During the visit to the canal, participants will have the opportunity to learn about its history, operation, and witness the transit of ships through the locks. Afterward, the tour will continue to the charming Casco Viejo, the old town of Panama City. Here, visitors will explore cobblestone streets, admire colonial architecture, and visit historical and cultural sites such as Independence Square and the Metropolitan Cathedral.
