Your tour will be timed to ensure that you see the canal during the busiest hours to witness the countless ships being lifted or lowered 16 meters in two distinct steps. Enjoy the view on the locks from a sheltered terrace and listen to the expert commentary of your guide. To complete the visit of the canal, visit the Miraflores Visitor Center and Museum. After the visit to the canal, continue with your guide to the Amador Causeway, a road that connects three islands in the Pacific Ocean, offering magnificent views of the canal on one side and the skyline of Panama City on the other.
