Het is een katholieke kerk gelegen in de oude stad van Panama City in Panama. Het werd ingewijd in 1796, hoewel de bouwwerkzaamheden begonnen in 1688, 108 jaar eerder. Het werd ontworpen door de militaire ingenieur Nicolás Rodríguez. We stoppen en geven uitleg over de kerk. Inschrijven is optioneel aangezien er een toegangsprijs is van twee dollar.
Het is een klein, gezellig plein in de historische wijk Casco Viejo, met een buste van Karel V, keizer van het Heilige Roomse Rijk, die in de 16e eeuw opdracht gaf voor het eerste overzicht van een isthmische route.
De platte boog van de Santo Domingo kerk diende om te bewijzen dat er weinig seismische activiteit in Panama is
Het is een van de meest populaire toeristische gebieden in Panama City; de locatie en koloniale stijl maken het een geweldige plek om een aangename dag door te brengen. Terwijl je rondloopt, zie je gebouwen uit verschillende tijdperken.
Het is de naam die gewoonlijk wordt gegeven aan het geheel van werken die de muren rond Plaza de Francia in Panama-Stad vormen.

We squeezed this tour into a long layover we had on the way back from Chile and we were so happy we did. Our guide Jorge was very informative and the company was very professional. Everything went smoothly. We learned so much and had a great time. Importantly for us the company monitors the ship traffic and does their best to time tje visit to the canal so you can see the real life operations in practice. An amazing and fun afternoon to learn more about Panama, the canal, and the old city and its history. Highly recommend.
Our guide was nice, punctual, and knowledgeable, but the tour itself was definitely not worth the price. The online itinerary is not accurate, and the experience felt very rushed. This is mostly a drive-around tour where the guide talks while you stay in the car. You do not really get time to walk around, explore, or enjoy the stops. He did stop for pictures when we asked, which we appreciated, but this is not a leisure tour. You will not see as much as the description makes it seem. Also, even though my hotel was listed for pickup and my booking confirmed pickup, they added a $40 pickup fee. Since this was supposed to be a private tour, I do not understand why I would be expected to go to another hotel for pickup. If you are okay staying in the car most of the time and just want to get to the locks early, this may work for you. But if you want a relaxed private tour where you can actually experience the places listed, I would not recommend this one.
Dear Mrs Elle: this is our first time in 17 years that we receive a misleading review like this. Partial refund: first reason you gave was unexpected medical situations and second reason on a different request was that we did not get to the places marked on the itinerary and that you were even rushed. Nothing close to the truth! Your tour started on time and you were dropped at your hotel as planned after 5.5 hours. French plaza is closed due remodeling, so, nobody can get in; not only us! It is out of our control. All of you attended the tour, all! No one was announced as sick or injured!! I am sorry that you did not read, when you were booking, that if you are outside of Panama City there would be an xtra charge for roundtrip transportation, not the real cost! We did what we promised and more as we always do! Thanks Tony
I enjoyed this tour. Ronald was a very knowledgeable tour guide who was happy to share not only knowledge of the canal, but of Panama generally. Recommended unreservedly.
Great way to learn all about the Panama canal and Panama City. Wear gym shoes, light weight clothing and sunglasses. There are upcharges for the canal so bring cash or card. All worth it!
Unable to go on tour. Got called to leave earlier only to find out that pickup was not an option at Crown Plaza Airport Hotel. Asked to get dab to another place. Made arrangements at hotel I was in for a cheaper price. Mind you, I was further away.
Hi Mr. Timothy! Let me explain how the things really happened please! We called you in order to start earlier and leave the traffic in the city away from us on the way back: totally true!! When the guide called you because he was 5 minutes earlier at the hotel that you typed in your booking, you told him that you were in another location, Crown Plaza, but, not in the city; you where at the airport. When you are booking there is info about pick ups locations and clearly it states that, even that we can do it, we do not offer pick ups at the airport are unless you ask for it and there is an additional fee. We asked you to meet us in the city cause the tour was about to start and there were others waiting for us, you refused to do it! We did not do your booking, you made a mistake at the moment of typing your hotel location cause you did not read properly the address that is clearly shown by the booking system. Sorry that you were not able to attend to our great tour, but, it was not our fault. Thanks Tony
The tour guild is very knowledgeable. He told us the history of Panama Canal. He told us the history of Panama City.
We had an outstanding half-day tour of the Panama Canal and Panama City. Our tour guide was absolutely amazing—friendly, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable about Panama's history, culture, and landmarks. The tour was well organized and provided a fascinating look at both the engineering marvel of the Panama Canal and the highlights of beautiful Panama City. We learned so much and truly appreciated the guide's thorough knowledge and passion for sharing information about the country. This was one of the highlights of our trip, and we highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Panama!
I was picked up by Roland, in his big Panama hat, sharp at the time decided. Weather didn’t seem to be on our side. By the time we were approaching the canal, it was pouring so heavily that we could hardly see the road. Roland though was confident, having known his country so much better than we do, that the rain won’t last. He drove slowly , showed us everything on the way , stopped the car so we could still take pictures from the car itself , explained the history of the various areas we visited. And true to his word, the rain stopped! Had a wonderful Panama Canal experience. The tour didn’t seem rushed. He had the tickets purchased before hand and thank god for that because there were two busses who arrived and there was a huge line for tickets! He made us skip all of that and straight to the viewing point. I think the tour lasted behind the stipulated time coz of the rain but not once did he complain. All in all, had a lovely time and he promptly dropped us all back too
Guide very informative. Enjoyed the canal information, and watched a freighter go through. Traffic was bad, but liked Casco Viejo or old town.
Thanks so much for the review! I'm glad your guide kept things informative and that you got to see a freighter make its way through—it really is an unforgettable sight. Even though that Panama traffic tried to slow us down, I'm thrilled you still thoroughly enjoyed exploring the charm of Casco Viejo! Thank you so much for choosing us, and we look forward to hosting you again! Best, Tony
Great to see the vessels come in and out watching the water line drop and rise. Panama Canal a marvel engineering achievement!
Thanks so much for the review! It really is an incredible engineering marvel, and there’s nothing quite like watching those massive ships rise and drop right before your eyes as the water moves. It’s a sight you never forget! We're so grateful for your trust in us and can't wait to welcome you back next time! Best, Tony
