Visitors to the Panama Canal Administration Building are welcomed into one of the most iconic and historically significant structures in the country. Perched on a hill overlooking the Pacific entrance of the Canal, the building offers sweeping views of the locks, the surrounding landscape, and the bustling maritime activity that defines this engineering marvel. Inside, guests can admire beautifully preserved architecture from the early 20th century, including grand staircases, marble floors, and elegant corridors that reflect the era of the Canal’s construction. One of the building’s most impressive features is its collection of large-scale murals painted by William B. Van Ingen.

Aurora was amazing! We gained so much valuable knowledge about the culture and history of both old and new Panama. Her insights made the experience truly unforgettable.

Very informative. Aurora was on time and we were ready to go. We were so glad she was doing the driving, the roads go every which way! She gave us so much history and was very interesting. We stopped and saw a sloth. Her knowledge of the Panama Canal was great.
Aurora was a fantastic guide. The tour lasted close to 6.5 hours. There were six of us so she arranged even a larger 12 passenger van. We toured all the sites and stopped for a very good affordable lunch. I booked her because of her reviews and it didn’t disappoint. I highly recommend this tour. 5 stars.
We booked a private full-day tour of all the Panama Canal sites, and Aurora was absolutely fantastic. She has a gift for explaining the complex history and mechanics of the Canal in a way that is clear, engaging, and easy to understand. Not only is she incredibly knowledgeable, but she is also very easy to spend the day with—personable, professional, and attentive. If you want to truly "get" the Canal and enjoy your day while doing it, ask for Aurora. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide!
A good way to see Panama. A private tour for the three of us! A little culture, a little religion, a little history and some local fruit and some chocolate. Aura was great. Always found us! Very attentive.
We had a wonderful tour of Panama. Aurora was an awesome tour guide. She adjusted our schedule to meet our needs. We visited Old Town including the craft market, church and other noteworthy sites. We also visited the Panama Canal museum and IMAX theater. She also stopped at a local fruit market to buy us tasty tropical fruits. I highly recommend!!
This experience was incredibly thorough and personalized. Carlos has extensive knowledge about Panamanian history and was so fun to spend the day with. He was patient, kind, and answered all of our questions. He made sure that we arrived just in time to see a tanker pass through the locks. This tour went at a great pace and he had delicious snacks for us. I would recommend this tour a million times over to friends and family. Thank you Carlos!
Perfect Way to See the Canal! As we only had two days in Panamá City this tour was the perfect way to see so much of this historic area. The IMAX movie at the Miraflores Locks was worth the price of admission! The night before, we were notified of a meet-up time change in order to catch a glimpse of the last ship passing through the locks that morning. So thoughtful! Really appreciated the water and snacks, quick shopping stop on Flamingo Island and tour of Casco Viejo. One of the highlights was visiting the Museo de Mola! Our guide, Aurora, was amazingly considerate at every stop.
Aurora can drive in between areas that you wouldn’t want to drive! She’ll answer questions and stop at any places you might want to see on the way.
We had an awesome time with Aurora — she very knowledgeable and we were able to customize our time for our interests— highly recommended
We had an incredible experience on the Luxury Car Tour with Aurora as our guide. From the very beginning, Aurora was prompt and professional—the tour started right at 9:00 AM with a convenient pickup from our location. The itinerary was thoughtfully planned and gave us a rich overview of Panama City’s highlights. We explored the charming historic streets of Casco Viejo, enjoyed a scenic drive to the islands where we had the chance to do some duty-free shopping, and wrapped up with a visit to the world-famous Panama Canal—hands down the highlight of the tour! Aurora’s knowledge of Panamanian history and culture was impressive. She shared fascinating, insightful stories that really brought each site to life. Riding in a luxury vehicle added an extra layer of comfort to an already exceptional day. If you’re looking for a top-tier tour experience in Panama City, this is it. Don’t miss it—and if you can, request Aurora!
This is the best private tour in Panama 🇵🇦. Don't hesitate to book this tour. Aurora provided great information about the history of her country and showed the good spots to see in the city. Picked me up at puntual time as stated on the voucher tour. She is also the best at taking photos with the best angles as well for memories. Thank you again Aurora! You did a wonderful job 🙌🙌🙌

Great tour guide, Aurora took us through the old city and stopped in a number of museums and historical spots along the way! She was very thoughtful and concern with us being able to see the canal at an ideal time by adjusting our schedule for the day to time things right for us to arrive at the canal to see ships coming through! With that said if you want to have a private tour for you and a small group definitely recommend Aurora. Next time we are in town will want to tour with her again.
We booked the luxury car tour and it exceeded our expectations. It was the perfect mix of entertaining and informative. Having Aurora as our guide was like hanging out with a friend. She was the perfect balance of giving us information and giving us time to explore on our own. She provided water and took us to a great fruit stand and recommended some great restaurants. She didn't know it was my birthday until someone called me. She was genuinely excited and that made me smile. I would not only recommend her but I would book her again if traveling with people who are visiting for the first time. I cannot say enough positive things about this experience!!!
Aurora was an amazing tour guide. She was a wealth of information and knows the best places to shop and eat. I would definitely recommend her as a guide in the future
This was a very memorable day. Our tour guide Carlos was very patient and informative. He made sure we were comfortable and enjoying the tour the entire time. Thanks Carlos for a great experience.
Our guide Carlos was kind, flexible, respectful knowledgeable & endearing. He took us all around Panama City & even stopped in a couple places where we could appreciate the historical sites without the tourist crowds. The communication was great & the extra amenities (water, fruit, snacks) were greatly appreciated. Thank you Carlos & Aurora, we would gladly experience another tour with you in Panama.
Jose the tour guide was amazing! I definitely recommend taking the tour with this tour guide. Myself and my family had a great time.
Carlos was fantastic. Very comfortable vehicle. Very nice man. He knew how to get you in and out of places with ease and knowledge. Even when traffic became an issue, he tag teamed the tour with his wife and she was a pleasure to be around. Thank you very much!
The tour was amazing. We came in late at night so Lola was kindly enough to start the tour a little later. During the tour she would explain about Panama. We visited different churches and areas with a fabulous view. The snacks and water she gave came on handy during the tour. Lola is an amazing tourguide. Very kind.
Our tour with Lola was outstanding from start to finish! Communication was seamless, pickup was prompt, and the vehicle was comfortable. Lola’s perfect English and deep knowledge of Panama’s history, the Panama Canal, and local culture made every stop engaging. Exploring Casco Viejo, we admired stunning churches with gold-plated altars and learned fascinating stories of their preservation. She even took us to the best souvenir shops and recommended an incredible Panamanian restaurant. A highlight was the Panama Canal, where she guided us to an observation deck for an unforgettable view of a ship crossing. She also helped us secure tickets to an IMAX 3D film on the canal’s history—an invaluable addition to our experience. To end the day, she led us on a breathtaking tour of the Amador Causeway, pointing out top restaurants and activities. Warm, knowledgeable, and passionate, Lola is the perfect guide to experience Panama. Highly recommend!
We had a very nice day! Aurora is a great guide, she tells a lot and takes many pictures. She took us to the old town and to the Panama canal.
Carlos listened to it and introduced us to the history of his city and the Panama Canal. He's an excellent guide.
