My name is Abdiel, Panamanian, married with 3 beautiful kids, Amanda, Aaliyah and Aaron. I was born and raised in Panama City, Panama, and I've been in the tourism business for the last 13 years of my life. I'd started with the tourism working for a local company in the year 2004, and as an eco-tourism interpreter my job was guiding participants to the surroundings of a National Park and giving them as much information as possible about the natural trails. After that, I started doing tours all over the country, all kinds of tours. I've spent some time working for an international company and that was a great help for the development of my language skills. In the last 4 to 5 years, I've dedicated myself to learning in a deeper way the Panamanian culture, which is pretty diverse, and in which we could find everything from Chinese to Native indigenous. Working for the international company, I've learned a lot about customer service, which of course is a great asset in this kind of business. I am oriented to provide a memorable experience when you come to our country. It's not just business, but being a good ambassador of this small but beautiful piece of land called Panama. - Tour Guide Across the country of Panama - Bachelor of Administration of Tourism Companies I am not licensed to drive my vehicle into the cruise port, but I can meet you at the ramp and walk you to the car.

Overview of your Panama City tour

This trip is all about culture and history, and the Embera community is one of the most ancient but representative entities of our beautiful country. Living next to rivers and lakes, they are a community that practice some fishing activities, and all this development takes place in the surroundings of the Panama Canal. A few years ago, they opened the doors of their culture to us, and so now tourism is also part of their way of living. Tropical rain forest, foliage and fauna makes this the perfect scenario for a very memorable intercultural exchange.
