Walking Tour of Panama City
♡ Save
Join us and discover the vibrant soul of Panama City! Explore its rich culture, history, and hidden gems on a journey that blends the charm of the old with the energy of the new. A unique adventure you won’t want to miss!
We’re going to explore all the marvelous architectural styles and the most important details of Panama’s history, all in one place: Casco Antiguo.
We'll visit La Merced Church, home to Panama’s oldest religious group, which arrived from Barcelona, Spain, in 1219.
You’ll also visit La Aurora Cantina, the first cantina in Panama, established in 1914. Located in the heart of Santa Ana, it's the only place allowed to sell a liter of Balboa beer, an authentic local experience.
I promise to exceed your expectations! At the end of the tour, I’ll give you personalized recommendations for local shops and restaurants where you can enjoy truly Panamanian flavors in a genuine, local atmosphere.
We’ll also visit the Chocolate Museum, a perfect stop to recharge your energy with a sweet treat.
