We were lucky to have a small group on the day of our tour, so the guide had a chance to answer a lot of questions from the travelers. He also kept us entertained with facts and stories about the Canal and Panama.

Pick up and drop off service from and to Hotel worked fine, boat was good, lunch was ok, and provided drinks were good and plenty. We were lucky that the boat was not full, so we could change our seats on the upper deck from time to time to stay in the shade because it was extremely hot. We went to the Miraflores locks and the museum a day prior to the tour, where we already got a lot of information and impressions which helped us to really enjoy the tour even more (highly recommended).We did the partial tour because there was no full transit available at our dates. We were happy about that at the end of the tour because one more set of locks could not have made the experience any better.

Excellent & informative tour with good food, plentiful drinks, space aplenty to move around & get best photo shots. As an engineer, I find the canal history & current operations fascinating so very glad I did this tour. It was the highlight of my Panama visit.
