We had a great experience! Saul was our driver. He was on time, waiting for us at the Panama City airport. He was very professional and knowledgeable; giving us some history as we drove through Panana. Our drive to the Riu Playa Blanca was comfortable. The van was clean and air conditioning worked great. Saul spoke both English & Spanish as not everyone in our group speaks Soanish. Highly recommend!

the transfer from the airport to the resort was fine but lot of traffic but the return trip the driver was on his phone most of the trip and no using his hands free. I just retired from being a bus driver and this should not take place when your driving customers we paid for his time and should have gotten better service! unsafe is unsafe!!
Manuel met us at the airport. He was on time and had very good communication. The drive to Rio Hato was relaxing and he was a very good driver. Such professional and friendly service.
The trip was long but the driver was excellent very knowledgeable also a tour guide I would like to have him come take me back
Manuel Garcià did an amazing job getting us to the Riu Playa Blanca safely. The drive was 2hrs & I felt safe the entire way. He was very professional.
Great transportation, perfect size van to fit all 6 pieces of luggage and 2 sets of golf clubs. The driver was excellent drove at Great speed to get us there quickly and safe.
Driver was friendly, on time and very professional. He took great care to point out key site along our 2 hour ride to the hotel.
driver messages messaged me 2 hours before i landed to inform me where he will be waiting. very friendly, overall nice experience will use again
Thus far, Saul our driver was great! He was pleasant, professional and knowledgeable. I would recommend that anyone that wants private shuttle transportation that they request Saul as their driver if possible! Great experience so far.
The driver was very nice he was waiting for us at the airport . The vehicle was very spacious and the driver offered cold water
Our flight was 2 hours delayed and I didn't have phone service. Levi patiently waited at the airport for us and had cold waters waiting our arrival.
Driver right there waiting for us. Wish he would have spoken better English. It would have made the two hour drive more fun.
We were picked up on time at the airport and the resort and the drivers were safe. We'd use this service again!
The driver was communicating with me since the night before.Made my family comfortable that he would be there and in fact he was. With a big sign that had my name. He was kind and also gave us some country history. I would definitely use them again.
We used Layover Panama on the following three occasions on our March 2024 Panama vacation: - Panama City airport to Hilton Panama Hotel - Hilton Hotel to RIU Playa Blanca Hotel - RIU Hotel to Crowne Plaza Airport Hotel including Panama Canal tour In all three instances the Layover Panama guide/drivers were prompt, courteous, informative, and safe drivers. In addition Layover Panama was extremely responsive and easy to work with when planning this trip over the internet. I would heavily recommend them and will use them our on next trip to Panama!
Overall excellent! Both driver Rafael and Manuel awesome. They made sure we made it safely to our destination.
Excellent! Manuel was a great and safe driver. He did an excellent job driving us, and was really good at bringing us to our destination.
Manuel was wonderful! He was waiting for us with a sign and made the long (3hr) trip very enjoyable. He shared info about Panama which we appreciated since it was our first visit!
Driver was friendly and safe, provided us with interesting information along the way to our hotel and made the trip enjoyable.
He was wonderful driver! Abundant Grace Travels will continue to do business with this company and highly recommend all my clients to use this service.
Saul was great!!! He was so knowledgeable about Panama City… The van had, a/c and was very clean. He was on time and communicated with me to let me know he was at the airport. Great experience with these guys
Excellent driver very knowledgeable of the area and courteous! Great service 5 star definitely would recommend this operator
I rode with Panama Layover three times during my visit to Panamá, and each trip was pleasant, comfortable, and I felt safe. Levy was my driver for all three trips and he gave some great travelling tips and facts about Panamá. I would definitely recommend Layover Panama for transportation needs while in the country. Great service and affordable as well.
Our flight was delayed for almost two hours. We arrive at the airport to find that some of our luggage didn’t make it. We were the last ones to leave the luggage area and afraid that we lost our transfer. As we come out of through the door, there is our driver holding up a sign with my name on it. It was such a sign of relief!! He was the only person there! Waited that entire time for us. After everything we had been through, this was our high light as we don’t know how we would have gotten to our hotel that was 2 hours away and there were 10 of us traveling. Thank you!!!
Great ride. Manuel took us from the airport to the resort fast and safely. It was also the same experience going back to the airport from the resort. He even allowed us a bathroom break. Definitely recommend
The driver was knowledgeable and was on time for pick up. He was actually early, waited for us and during the drive knew a lot about the surrounding areas. Also provided water due to the length of the ride.
Walter was wonderful. He made sure we knew he was waiting at the airport and communicated the entire time.
Manual was great was great. Very helpful and knowledgeable. Will always recommend him. Great customer service.
This company is AMAZING!! All of the drivers had great customer service. They made sure that all of our pickups and drop offs were on time. Not to mention, it was a group of 10 persons with different arrival and departure times. They also dropped us to our catamaran day activity and took care of all of our luggage while we were gone for the day. I definitely recommend this company and would use them again if I return to Panama’. Thanks again for accommodating my group.
Levy, our driver was very patient as we had several flight delays that made our arrival much later than planned. He gave us a little Panamanian history while on the drive to our resort. He informed us about the long drive and was prepared to stop along the way so that we could stretch, etc. Levy was very helpful in helping us to arrange a tour and our return transport back to the airport for when we leave this beautiful island.
From the time we made our inquiry until the time that we left the country, Layover Panama was attentive, professional, and accommodating. The level of communication far exceeded the expectation and the attention to detail was unmatched. Our hotel offered transportation to the airport, but there was a mishap and Layover Panama, was able to jump in and offer assistance to help in our time of need. Our driver Manual communicated the night before our trip to confirm all details and needs.
Great experience. Landed with a whatsap msg from our driver giving specifics of where he'd be. Saul was fantastic he even gave us history of Panama as we drove and pointed out historic areas. It was like having a tour as well as a shuttle service. Can't wait for out experience back.
Saul was awesome! Kept us informed and got us to our destination safely……I would definitely recommend. And the Owner Rafael, very accommodating! Levy our driver on the way back was very helpful!
Manuel excellent driver. Unbelievable service. Some history of area provided . Will recommended to all visitors
Manwell,!our driver was excellent. He was timely, knowledgeable and friendly. We highly recommend using Viator
We used this shuttle to get to the Royal Decameron. Saul was a great driver, and got us there in a timely and safe manner. 10/10 would recommend
very polite drivers, prudent, know the way. we felt very safe throughout the journey, both on the way out and on the way back, in both cases with a lot of rain. The cars were very good, with air conditioning, everything working. It was worth the choice. no problems with schedules. Thank you so much for me and my mother in her wheelchair.
Manuel pick us up from the airport in Panama on time, he helped with all of our luggage. Once we got situated in the car he let us knw we had a 2hr drive and we could stop after 1hr for a break we chose for him to just drive since we were tired and had a long day of traveling. The drive was smooth as possible with him pointing out different sites and giving us a lil history lesson on his country. He was a very nice man honestly the nicest person we meet so far. Thank you Manuel
Levy was great! He was already there as soon as we landed, 2 hour trip to the hotel was fun, great conversation and felt safe. The day before our departure we decided we wanted to sightsee, so he arranged a tour for us last minute the day we were leaving. We got to sightsee & eat lunch at a local spot before being dropped off at the airport. Awesome driver, and tour guide. Thank you for making our trip easy breezy!
Edwin was our driver and he was knowledgeable, kind, and made us feel safe and like we were in the best of hands. We had a two hour ride from the airport to our resort and it went by in a flash. We couldn’t recommend him more. Thank you Edwin!!!
The transport was amazing! We were picked up at the airport on time, and was given a brief tour of what we passed on our way to the resort. The resort was about two hours, so it was a while, and it was expected. The car was nice and comfortable both trips. Our ride back to the airport was even better than the ride to the resort. Our driver was so knowledgeable on the history of Panama, that it kind of became a history lesson as we drove through. Both of our drivers were amazing! They both were very knowledgeable, extreme nice and welcoming. I felt very safe in both vehicles. I would definitely book with them again. Communication with them was seamless via WhatsApp. They also sent sms messages as well as messages on WhatsApp to ensure that everything was communicated properly. 5 stars across the board! Thank you so much for making this an even more memorable trip. See you soon!
Great experience. Long drive made comfortable. Concerned and cautious driver .. Explained everything that was happening during the drive. Experienced driver.
My favorite experience during this trip is my driver Manual Garcia. He was extremely patient, pleasant,punctual and kind. My kids and I was chanting his name when we realized he was our driver back to the airport. He is a gem.
We used gettransfer.com, service was great and so was the price. Drivers were patient and kind. We travelled with 5 kids and 4 adults. They gave us time to get together and were very professional. Highly recommended!
Timely, polite, and interactive. The service provided by R&E Transfer was absolutely fantastic, I would recommend them to anybody needing to traverse the beautiful landscape of Panamà.
I enjoyed the ease of having such a on time service to and from the airport to our destination. Viator travel are the best. My grandma mom sister and I thank you!
Hello! I just wanted to thank you all for your driving service! It was amazing. On our way to our hotel our driver stopped me and my boyfriend to a nice Panamanian restaurant. My driver when leaving Rafael was VERY GREAT! He was very informative and polite. Made my last little bit of time in Panama fun and even stopped us at the Panama Sign just before getting to the airport.
Our shuttle driver was informative and even offered suggestions for our trip. Our drive was 2 hours so he stopped for a bathroom break.
We had a Pleasant ride, with a friendly driver. The price was reasonable. I would recommend this service to a friend.
The driver was great. The trip from the airport to the hotel was long but the driver and cleanliness of the van made the trip bearable.
