Get ready to hop on our comfortable open-top bus for the ride of a lifetime in Panama City! If you don't want to start your bus journey in the midday sunshine, why not hop off at Balboa Boutiques Plaza to take cover for a while?
One of the main shopping malls in Panama, it has shops for everyone's tastes! If you fancy your chances, then you can even visit the casino! Ready to soak up some rays now? Hop off the bus to take a wander around the grounds of the famous Parque Urraca. Surrounded by trees and greenery and with a great view of the city, this park is the perfect place to stop and unwind!
Hop back on our comfortable bus and head for the famous landmark in the city: the jaw-dropping Panama Canal. Frequently appearing in the list of the seven wonders of the modern world, and one of the most influential feats in human history, no trip to Panama is complete without seeing the canal and its awe-inspiring locks. This engineering marvel is a fifty-mile waterway that has been operating since 1914 and transports ships from sea level to 85 feet via a series of gravity-powered locks! It is truly a sight to behold.
Panama has it all, from incredible technological triumphs to some of the most stunning natural areas in the world.
You’ll definitely want to hop off at the Biomuseo, a biodiversity museum created by the famous Frank Gehry. The explosive colours of its exterior make it very hard to miss! Learn all about Panama’s incredible variety of life and its impact on the world’s biodiversity. We’ll take you straight to Flamenco Island, or Flamingo Island. We can’t promise that you see the graceful pink birds here, but you’ll be able to take a walk along the beautiful marina and admire stunning views of the skyline.
Another area where you’ll be able to hop off and enjoy fantastic views is Panama’s charming Casco Antiguo, the old town, dating back to 1673. This is where you’ll find the true heart of the city. Wander around its characterful winding streets, have a chinwag with the friendly locals and snap the perfect holiday pics in front of colourful, crumbling buildings.
