Amazing experience in Panama Our full day Panama Canal tour with Gabriel was amazing!! We got to visit a little village named: Mi Pueblito, in which we saw a replica of the original homes and lifestyle of many years ago in the country of Panama. As a bonus we got to see a couple of sloths in their original habitat hanging from a palm tree!! Next we went to the old city!! What a delight that was! It was beautiful and charming! Next we got to have lunch next to the beach, at a seafood restaurant!! We loved it! Finally we got to go to the Panama Canal!! It was an amazing experience seeing a huge boat going through all the different levels! I highly recommend this tour!!!!

Great times with Gabriel We had an 8-hour layover in Panama between flights, so we booked a private tour with myself, my husband, and our 7-year-old son to see some sights. It was a very rainy day, but Gabriel made the best of things and gave us a great time. We got to see the Panama visitors centre with the colourful Panama sign, historical sights in the city, and the canal. The traffic was brutal, which limited what we were able to see, but Gabriel navigated the traffic like a real pro. He was charming and friendly, and was able to answer the many questions we asked about the history, culture, flora, and fauna of Panama City. The only downside is that we wanted our tour to last longer! Thank you so much!

El Valle our guide, Enrique, was extremely knowledgable, helpful and fun! Having a private, customizable tour made it so much easier and relaxing to see the sites at our own pace. El Valle is absolutely gorgeous. Danny organized everything and was super responsive when booking. Really happy with every aspect of this tour.

Great experience! We booked a city tour with Enrique and a snorkeling tour with Sam and each were absolutely fantastic. Both tours were truly customizable and the guides were happy to accommodate our requests. Everyone at this company, including Danny whom organized each tour, were professional, courteous, and went out of their way to ensure we had a special experience.

A fun day in Panama It was a great way to see the Panama city, and our guide, Edwing and Sam made the the day trip even more enjoyable. We were the first group arriving at the canal and therefore had a front row seat to watch a ship traveling through the canal. The Imax movie was good and can be better with a new IMAX screen. Driving around landmarks of Panama, our guide peppers us with little stories and fun facts which made the sight seeing into a memorable experience. The walk in the Old Town aka French Quarter was to witness the passage of time - the ruins of the past, the restored Catholic Churches, the monuments and the mixed architecture styles. At our request, our guide took us to a small coffee shop to zip a cup of nicely brewed coffee - icing on the cake. Chen's Group from Toronto Canada

Enjoyable private tour Had a great 1/2 day tour with Danny. Due to passport issues we had to go back to the hotel to get my passport to be stamped at the marina office (I arrived into Panana on a sailboat) at Flamingo Island which we had just left. Being a private tour Danny easily made the adjustment for me. He has a wealth of knowledge of Panama and the canal and made it all very interesting for me.

Panama City Sightseeing and canal tour (Private full day) We recently took the Panama City Sightseeing and Canal tour with them and I couldn't have been more impressed with the entire experience. Our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about the history and culture of Panama, and made the tour even more interesting and engaging. The sights we saw on the tour were breathtaking, from the stunning skyline of Panama City to the awe-inspiring engineering marvel of the Panama Canal. The tour was well-organized and ran smoothly, with plenty of opportunities for taking photos and asking questions. Overall, I highly recommend Panama Your Way for anyone looking to explore the beauty and wonder of Panama. Their attention to detail and commitment to customer satisfaction really sets them apart, and I can't wait to book another tour with them soon. Thank you, Panama Your Way, for an unforgettable experience!

Amazing trip My travel partner and I recently took the Panama City and Canal full-day tour, and it was an outstanding experience. Our guide Sam was really good, and we were impressed by the quality of the tour. We were taken to all the must-see sights in Panama City, including the Miraflores Locks at the Panama Canal as well as the historic district of Casco Viejo. The tour was well-paced, and we never felt rushed at any point which was really important for us as we like to take our time when visiting a new country. They also provided us with excellent recommendations for local restaurants and bars, which added a fun and unique touch to our trip. So based on our experience, we highly recommend Panama Your Way for anyone visiting Panama.
