The incredible canal
For me Panama is all about the Canal - it is the most extraordinary homage to engineering. We visited the Miraflores locks to watch the great ships transit through - the process takes about an hour and a half. We may have taken one too many photos, but it was incredible to watch. We highly recommend it - particularly if you can wait a couple of …

Panama City & Lake Gatun
We were flying in from Santa Marta, with a stopover in Bogota. During our connection, I was reading some Panama City reviews on the Trip Advisor app. I noticed a top rating for a Lake Gatun tour by a guy named Carl. Quickly, I sent an email and he said he'd picked us up the next day.
We opted for the day trip since it was a last minute …
Hats off to Panama City!

TravelPod Member ReviewsEsplendor Panama Panama City
For about $150USD, you got a big, one-bedroom, two-bathroom suite with full amenities. The desk guy was a dud, but had little impact on our stay. I'd go here versus the Finistirre Suites 100 times out of a 100.

Fantastic view from our suite on 38th floor. Lovely suites. Good breakfast. Nice pool area. Staff were very nice apart from the room service staff who seemed less interested. Other guests turned up their noses at our backpacks and travel attire, however the reception staff were charming.
Thoroughly recommend this hotel, it was in the financial district and everything was very accessible by cheap taxi rides.
