      I absolutely loved my private tour. I feel that I really got a chance to see and experience Panamá. As much as I enjoy group tours, what I liked most was that we were able to proceed with the tour based on a pace that was comfortable to me and where I was able to ask additional questions.

      Our guide Esteban was simply the best. He went out of his way to be helpful and adjust our tour to suit our needs. He is very knowledgeable, friendly and sincerely enjoys his job. This makes it enjoyable for us to. He went beyond the call of duty for us. We recommend him 100%.

      Excellent! Dan was a perfect tour guide, his knowledge about Panamá was terrific. We chatted during the whole tour about the country, its history. Dan was willing to show the most and scheduled the tour around the boats passing through the locks, thus allowing me to see them. We had a great walk around the old city and even used the Panamerican road to cross the bridge. I would do another tour with him without hesitation. Highly recommended
