Overview

This is the tour that you need to be able to understand all the other tours that you are planning to take in Panama; since it will show you our beginnings, who we are and from where we come from. I will connect many parts of our history and the history of the world, until we reach our days. I will show you two cities and the multiple colors of the small great country that separated the land and united the world.

Itinerary

Cinta Costera (Pass By)

This is a project from 2009 that stole land from the sea to create a beautiful path along the bay of panama, which gives a nice view of the banking area and Balboa´s avenue. This avenue crosses the middle of the most modern city in Latin America. Here you will realize why Panama is called the Dubai and the Miami of Latin America.
Panama Viejo

This is our highlight, the historic city of Panama Viejo (The Pearls of the Pacific), World Heritage Site and the first European city In the pacific site of America. Here we will see and walk through the ruins of the city that started the European conquest of the rest of America, through the streets that once passed the treasure of the Spanish crown, the same one that caught the attention of pirates and corsairs. We will visit its cathedral and convents.

30 minutes
Museo Panama Viejo

This complete museum will show us in a very didactic way what life was like in the city, and how it was attacked and destroyed.

15 minutes
Casco Viejo

We moved to 1673 and to the second city of Panama, better known as Casco Viejo or the Walled City. Here we will see how the city was moved and was transformed over the years. We will immerse ourselves in the history of its narrow streets, protection wall, churches, plazas and beautiful buildings that mix different eras and different styles. We will also have time to take beautiful pictures and to buy some local crafts.

2 hours
Plaza de la Catedral (Pass By)

This area will show us the transformation from the colonial era to the republican era. We will see a mixture of architectural styles and we will better understand the changes of the city.
Plaza de Francia

At this point we will see and talk about the French memorial, his attempt to make a Canal and his legacy. This area will give us one of the best views of the city.

10 minutes
Plaza Bolivar

We cannot pass by here without stopping and mentioning the visionary who knew that Panama would be the bridge of the world and the heart of the universe. Here We will take a few minutes to admire the majestic monument of Simon Bolivar, liberator of nations and father of the Latin American freedom.

A must do tour when you come to Panama!

Published on Jan, 2025

Jorge was such a fantastic tour guide! We learned so much about Panama in our time with Jorge. He is very knowledgable and passionate about his country. His english is excellent and he is very personable. Wish I could have gone to all his tours here in Panama! I highly recommend you take a tour with him! You won't regret it. Thanks Jorge!

A great find of a tour guide in Panama City

Published on Feb, 2024

Jorge was thoroughly professional, and a great guide. His knowledge of the history of Panama City was really wonderful. He has a good attention to detail. Our tour with him set a great tone to begin our visit in Panama City. He was on time, organized, communicative, and even adjusted the tour based on our interests along the way. Highly highly recommend him and would hire him again. Thanks Jorge!

Connecting the dots

Published on Jan, 2022

This was my second tour with Jorge so I knew him as an excellent, professional and knowledgeable guide already. As I did the tour with him in Casco Viejo it was super interesting to go back to the beginning to Panama Viejo and connect the dots. Another highlight for sure was taking the metro and bus and learning about the development of the new parts of Panama. I assume each tour with Jorge is awesome because he just manages to bring history and architecture to life by sharing stories.
