Our flight was 2 hours late due to bad weather in Canada and not clearing customs till midnight but Mario contacted us and waited. Very nice person and spacious vehicle.

Mario is very professional, helpful and friendly. He took us to the Caribbean coast and back. He also took us on a tour of the older sections of Panama City. Very well done. He was a pleasure to work with and he is very dependable.

Wonderful costumer service very attentive and kind to my family, very puntual and responsive, super recommended

I had to write this review! Mario was hands down the best driver and tour guide! Not only was he waiting for me at the airport but was communicative before travel. Mario also made me feel safe and comfortable. This was a solo trip so safety was everything for me. I also used Mario’s services for the Panamá Canal tour and Monkey Island tour. This was a private tour and Mario went above and beyond to make sure we got to the canal on time and made sure we didn’t miss the imax movie! I had such an awesome time during the tours and would highly recommend Mario! He is full of knowledge and even provides great recommendations of where to visit. I promise you won’t be disappointed if booking with Mario! He will be my go to when I travel back to Panamá!! Thank you Mario for making my trip that much more memorable!!

Mario was an amazing addition to our trip to Panamá. We used his services to and from the airport, in addition to an excursion to Monkey Island and the Summit Zoo. His vehicle was very comfortable and accommodating for my family. I asked for his suggestions on kid-friendly places that my son would enjoy and he definitely DELIVERED. Although we got rained on coming from Monkey Island and leaving the zoo, they were both very memorable experiences and I would 100% do them again with him. We learned so much about the history of and everyday life in Panamá from someone that is super knowledgeable and proud of his country. That was a real treat. When I return to Panamá, I will hands down be booking all of my travel and excursions with Mario again. You won’t be disappointed!!!

Mario provides extremely professional service. His vehicle is clean and stays cool and comfortable in the Panamá heat. His tours are guaranteed to give you the experiences that you’re looking for. With Mario you will not be at the Panamá Canal wondering why there are no ships to be seen. You will see that large ship up close and personal as it passes through the locks. You will have that wild monkey take the fruit right out of your hand. You will meet the indigenous people and see their village. If you’re lucky enough to ride up front with Mario you get the history and culture of Panamá at it meets you on the road. He was catering and kind to my family and myself. I recommend you go with the best.

My family and I used Mario for airport transfer and 2 day tour ( monkey island, Embera Indigenous Village, Panama Canal and Caribbean Island Tour) while on vacation in Panama. The airport transfer was like a tour in itself. He is so knowledgeable and was able to tell us so much about the city while we drove to our hotel. Before even leaving NYC he was able to tell us best time a day to travel due to traffic and he knew the airport and airline schedule so well. It was a great experience. I told him the places and things I wanted to do and he made a great itinerary with times to ensure we saw what we wanted. We got to feed the monkeys and my daughter was able to see the right on the boat, we even got to see a crocodile up close…so cool. He translated for us in the village which was a beautiful experience and you got to by one of a kind souvenir hand made by their people. We even got to see boats going through the canal since he knew the times. The Caribbean island tour was the most relaxing day. It was a long drive but again it felt like an additional tour. As we went to Cologne, he was able to tell us so many stories about past present and future Panama again five out of five. He works with great people so they take care of you and make sure the experience is memorable. The last additional surprise was when we were driving to the airport back home after a great trip, and he stopped for me to get my Molas purse. He knew where to get the authentic hand made purse from so I can support the actually women who made them directly. Overall, it was an amazing experience, and we will always use Mario again in the future . He was a professional. He was knowledgeable and made this trip Amazing. thanks, Mario.

Mario goes above and beyond. Never have experienced service from someone so genuinely kind and caring. His help and suggestions made our trip so much better. I was with a group of girlfriends and he was so attentive in a fatherly way, wanted to make sure we were safe in Panama City and told us if anything happened or if we need help to give him a call. I cannot recommend booking with Mario enough! You will be so well taken care of, I promise you. Thank you Mario!

As a 25 year old, female, traveling with other young woman, in a country, we don’t know a lot about- it’s important to make sure the people you work with are trustworthy. From the second, we landed in Panama, Mario was extremely attentive, and made us feel very safe. During our time with him, he let us know what to look out for in Panama, gave us some history lessons of the area, told us about the good places to go in the places to avoid and everything in between. It felt like one of my dad’s friends picked me up from the airport and was just as concerned about the safety of our group as my dad would’ve been. Mario is a father of daughters, so it makes sense he gives off this energy. Obviously has service was outstanding, but him, as a human was even more impressive! If you’re a solo, female traveler, Mario’s definitely the person to call. He even told us one of the nights that we went out partying that he would turn off do not disturb in case anything happened. Couldn’t recommend Mario enough thank you so much

Our experience with Mario was incredible. He was punctual, extremely professional, knowledgeable, and quite helpful. When we return, I will definitely use his services! I’ve already shared his information with our travel agent.

Mario was so professional, on time, provided helpful tips and truly cared about delivering such a great experience!! We appreciated his great service!

Excellent service. On time. Courteous. Nice Lexus SUV. Clean. Great option to travel in style. Will use this service again anytime I am in Panama City.

5 stars all the way for Mario. This was our first time in Panama. Mario is a true professional and has a wealth of knowledge about Panama. He made our experience so much more memorable. Mario is very reliable and prompt. We look forward to coming back to Panama and we will definitely be reaching out to him.

Mario is very kind and very knowledgeable about Panama. He loves this country and is very proud of it. He did our transfers, Casco Veijo tour and Panama Canal tour. We asked for him personally. We still chat over Whatsapp and we have built a strong relationship with him and we appreciate him and his services so much. I 1000% recommend Mario! He is super easy to deal and book with and he is there when you need him. Always on time (actually early). Thank you Mario! We will be back and using you!!

As a young solo female traveler arriving at night, I wanted to be sure I had a safe, reliable ride waiting for me at the airport when I arrived! I found Mario through his excellent trip advisor reviews and easily contacted him through WhatsApp. Mario was there to greet me the moment I stepped out of the airport! The transfer was one less thing I had to worry about on a long travel day! I would absolutely recommend booking with him!

Visited Panama with college friends (of 44 years) for a fishing and sightseeing trip. This adventure was par excellence due to Mr Gonzalez’s expert and knowledgeable guidance! He was well versed in all aspects of our trip to include a wonderful inshore and offshore fishing expedition, private tour of historical sites, reservations at the best restaurants [two of these actually cooked our catch of fish to perfection] in town, and comfortable transportation to all of the above! We’re already discussing our next trip there, as long as Mario heads it up. He’s the man!!

Fantastic trip! Fun, Historical, insightful and the fishing was next level!! Mario is a professional! Everyone associated was helpful, knowledgeable, and accommodating! I plan to go back but only if I can book with these guys!

On time, very professional, excellent English. Helped us with our luggages and shared recommendations.

I highly recommend Black Car Panama 🇵🇦. I communicated with Mario prior to arriving, and he prepared me and my guest for the airport transfers. His spirit was very welcoming and warm. His private vehicle with spacious, comfortable, clean and smell good. To add, he was punctual. I also booked a private tour with Black Car Panama to the beautiful beach in Colón, Panama. While driving to the beach, Mario and his partners gave us interesting facts regarding the history of panama. They also mentioned a plethora of excursions that their car service offers. The day trip was relaxing, the food was exceptionally good, the weather was perfect, the cocktails were delicious and overall well worth it. It’s a must see location. Black Car Paul Panama 🇵🇦 provided exceptional service. I will recommend this service to all of my clients. Thank you for making the experience memorable. See you soon.✌🏽

Mario was so nice. Took us to a convenient store to buy drinks on way to the hotel. Highly recommend him for transportation while visiting Panama.
