Rafael was an excellent tour guide. I had a couple hours during my layover and learned a lot about the history of Panama and got to do a city tour where we walked around and I saw the sites up close. Rafael was friendly and easygoing and happy to take all my photos. My highlight was seeing the Panama Canal and Rafael helped me find some sloths that I have been excited to see. We also had a wonderful lunch at a local eatery. I highly recommend this tour.We were short on time so the guide and driver adjusted the Tour to hit the highlights and make it back to the airport in time. Appreciated their flexibility.

Great guide with Mr. Levy. Very convenient and very worth it if you have at least 6 hours layover in Panama City. We went to the highlights - Panama Canal, Amador Causeway, Casco Viejo. Best part was the lunch at Sabores del Chorrillo. This is the place where locals go, price is reasonable and the food is great! Mr. Levy (try to ask for him when you book) will bring you here if you have enough layover time.Great tour! The driver guide was very informative and nice. Explained a lot about the city, its history, and of course we dropped by the Panama Canal. Enjoyed a lot!
