Activity itinerary

Panama City

Embark on an adventure as we begin our tour by gathering all our participants scattered throughout the vibrant Panama City. Get ready for a day filled with excitement and exploration!

Clayton (Pass by)

As we approach the Panama Canal, our guide will highlight the historic significance of the former Clayton Base. Once a vital military installation, it played a crucial role during the US presence in Panama. Today, this area has transformed into Ciudad del Saber, a vibrant hub for education, innovation, and culture. This evolution showcases Panama's commitment to progress and development. While this isn't an official stop, the fascinating history and the journey from military base to knowledge centre make it a noteworthy point of interest on our tour!

Miraflores Visitor Center

1h 45m
Admission ticket not included

Welcome to the most exciting stop of the entire tour! This is where the magic happens! Although the order of our visit may shift based on boat traffic through the canal locks, you can bet your bottom dollar that we’ll kick off our morning adventure here. Watching ships navigate the locks is like witnessing a live performance of engineering marvels! So, whether we start here or dive in later, prepare for a thrilling experience that will leave you amazed by the incredible workings of the Panama Canal. Get ready for some unforgettable moments!

Monumento a Goethals

At our stop in front of the Panama Canal Administration Building and the Goethals Monument, you'll be transported back to the rich history of the canal's construction and the visionaries behind it. The striking architecture of the administration building, coupled with the tribute to Major George W. Goethals, the chief engineer of the canal, creates a fascinating backdrop for stories of innovation and perseverance. However, please note that this stop is sensitive to traffic conditions. Our guide may decide to skip this stop if they believe it could disrupt our itinerary. Your understanding is appreciated as we navigate the best path for our adventure!

Amador Causeway (Calzada de Amador)

During our Half Day City & Panama Canal Tour, we’ll take you to the stunning Amador Causeway, a scenic gem that offers breathtaking views! One of the highlights is our 15-minute stop at Flamenco Island. Here, you can capture the perfect photo with the iconic Panama sign—it's a must for your Instagram feed! Enjoy a quick refreshment break, with bathroom facilities available, and treat yourself to some delicious ice cream. Don’t forget to explore the duty-free shopping options, too! As you soak in the views, marvel at the impressive skyline of the city, the southern entrance to the Panama Canal, and the majestic Bridge of the Americas. It’s a stop that truly combines relaxation and stunning scenery!

Casco Viejo

Get ready to step back in time at the enchanting Casco Viejo of Panama! This vibrant area is the second most significant stop on our tour, right after the iconic Panama Canal. As you stroll through its cobblestone streets, you’ll be captivated by the rich history and the stunning fusion of architectural styles that tell the tale of Panama's past. Marvel at the breathtaking Catedral Basílica Santa María La Antigua, the first cathedral in the Americas, with its majestic presence. Don’t miss the Arco Chato, a unique arch that adds to the charm, and be sure to take a moment in La Plaza de Francia, where history and culture come alive. Each corner of Casco Viejo is a treasure waiting to be discovered, making this an unforgettable journey through the heart of Panama's heritage!

Catedral Basilica Metropolitana Santa Maria La Antigua

Please note that the information below is part of the one-hour walking tour in the charming Old Town included in our Half Day City & Panama Canal Tour. Step into the stunning Catedral Basílica Metropolitana Santa María La Antigua, a highlight of our tour! This architectural marvel is the first cathedral in the Americas, showcasing a blend of colonial and modern styles. As you enter, take a moment to admire its intricate details and rich history that resonate throughout the space. This short stop is perfect for snapping breathtaking photos that capture the essence of Panama’s heritage. Don't miss this chance to experience one of the most significant landmarks in the country!

France Square

Welcome to Plaza de Francia, the grand finale of our tour! This historic site pays tribute to the French efforts in the construction of the Panama Canal, a monumental feat that transformed global trade. As you explore the plaza, you'll be captivated by the stunning views of the Panama City skyline, the entrance to the Panama Canal, and the majestic Bridge of the Americas. It’s not just a feast for the eyes; this plaza is also a fantastic spot for direct shopping from local artisans, allowing you to take home unique souvenirs that embody the spirit of Panama. We invite you to linger a little longer, as this is the perfect place to enjoy a meal on the rooftops, plazas, or terraces of the charming Casco Antiguo.
