    Our guide Milton was so very informative and a great guide. Our 1.15 hour drive from the cruise port to Panama City went by quickly as Milton explained what we were going by to see. After seeing the locks, it was useful as we sailed through the Panama Canal the next day. Thank you Milton!!

    It was very informative, the guide was very knowledgeable and spoke great English. My only complaint is there was not a stop for food. He did provide snacks and drinks but it would be great if we could have stopped even for something fast like an empanada or pizza. It is a 6 hour tour and we were 11-5. I don't think snacks is enough.

    We were met outside the cruise port by Arcenio. Before we left, we discussed when we needed to be back to the cruise ship. It was decided we needed to be back at 4:30. We started out driving through the countryside on the way to Panama City which is an hour plus drive. Arcenio commentated as the driver drove. We did have to detour once as they were working on the road. We continued in through the old part of town and then went into the new part of town. We stopped for a short time for a potty break at a square in the city. Two of the ladies on the excursion said they had money they had to spend and they needed to shop. This was not included in the description of the excursion. Rather than giving them the 30 or 45 minutes, he gave them an hour and 30 minutes. Arcenio is a very nice person but not an organizer. He said be back in an hour and 30 minutes but it was longer. The rest of us stood around and waited with the exception he showed us a church on the square. We had missed our original time at the canal to see the movie and then watch a ship come through the canal. We didn't have enough time to watch the movie first so it was decided to do that after we saw the ship come through. By the time we saw the ship go through the locks and it was time to start another movie, we were very close on time to getting back to our ship. The movie did not start on time and we felt we could not be guaranteed to get back to the ship on time if we ran into more construction. We left before the movie started and found a taxi that would take us back to the cruise terminal. We felt very bad about having to do this since we didn't get to do the movie which was included in the excursion. We did get back to the cruise terminal so we could walk to the ship instead of run and not late. We are very sorry that Arcenio made the decision he did to change the outcome of our excursion. We were suppose to be back at 4:00pm not 5:25pm.
