Set in the heart of Panama City, guests will have the opportunity to discover its two sides - the modern, with its skyscraper banks and casinos, - and the old town.

Down the hill, while wandering the lovely cobblestoned streets of Panama's oldest town guests can relive the remote times of the colonial city of Panama and its incredible cultural and night life. Considered a UNESCO Cultural World Heritage Site, the ‘Casco Viejo’ is a wonderful center, which dates back to the 17th century and features a thriving gastronomic scene, impressive art galleries, history-filled attractions and museums. As you walk through the neighborhood, stop at Plaza de Francia, a beautiful plaza that pays homage to the French role in the construction of the Panama Canal. Guests will also encounter some religious history at the Metropolitan Cathedral located in the main square, Plaza Mayor, and several of the city’s top museums, including the Museo del Canal.

May you wish to venture out of the city, embark on an amazing Pearl Islands tour on board your private catamaran ; reel in the fish of your fantasy, go snorkeling, watch for whales and dolphins, and enjoy a meal prepared by a Chef! Guests willing to see abundant wildlife by the Canal and Gatun Lake will ride along the waters of the Panama Canal, right next to the ships passing through on their way to the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, and will visit the famous Monkey Islands where capuchins, howlers, and tamarins up close in their natural habitat can be observed!

Filled with famed landmarks and charming plazas lined with cafes and bars, along with the striking contrast of its French and Spanish architecture backdropped by the modern cosmopolitan skyline of the city, makes it an extraordinary city destination to explore!
