It is a one on a life experience... Mostly to get to know and live what and how does a transit feels like. - Great explanations along the way that helps understand not only what is the transit about but also facts of it.

A seamless and enjoyable way to experience the Panama Canal - The entire process is seamless and enjoyable - they've got this down! An excellent way to experience riding on the Panama Canal without going the entire distance. Food was plentiful, and the other travelers were friendly. Great staff. Highly recommended!

An unforgettable fascinating trip - Fascinating tour of an engineering marvel. Something to see with your own eyes. Videos don’t do justice. Recommend for ages 12up. My sons were 13 & 23. Well organized and timely, with a good English speaking guide who answered all our questions

Great way to experience the wonders of the Canal - A superbly organized tour of the Canal from Panama City to Gamboa. Our guide was congenial, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic. The Pacific Queen was comfortable and offered great views of the locks, container ships, and canal operations. This tour is an excellent complement to a visit to the Canal Museum in Casco Antiguo. Well worth the half day!

Inside the Canal - Partial north bound - I really enjoyed this trip. We only had about 100 people on the boat. We left at 4 am but it was worth it. I had four teens with us and they had checked out by the end of the 2nd lock. It was cool to do a time lapse. Breakfast and lunch were good and filling.
