Our Panama City Classic Car Tour was honored with the Tripadvisor Travelers’ Choice Best of the Best Award 2025, placing it among the top-rated experiences worldwide. Instead of buses or vans, you’ll ride in iconic 1970s VW Safari convertibles — brightly colored cars that have become famous in Panama. Locals wave and cheer as you pass, making you feel like a celebrity while exploring the city’s landmarks. Every tour delivers incredible photo opportunities, fun music, and expert local guides who bring Panama’s history and culture to life.

What makes this truly special is the energy of the experience. With the top down, the tropical breeze in your hair, and music playing, every ride feels like a celebration. Our cars turn heads everywhere they go, and no other tour in Panama City creates the same sense of excitement, connection, and unforgettable memories. Perfect for couples, families, friends, or larger groups, it’s the coolest way to discover Panama City.
