Fun and informative way to spend a layover in Panama City
This is a great way to spend the day if you have a long layover at Tocumen. We got to walk around Casco Viejo, learn local history, see the locks on the canal in action, and check out the BioMuseum to learn about local nature. Our guide Miguel was easy to communicate with, organized, flexible, funny, and very knowledgeable about the city and country. Great time, great value for money.

Nice tour
My guide Gustavo was very good. He communicated with me about where to pick me up. He then took me on a nice layover tour to show me what he could within my short timeframe. I want to come again for a longer start and have him take me around. Make sure to download Whatsapp, it will help.

Great tour and relaxed guide, highly customizable itinerary.
Gustavo was a great guide, friendly and relaxed. I could customize the tour to my liking: since I wanted to spend my time mainly at the canal, we skipped other parts of the tour. Traffic was a bit heavy, but Gustavo knew all the detours to get me back to the airport with plenty of time for my connecting flight.
I will definitely book this tour again, when I have my next stop-over in Panama.

Amazing Layover Tour in Panama City with Miguel!
We had an incredible layover tour in Panama City thanks to Miguel. From the moment he picked us up, he was kind, charming, and incredibly attentive. He took us through the city, shared fascinating history facts, and made sure we experienced the best highlights in the short time we had.
We were hungry so we asked Miguel to take us somewhere we could try local food, he brought us to a local lunch spot, guided us through the Panama Canal, and still got us back to the airport with plenty of time to spare. His knowledge and professionalism made the whole experience feel smooth and enjoyable.
If you’re looking for an stress-free and memorable way to spend your layover in Panama City, ask for Miguel, he truly made our day unforgettable!

Nice Way to Spend a Layover in Panama
I had a very early arrival flight in Panama, with a long layover and I was concerned about not being able to make the most of my time. Miguel fortunately offered tours which began early in the morning, picking me up from the airport at 6:00 AM. He was very kind, knowledgeable, and professional, I learned a lot about Panama in my short time there.
The Miraflores visitor center opens at 8:00 am and by that time most of the ships have passed through the canal (until 1:00 pm) , so try to get there early and book your tickets in advance. I was fortunate enough to be advised by Miguel on how to buy tickets in advance so I could skip the lines and see the boat passing through the canal.
Overall, I enjoyed this experience.

Excellent tour
What a great day! Miguel picked us up right on time at our hotel. As we traveled throughout the city he talked about the history, politics and facts and figures of his country. He was very knowledgeable and spoke perfect English. We enjoyed many points of interest including the canal. It was an excellent way to spend the day and Miguel was a super nice guy.
