Our guide, Alex, was absolutely fantastic!! Friendly, funny, personable, knowledgeable and a very proud Panamanian!!!
We learned more about Panamanian culture in one afternoon than we had thoughtout our entire lives. The tour itself was fantastic, with our guide Alex being the star of the show, he gave us all the history and anecdotes you could imagine and opened up personally about his own experiences living in Panama and showed us all different sides of the area. Alex certainly has a great personality and was easy to spend an afternoon with.
We would recommend this outing anytime someone wants a real tour of Casco Viejo and Panama in general.

Alex was a fabulous guide! personal, delightfully informative, a natural ambassador for his home town. We learned so much from him. We loved to hear about the history, local anecdotes and how life in Panama truly works. Having his personal perspective really enriched our sense of the city and cultural life.

We will be on a cruise and would like to take this tour. I know there is pickup at the port available. My question is do you get dropped off at the port after tour is concluded? If not, where is drop-off point and how to we get back to the ship?
My husband and I have a 6 hour layover here and we were wondering if this tour is something that would work for us. We’d love to explore the area while we are there. Is this feasible to do with our time there?
