Old Panama one cobblestone street at a time — plazas, churches, rooftops, skyline views.

Ships rising through the locks, metres away. The thing everyone photographs.

Canoe into an Emberá community in the rainforest. Dance, crafts, lunch.
Panama Bay Sunset Cruise
Golden hour on a catamaran, skyline on one side, Pacific on the other.
Gamboa Rainforest
Aerial tram over the canopy, then the wildlife of the Canal watershed.
El Valle de Antón Day Pass
A town inside a volcano crater: waterfalls, market, cool air.

Questions Canadians ask
How do I pay?
A 50% deposit secures your dates; we send a secure payment link with your confirmation. Balance is due before travel. Visa and Mastercard accepted.
Is the 3-day price per person?
Per tour. It covers the hotel room, transfers, guide and attorney consultation for the booking; ask us about couples and small groups.
Can you build a Boquete or Coronado itinerary?
Yes — both are priced above. Boquete includes the domestic flight logistics; we’ll quote them with your dates.
What if I just want transfers and a couple of day trips?
That’s most of our visitors. Message Victor for transfers and Franklin for experiences, or send one inquiry and we’ll sort it.
What happens if you get sick in Panama?
The Care Guide answers it with sources: verified hospital and dental contacts, what your province pays abroad, what the hospital asks for at admission, and an assistant that never quotes an unverified number.
- 35 facilities, every phone checked on the official site
- OHIP, RAMQ, MSP and every other plan, with the ministry source
- Dental prices against Toronto quotes
“I'm from Ontario. What will OHIP pay if I'm hospitalized in Panama City?”
“Which hospital has an English-speaking international desk?”
“Is it worth flying down for two implants?”
