Excellent tour. - Very complete tour with a knowledgeable guide. We were well looked after by Kevin throughout. He came to tell us when it was time for the IMAX movie to start at the Locks. When there was terrible traffic entering Casco Viejo Kevin knew an alternate way. We thoroughly enjoyed our tour.

Panama city day trip - great experience! exceeded expectations! our tour guide was Jorge. took us to the canal which is super impressive then we went to casco viejo which was a gem. lots of good souvenirs there. had a nice panamanian fish meal for lunch. then zipped over to the conservatory where we spotted sloths hanging out. well organized and stress free. definitely better than just going to the canal by yourself.

Fantastic visit to old Panama City and Canal zone - We're from Toronto and were visiting with our sisters and husbands from the UK. Jorge met us on time and drove us to old Panama City where we toured the Spanish Colonial buildings, which are very attractive, and wandered through the narrow streets. Jorge took us to a lovely coffee shop and explained all the local coffee varieties. We spent about 1.5 hours in the old town. Afterwards he took us to the Smithsonian Education center where there are aquariums with local sea life and students (who speak excellent english) to explain their backgrounds. There were also at least 10 wild sloths who live in the trees and which can be seen at quite close quarters - a special surprise! We then went for lunch in a typical Panama restaurant with local foods, although Jorge would take you anywhere you requested for lunch - lunch is at your own expense. Afterwards we went to the Miraflores locks and watched a tanker ship transit through - about 1 hour complete with explanations on the lock workings. There was also a 45 minute 3D IMAX film on the history of the canal which was great. Throughout the whole tour Jorge engaged us with interesting facts and was extremely friendly and helpful.
We had booked this tour before leaving Canada and Kevin always responded rapidly to email enquiries. We highly recommend Barefoot Panama and will use them again!!

Excellent way to experience Panama City - Great day seeing the city and learning about it's history in a small group setting. Jesus was very informative and got us to all the highlights - and in spotting sloths :). So efficient getting us into the Panama Canal with pre-paid tickets and knew what time of day was best to go as the ships go through at different times. The price was fair, especially given it included entrance fees/pick up and drop off at our hotel. The communication with the company when arranging the tour was really great as well. Highly recommend!

Great tour! - Gonzo was a great tour guide! There were two couples and a family of 4 on our trip. Gonzo was great with all ages, pointing out things that would interest the children as well as being conscious of the limited mobility of one of the adults. Although there were no ships going through the locks at Miraflores when we were there, the IMAX movie was amazing. We loved seeing the city center, the aquarium and the old city. Great tour!

Sightseeing Monkey Island &Dancing with the Village People!! - Our guide(Gonzo) was fantastic and so knowledgeable so we were off to a great start from pickup time. Our boat driver had 'eagle eyes' at spotting wildlife & calling monkeys! We thoroughly enjoyed our walk in the jungle and wish we had more time exploring, sightseeing & taking in the beauty of the jungle. The village we saw was incredible and we really were captivated seeing the close proximity to the modern big city yet living in such primitive dwellings. Wish we could have had time to chat with the villagers and experience more of their day to day lives but we knew time was limited. Loved the dances they all performed for us & we got to partake it! I give this experience a superior rating as this was a once-in-a-lifetime Panamanian tour! Bravo all around & highly recommend this tour!
