Panama City Tour + Panama Viejo

We'll pick you up at your hotel in Panama City at 8 am and head to Panama Viejo, where we will visit the ruins of the first Spanish city in the country.

Our first stop will be the cathedral, where we will climb the tower for views of the colonial city and the modern area of the capital.

Next, we'll explore the wells and rural houses to learn about local life in colonial times. We will follow the path of pirate Henry Morgan across the Slaughterhouse Bridge to the Fort of the Nativity.

Additionally, we will visit the church and convent of the Immaculate Conception. There will be an option to explore the museum in Plaza Mayor to learn more about Panama Viejo's history before heading to the oldest part of Panama City.

Founded in 1673, Panama City's old town is a World Heritage Site. We will start with the cathedral, the first church built by the Spanish, then visit the churches of La Merced, San José, and San Francisco de Asís.

We will enjoy the local atmosphere in pleasant squares like Francia, Herrera, or Bolivar. The day concludes at the Panama Interoceanic Canal Museum to learn about this engineering marvel.

Finally, we will return to the hotels, concluding the tour 6 hours after pickup.
