Perfect layover tour! We had a layover in Panama so figured we should make the most of it and it was absolutely worth it! Our guides name is Aldo and he had so much history and knowledge to offer on all the sites we were scheduled to see. There was so much to see that we’ll probably go back! Thank you, Aldo!

Panama City's Highlights in One Action-Packed Day We had a wonderful day with our guide Edwin. Panama Your Way arranged pick up at our hotel in Rio Hato and Edwin met us at the canal. He was very knowledgable about the canal and Panama in general. After watching a large boat passing through the Mira Flores locks and the engines positioning it, we watched the IMAX film (a great overview). From there, we headed to Ancon Hill, hiked to the top, saw 2 sloths (!! a highlight) and a toucan then were ready for lunch. La Sirena lunch at the causeway was fine. Off to Casco Viejo (Panama City's old town) for strolling, sightseeing and shopping and a fantastic iced local coffee. The tour packed a lot in to a single well organized day - highly recommend!

Knowledgeable Guide with great stories Our guide (Aldo) spent the day showing us the sights and providing us with context. His love of the country and pride shone through and his knowledge really helped us understand the history of Panama. He was flexible with his time and we never felt rushed.

Great way to see Panama City with teens We had a wonderful experience on our full day private tour. Tommy and Armando were fantastic and timed everything perfectly from pickup to getting us to Ancon Hill before the heat really picked up as well as timing the Panamá Canal movie and visit so that we had the best opportunity to see everything in action. Tommy was extremely knowledgeable which was appreciated by the history buffs in our group. Highly recommend pre-paying the canal tour as the ticket line is long.
