Francisco s a really kind and knowledable guide. The tour was done at a good pace so we had time at each stop. It was a great combination of both walking and driving through the city.

Started off a little shaky due to pickup time mix up, but Oscar came through and started dropping his tour knowledge on me. Very professional and Awesome Tour Guide. Ask for Oscar!!
Francisco was waiting for us with a sign at the airport, so there was no problem at all meeting him. We went first to the Old City (where we did a little walking tour and then stopped for a traditional Panamanian lunch), then to the Panama Canal, and finally to the Panama sign out on the Amador Causeway. Throughout, Francisco did a great job giving us history and answering our questions. We really appreciated that he never seemed to be rushing us, and we also appreciated his tips at the canal. We weren't sure whether to watch the movie first or go to the viewing deck first, and he advised going to the viewing deck because there was a vessel that was about to pass through. Seeing the vessel pass through the lock was amazing!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Alex was an absolutely amazing tour guide! From the moment our tour began, he made us feel welcomed and excited to explore Panama. He took his time showing us various locations, sharing detailed historical insights that brought each place to life. Alex made sure we had all the time we needed to truly take in the sights and understand the rich culture and vibrant spirit of the Panamanian people. His passion and knowledge were evident in every story he told. If you're looking for someone who is informative, takes great pics, patient, and genuinely dedicated to creating a meaningful experience, Alex is the guide for you. Highly recommend!
Marriott is very good guider, he told us a lot about Panama and the canal. We learned a lot about Panama, and the canal, liked it very much. His job is well done.
I am a bit dissapointed, it was supposed to be the city and panama canal tour. 1 day before the tour, the company whats app me and told me that to do the canal tour there was an additional fee. My group decided not to pay the additional fee, so we didn't get a proper canal tour. But the guide did a great job on the city tour
Great overview of few Panama City highlights: historical village, Miraflores locks, Amador causeway and Casco Viejo, which we swapped for longer trip to Amador. Very personable and knowledgeable guide made this tour a pleasure. Great lunch at the tip of Amador Causeway close to the brand new cruise terminal. Highly recommended tour as an introduction to the city.
Francisco is courteous, knowledgeable, and speaks very good English. He answered our historical questions in both Casco Viejo and at the Canal site. He was helpful and a great guide. We really enjoyed the tour, so we booked another one!
We were picked up on time with nice communication. The car was small and older. Definitely more of a taxi experience with some tour explanations.
My tour guide was great, she arrived early. She knew a lot about the history of Panama. She really helped in capturing memories while there by taking lots of pictures. It was an overall great experience.
Amazing experience! Our tour guide Francisco was very knowledgeable and patient. We definitely would recommend! Gracias!
Our trip was amazing! Ivan was a superb guide, he is very professional, knowledgeable, attentive and he made sure our trip was comfortable and very enjoyable. He went the extra mile and made us feel valued and spoiled. He is a very good and safe driver with a lot of knowledge about the area and the route. We will definitely recommend Ivan as well as this tour to anyone who is willing to listen.
Bestpanamatours was awesome, very informative and enjoyable! Tommy is a kind and helpful host and makes a conscious effort to give you a wonderful experience of Panamá. We only had a short two day layover in hike traveling and this was an excellent way to see some of what Panamá is about.
Francisco was our personal tour guide for the day. We couldn't ask for a better one. Francisco was patient, knowledgeable, and fun to be around. He took us to all the hot spots where the tourists go for all the great photo ops, and shopping spots. I would definitely recommend booking him for a tour if you are ever in the area or disembarking from a cruise ship to sight see. He's the best.
We really had good experience with Driver Ruben, he explained all our questions and explained everything so clearly, thank you
Our guide was Rigoberto. He was very pleasant, but his English was extremely limited. He drove us all over the city and showed us many things, but he did not give us information or what we consider a tour. He simply gave us a taxi ride, in his taxi, with little conversation, even though we specifically asked for an English speaking tour guide. I wouldn’t spend the money for this again.
We enjoyed the day with Francisco, very polite and he gave us lots of information about Panamanian History 🫶🏾
This tour was money well spend. Francisco was the best tour guide I could ever asked for. He was very detailed and patient and have great knowledge about the history and areas we visited. I would definitely be coming back to Panama soon and I’ll do this over again. It was amazing.
This private tour started started out great but I was disappointed that I didn't get to watch the 45min movie abt Panama and be a part of the boat experience at one of the spots because we were late. By the time we arrived, that tour had already gone and I was told that I had to come back at 2pm for the next one. My private tour guide tried to make up for it by taking me to other locations to take pictures. At the end, it was an ok tour but my suggestion is for the driver to know when the boat tours are scheduled for so that the persons on the tour don't miss it and miss out on that experience. After all, it is being offered as part of the private tour experience.
I visited Panama in December 2025 and, from the moment they picked me up at the airport, everything was a wonderful experience. Each tour allowed me to see beautiful places, enjoy incredible landscapes, and experience special moments. I want to highlight the excellent service, kindness, and professionalism of the guides, who made each tour even more pleasant. I felt very well taken care of throughout the entire experience and I am taking home beautiful memories of this trip. Without a doubt, I recommend this agency to everyone who wishes to visit Panama and enjoy quality service. Thank you so much for making my visit such a special experience! 🇵🇦✨ I hope to return very soon and experience new adventures with you! ❤️✈️
Excellent experience, at a good price and with careful and delicate attention. Even more so with one of the passengers with physical limitations.
Excellent Transfer Service to and from Panama airports. Both Tucumen and Gelabert. And visits to the Old Town and the Canal. With good recommendations and interesting information. They also took us with accurate data to the Colón free zone. So we felt safe and with great kindness to make the crossings very friendly.
Super recommended. It is one of the excursions that is an obligation to do in Panama. Alvaro, our guide, was very expeditious and unwrapped!!
Seeing that we would stay 10h at the airport, we decided to take advantage of a small tour to Panama, I contacted other companies, but only this responded skillfully, we gave our limit of time and money and they presented a good proposal, the very friendly driver Álvaro introduced us well to Panama, talking about the culture and historical data, but also sometimes as in this photographer. Very satisfied.
The compliance, the guidance and overall the whole experience was wonderful. My family and I are very grateful... More than recommended for tours
Beautiful walk through the old town..shame we didn't go to see the locks..no boat passing we saw a boat approaching elsewhere
Great experience! A very complete tour. We had to see the Panama Canal in operation, the old town of the city and the unrivalled view of the city from the Amador Causeway. Ávaro attended us wonderfully and was very professional in his service. Fully recommended if you have a long stopover in Panama.
Excellent service from Ruben and Francisco. A friend recommended I contact Ruben and the communication was very good and clear. I had an 8-hour stopover in Panama and Ruben squared everything for Francis to pick me up and show me the historic center and the canal. Francis was an excellent guide and showed me the most important places in the historic center. He also recommended a very good restaurant where I ate an exquisite fish. Then we went to the canal and we could see everything. It was a pleasant experience and I hope to come back next year to spend several days and visit several of the places Francis recommended. I recommend the company. They are very responsible, flexible and know what they do.
A very cordial attention from Ruben was kind enough to reach us the wallet with our documentation that I had forgotten in his vehicle.
Excellent tour, taken in Panama City, the Alvaro Guide, excellent Guide, shared story about Panama, ancient case.
Loved the experience! I recommend 100 percent to Guide Alvaro, it was super personal the tour, I knew the most important thing about Panama! I was very pleased with the excursion. I'd definitely contact them again.
Beautiful experience, very nice tour. Excellent Guide! Very interesting. I'd hire the services again. Thank you.
Very good the Info provided by the Guide. All very interesting and beautiful walk! Super recommended to know the city since its history and do not miss the visit of the Panama Canal!
Excellent attention and explanation About Panama, its history and the canal! If I return to Panama I would not hesitate to choose them again!
Excellent the whole tour, very happy, complied with everything agreed. Fully recommended. The impeccable bus, Reuben the Guide the best will and predisposition.
Very good service, everything excellentee I loved. They took me to the canal and through panama city and great service. 10 out of 10
We arrived before the agreed time and our guide was already there. The modern and clean car. On the way to the canal he showed us different points of Panama. We visited the canal, beautiful, then we went to the part of the waterfront, always giving us time to walk around and take photos. We went to the old town, he also allowed us to tour, told us about the history and we entered several points of interest. I highly recommend it for anyone who has a stopover and in particular this company. It was a pleasure to have traveled with you! Hoping to come back :)
Very good treatment and good information with our guide Francisco. Highly recommend this company! I would definitely hire them again.
We had a long layover in Panama. It occurred to us to contact PanaTraslados for a private tour of the city + a shopping tour. It was definitely the best thing we could have done!!!! Rubén met us at the airport, showed us the city, told us about history, advised us and treated us with incredible patience and warmth! After a super full day, he returned us to the airport. Panama will definitely be among our next destinations. We will always recommend them!!! Thank you PanaTranslados. Thanks Ruben!!! 💙
During my stopover hours I managed to see the main points of Panama City with the guide Álvaro. Thank you very much, everything was great, excellent service and explanation of the tourist spots.
Honestly, very convenient and effective attention, Ruben received our call at a time when we arrived with a layover of more than 7 hours and I presented my concerns and interests to him and immediately the search for availability was carried out with his drivers and they sent me to Francisco. At the indicated time, the driver arrived at my terminal and we began the tour, arriving back at the scheduled time. Francisco, with his kindness and good information, was able to let us know that we had to discover Panama and we soon decided to return again. A very personalized and professional experience
Super recommended, we are Mexican, the truth is that we had an incredible experience on a long stopover in Panama. We are looking forward to returning and getting to know the country more. We made the most of our time, our guide was very friendly and explained each place to us, very reliable since we were a couple of friends and very quick attention when contacting them to book the tour. I highly recommend it, it is worth going out and getting to know it, whether on a stopover with little time or more days.
Excellent service from Rubén in every sense. We learned a lot about this beautiful city and the history of the country. and we saw the Canal operate.
We did the City Tour with the Panama Canal and the arrival and departure transfers from Tocumen Airport. All highly recommended. Both Alvaro and Jesús were very attentive and very professional, and made us feel at home. When we return to Panama, we will definitely contract with this company again.
Super recommended, make the most of the stopover time in Panama, Álvaro was super punctual, I explain every detail of the city. I hope to return with more time 🇵🇦
Excellent Service and attention, especially from Alvaro, always so attentive, pleasant and told us much about his country, very grateful for this beautiful tour of beautiful Panama.
Excellent attention, our guide Alvaro very predisposed and punctual. We stopped in Panama for a few hours and were able to know thanks to this Service much of the city. Recommended 100%
All perfect. Better Enterprise doesn't have. My guide super attentive and friendly. It took me to many places that I wanted to go!!!
Excellent city tour within Panama City and very good quality Service, very attentive, punctual, of the best services I have received 👏
