If you’re visiting Panama, don’t miss the Panama Canal and Panama City Tour with Chris! This approximately 5-hour tour was the perfect blend of history, sightseeing, and local culture. Chris was an exceptional guide: engaging, knowledgeable, and passionate about sharing Panama’s rich history. He made the experience both educational and enjoyable while creating a relaxed, welcoming, and fun atmosphere that made everyone feel comfortable. Everything was well organized, and we visited some of Panama’s most iconic attractions while learning so much along the way. There was plenty of time to take in the sights, ask questions, and enjoy the experience without ever feeling rushed. The tour offered excellent value for money, the price was definitely worth it for such a memorable experience. I would highly recommend Chris to anyone looking for a first-class tour of Panama City and the Panama Canal. You won’t be disappointed!

This is a great tour. Ronald was an excellent tour guide, and it was very informative. I recommend this for anybody looking to learn more about the city.
Guide was great! Well informed and adjusted schedule for our needs beautifully. Couldn’t have been better.
I recommend the tour. Chris picked us up at the hotel and from that moment the adventure began. Super punctual. He began to tell us the story of ancient Panama, as we drove to our destination, passed by the Bridge of the Americas, took us to a typical place to buy some souvenirs and then to lunch, visited the locks of the canal and all the coordination went perfectly. Very comfortable vehicle.
Richard is very knowledgeable about the history of the Panama Canal and Panama. This is a tour that I will do again and I’ll bring some friends to enjoy this informative tour. I will study more about Panama because Richard has sparked something in me that I am very interested in.
I always like to do a city tour first thing when I travel. My adult daughters and I booked this tour for the day after we arrived in Panama. From booking to pickup Chris was in communication with me. Our tour was only 5 people which was great. Chris was a fountain of information. Super friendly. Answered all my questions. Best photographer ever. The tour is great. We got to stop at several places. One of my favorites was the monument built to recognize the Chinese people in Panama because I hadn’t seen anything about it in my research. We also got to tour a government building by chance. A woman gave him a flyer about it being open while we were walking around and off we went. It was an unexpected addition to our tour. He translated the tour guide for us. I loved that he added it on the spot. It lengthened our tour but was a great addition. There are so many Panamá canal & city tours but you won’t regret booking with Chris.
I had a fantastic time on the Panamá City tour! Our guide, Chris, was absolutely lovely—friendly, knowledgeable, and spoke excellent English. He made the history and culture of the city come alive with his insights and stories. The tour was well-organized, and we got to see all the major highlights at a comfortable pace. Highly recommend if you’re looking to explore Panamá City with a great guide!
We had an amazing tour of Panama City with Ruis as our guide! From start to finish, he was knowledgeable, friendly, and incredibly passionate about sharing the rich history and culture of the city. He made every stop feel meaningful and brought the stories of Panama to life in such an engaging way. Ruis was also very attentive to our needs, making sure we were comfortable and was enjoying the experience. He answered our questions and even shared some great local tips and hidden gems we wouldn’t have found on our own. This trip was truly one of the highlights of our trip, and Ruis made it unforgettable. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Panama City, and ask for Ruis as your guide. Kenneita & Family
Chris was an outstanding guide. My wife has mobility issues and requires a mobile wheelchair. He was extremely patient and helpful in loading and unloading her chair and very considerate in ensuring her access to all stops. His knowledge of the history and culture of Panama was encyclopedic and he made the entire tour extremely enjoyable and instructional. We highly recommend this tour for a complete Panama experience in one day. OUTSTANDING TOUR and EXCEPTIONAL guide.
