Description

Embark on a deep journey through the heart of Panama, where modern engineering meets centuries of history. Your experience kicks off at the Miraflores Visitor Center, the best spot to check out the Panama Canal. Here, you'll not only see the imposing Neopanamax ships pass by, but you'll also understand the magnitude of this engineering masterpiece through its interactive exhibition and direct observation of the lock system. We'll continue to the Balboa area to admire the imposing Canal Administration Building, a 1914 architectural gem that tells the story of the canal's golden age of construction. After immersing ourselves in the administrative history, we'll head to the Amador Causeway. This scenic tour of the Naos, Perico, and Flamenco islands will give you the best views of the city's skyline and the Bridge of the Americas, with a mandatory stop at Panama's iconic photo spot. Local culture comes to life at the Craft Market, where you'll have a direct encounter with the talent of Panamanian artisans, ideal for those looking for authentic pieces and traditional textiles. The tour's climax is in the Old Town (a World Heritage Site). We'll stroll through its cobbled alleys, visiting historic churches and vibrant squares, while discovering how the city was reborn after pirate attacks. To finish with total flexibility, you can choose between immersing yourself in a day of shopping in the most exclusive shopping centers in the city or enjoying a comfortable transfer back to your hotel. This tour is designed for those who want to capture the total essence of Panama—its past, its present, and its commercial dynamism—in a single unforgettable day.
