Day 1: Panama City

Arrival at Tocumen International Airport. Meeting and transfer to the La Concordia Boutique hotel. Founded by conquistadors in the 16th century, Panama City was the first Spanish city and port on the Pacific Coast. Today there are two cities of Panama in the country: Old Panama - Panama Viejo - and New Panama. In Old Panama there are complete ruins - cathedrals of the early 17th century, monasteries, bridges. New Panama is a beautiful modern city, a special part of which is the well-preserved Colonial part (Casco Antiguo), where there are many buildings from that era. This part of New Panama is declared a historical heritage of humanity and is under the protection of UNESCO. A 6-hour city tour will include a visit to the modern part of Panama, the Colonial City, the observation deck on the Las Americas Bridge, and three islands in the Pacific Ocean connected by a breakwater. We will also visit the Pedro Miguel lock and drive to the other side of the canal across the Centenario Bridge, from where you can see the new locks. We will visit the residential area of the canal - the former zone where the Americans lived who were engaged in the construction of the canal and its maintenance, and one of the most beautiful streets of the capital - the Cinta Costera Embankment, which stretches along the coast of the Gulf of Panama. Afterwards we will visit Casco Antiguo - a colorful area of the city with narrow streets, squares and parks, where much of the history of the country has been preserved to this day, experiencing once again revival and reconstruction. We will visit the National Theater - one of the most expressive examples of neoclassicism in Panama. We will walk along Plaza de France, visit the Church of San Jose and learn about the history of the salvation of its unique Golden Altar, and we will be able to look at the wonderful composition about the birth of Christ, installed for Christmas 2017. On Bolivar Square stands a monument to the Liberator Simon Bolivar, a national hero of many countries in Central and South America. Next, our route goes to Cathedral Square, where the Cathedral stands, opened after restoration in 2019, the Panama Canal Museum and the Municipal Palace are located.
