2 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English and 1 more

What if I told you that most travelers never truly see Panama City? They wander through its modern skyline, snap a few photos of Casco Viejo, and think they’ve experienced it all.

Too many visitors leave without tasting the real soul of Panama City, without hearing the tales locals tell or discovering the places where everyday life unfolds. Exploring alone often means missing those small, magical details that make a city unforgettable.

Our Walking Tour in Panama City changes that. Your local guide doesn’t follow a script, they adapt to you. Whether you’re drawn to colonial charm, street art, or local flavors, you’ll see the city through the eyes of someone who calls it home. From iconic landmarks to tucked-away gems.

By the end, you won’t just have walked through Panama City, you’ll have connected with it. Expect personal recommendations, genuine encounters, and stories that stay with you long after the tour ends.
