Alex did a great job telling our small group about the history of Casco Viejo. Answered all our questions and we did a lot of walking, so wear comfortable walking shoes. Visited the Mola Museum which is something we missed the last time we visited. Saw much in 3 hours.

This tour was an excellent introduction to Casco Viejo. Alex taught us so much about the history of the area and of Panama and Panama City as it related. He also shared valuable information about the present day. You won't go wrong with this tour, especially if you are a blank slate like I was.

Alex is an amazing tourist guide very informative and engaging. We learned a lot about the old city that was moved and just about the Panamanian culture in general. Thank you!!

I was in Panamá for 3 days and decided to do a walking tour of the city I stayed in—Casco Viejo. I had the best time walking and learning about this stunning UNESCO heritage site. Our tour guide, Elmer, was the best and had such a passion for the culture and information he shared. He was so well versed in the history of Casco Viejo and was very prepared and provided umbrellas for us when it started to rain. I fell in love with Casco Viejo and I can’t wait to return to Panamá with my family next year. Thanks again Elmer!

It was our first time in Panama and first day in Casco Viejo. We always enjoy an overall tour the first day. Alex was perfect. An obvious local who knew so many people as we walked the streets. Alex was informative and personable. We enjoyed the hidden gems and encourage you to take the tour as well. Alex, you were right, the ceviche was delicious!!
