dad enjoyed very much. He definitely recommends taking this tour.
