MUST DO. We had an excellent time! Prompt pickup in the AM, comfortable bus, a good size group of 14 (not too big). John was awesome- keeping an eye on everybody, spotting wildlife, great facts and history with visuals (photos and videos). We really like the monkey island tour- we would’ve loved to stay out there longer. This company is very RESPECTFUL of wildlife- not feeding or touching! I was relieved. You could tell John really cares about the country and wildlife. The canal was cool to see and John was prompt about timing when ships would be there so we could see the canal in action. Lunch was delicious. The fort was cool to see and we had just enough time there (most of our group was done before us ready to head back). Drive times between stops were manageable and perfect for naps. I think the tour was well planned out. Customer service was excellent!! I thought we weren’t going to be able to do the full tour and settle for the half day but thanks to them managing email well, I got a swift response and help getting what we wanted. It was a fun long day and we got to see everything! Highlight was a mamma sloth and baby hanging by the road that we got to get out and see. Highly recommend to all.

From the boat ride on the Panama Canal, to wildlife watching in the jungle, and seeing giant ships pass through the Agua Clara locks, then exploring the history of Fort San Lorenzo, this tour was so much fun and the highlight of my trip. Booking for a solo traveler was easy, pre-tour communication was informative, pick up/drop off at my hotel was friendly and on-time, and lunch -- I'm still craving the flavorful, authentic Panamanian meal we had. John was an awesome guide full of knowledge and really made the day memorable. The Ocean to Ocean tour was 100% worth it! Muchas gracias por todo!
Dawn
What a great day of not only seeing the Panama Canal but getting to ride with the barges at the same time!! This was a super fun, educational and adventurous tour for all to enjoy. The lunch that was provided was delicious!! Seeing and listening to the monkeys on your boat tour was awesome and our guide, John, was always giving us fun and informative tidbits. I would highly recommend this tour!!
Cristina
Had a fantastic time on this tour of the Panama Canal, Gatun Lake, and Fort San Lorenzo. The fact that transportation to and from the hotel was provided was fantastic. We saw a lot of wildlife, boated in the canal near large ships, and learned so much history about the canal and Panama. They also provided a delicious Panamanian meal! We recommend this tour company highly. At the end of our tour, tour guide John even gave us a ton of recommendations that we actually followed up on! Fantastic experience and extremely undervalued for what they provided. Highly recommend!

This tour was honestly one of the best I have ever taken! The tour was prompt and well thought out. From the bathroom stops to the hot lunch they provided, everything was on point! They also had ice cold waters throughout the tour and umbrellas to keep the sun off you. Our tour guide, Paola was so informative. She answered all our questions and knew so much background knowledge of the places we visited. She was awesome! I would highly recommend this tour and company and would not hesitate to recommend them to any of my friends when they go to Panama.
