Panama Canal Tour
At 8 am, we'll pick you up at your hotel in Panama City and head to the Panama Canal. After a 20-minute drive, we'll arrive in Miraflores.
The Miraflores Locks are the last section of the Panama Canal before reaching the Pacific Ocean. Ships are lifted or lowered 16 meters (54 feet), depending on their direction.
We'll witness the passage of vessels through the locks and learn about the gate operation. This process takes about 30 minutes and occurs numerous times each day.
Afterwards, there will be free time to visit the Canal Visitor Center and explore the history of its construction. The Panama Canal was the largest engineering feat in the world until the 1930s.
We will conclude the tour by dropping you back off at your hotel 4 hours after pickup.
