The Best of Panama

Our guide. Kenny, was wonderful.
However, I felt that more thought should have been given to the order of activities, as we did 2 rather strenuous hikes the first 2 days, after arriving at our hotel about 11:00 p.m. the first night, and having to leave the hotel very early the next 2 mornings and not have breakfast available. There also was a need for more bathroom stops.
Also, the first day on the island near Panama City did not have enough to warrant spending the whole day there.

If you love visiting other countries and are interested in history, culture and the Panama Canal, this is a great trip for you. Be prepared to be physically active. This is not a restful trip. Hiking, bird watching, and swimming in a waterfall are included but you have to work for it. Our tour director was fabulous, but we had lots of early mornings. Good restrooms were scarce. Overall, we had a fabulous time. It was just a little more active than we expected. Book your own flight. The flights picked by Go Ahead were horrendous!

Panama Canal

This was a very good introduction to Central American culture. The Canal is simply one of those things that should be on everyone's bucket list.
