Casco Viejo- The Real City Tour

When most people get to Panama City they end up in Casco Viejo and walk around aimlessly thinking that Panama is more expensive than Switzerland. Throughout the tour I will be giving old history, advise on safety in different areas, best food stands, social history, tips on visiting the city, etc. This tour will allow the guests to fully optimize their time and then go to see the Panama Canal for the 1400-1500 window the ships pass through generally. We will start in the Casco Viejo to try the local coffee and make friends with the other guests on the tour. Then go into Santa Ana for a taste of real Panama with several food tastings (generally 2.5 hours) and then back into Casco (generally 1.5 hours) for more of the traditional tour with many current local touches. Included in the price of the tour are many local food tastings, juice, coffee, and local chocolate. Custom tours available at request.

"I’m stumbled across Jon’s tour last min. while I was visiting Panama City and I’m soo glad I did. I got taste some of the local cuisine, see the markets, and some of the most wonderful neighborhoods “off the beaten track”. Jon was very knowledgeable of the area and great tour guide! You can tell he’s put a lot of thought into ensuring the tour is catered for you."

The meeting point is the center of Plaza V Centenario (the park across from Lazotea Restaurant & Rooftop).
