The guide was very kind. He arrived on time and his car was clean and comfortable. He knew a lot of good stories about each place we visited.

Had a layover in Panama City for 10 hours which I love because it gives me a chance to do a quick check on a city to see if I need to come back. TA sent me Ali Douglas of Ivan Tours. He did an amazing job. I got the highlights of the city and a good bit of history from Ali. Will definitely be back. Panama City and are has it all

Looking for an amazing, educational tour? Look no further than Luis Vega! I can not speak enough great things of our experience with Luis. He knows all the good times to go to the canal. He knows the history and facts about the city. He drives a nice van so plenty of room for a family. His English is perfect! He also made some stops around town at different lookout points for pics. He’s very affordable too. I found him through this site and another person’s review. I hope you find him through mine. He responds very quickly if you email him. When we come back to Panama we will definitely be calling him again! Good luck and have fun! Luis Vega [email protected] [email protected] 50766746315 (on WhatsApp! Too)
