Panama City is a vibrant, cosmopolitan and beautiful city, Capital of the Republic of Panama, and located at the Pacific side of the American Continent. Built in 1519 by Pedro Arias Davila, a Spanish Governor, it has been considered as one of the most important cities of the Americas.
During this tour, you will have the opportunity to visit the most interesting places of the city, like: Casco Antiguo: Founded in 1673, it is known as the Casco Viejo. This beautiful little area has several attractions that tourist shouldn’t miss and can easily cover in a walking tour of a few hours.
Miraflores Locks/ Panama Canal: This classic experience brings you to the very best that Panama has to offer: The Panama Canal. Participants will be able to witness the magnificent Miraflores Locks and most probably, its operation. The Locks work like water elevators: they lift ships from sea level (Pacific or Atlantic) to the level of Gatun Lake (26 meters above sea level); then the ships navigate the Canal through the Continental Divide. It is a marvelous work that you will only understand once you are at the Canal!
Your entrance ticket includes access to the IMAX Theater to see the 3D movie about the history and operation of the Panama Canal, narrated by Morgan Freeman.! What a wonderful way to experience this magnificent architectural masterpiece and to have a breathtaking view of the 8th wonder of the World!
As part of this wonderful tour, participants will visit the “Causeway”, a group of three islands linked to main land by the breakwaters of the Panama Canal. The US Army used this area for the defense of the Panama Canal, due of strategic location. Today the Causeway has restaurants offering international fine cuisine, great bars, shopping and the new Flamenco Cruise Terminal.
