A great place to be I've been coming for over 13 years now.

Far too hot, everything's overpriced. Nice urban design.

The city bus tour is a great way to get round. Get the 48 hour pass as it’s only $2 more at $35. We got the normal bus back out to the airport. It cost 75c and was Good. Just be aware you need to get a ticket before you get on the bus.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveller

Great town but wish they had more tourist attractions. Seems like they could do more than casco viejo and Panama Canal.

The historic area of Casco Antigua had become rundown but is now being extensively restored. There is close proximity to tropical jungle and the canal. Recommend exploring Gatun Lake by boat. Wish we had time to visit Isla Tobago
