About Panama

Panama is genuinely a land between two oceans — the Panama Canal cuts through the middle of the country, with the Caribbean coast's San Blas islands and cloud-forest mountains on one side, and the Pacific-facing highlands of Boquete and the Coiba Archipelago's marine park on the other. Panama City's colonial Casco Viejo and the Miraflores Locks sit right in the middle, making it an easy hub for routes that head out to the coasts and mountains in either direction.

Because Panama's highlights split across coasts, canal, and highlands, Voyzo's Panama tours are built as private, driver-led circuits, with hotels, lodges, or island cabins arranged at every stop. Some routes stay closer to Panama City, the canal, and the San Blas islands, while others push further into the Chiriquí highlands and Bocas del Toro — whichever fits your group, the itinerary can be reshaped around what matters most to you.

Know Before You Go — Panama

Best Time to Visit

December through mid-April is Panama's dry season and the most reliable time to visit, with less rain across the country; the wet season (May-November) brings afternoon showers but keeps the rainforest and highlands lush.

Getting Around

Panama's coasts, canal, and highlands are each a distinct driving leg — a private driver covers the paved routes between Panama City, Boquete, and the highlands, while San Blas and Bocas del Toro require a boat or short flight.

Weather & What to Pack

Panama is tropical and humid at sea level year-round; pack light, breathable clothing for the coast and San Blas, with a warmer layer for the cooler cloud-forest air in Boquete's highlands.

Money & Tipping

Panama uses the US dollar directly (called the balboa locally, but US bills circulate as legal tender), so no currency exchange is needed for US travelers; 10% tipping is standard at restaurants.

Local Tips

The San Blas Islands are governed by the Guna people under their own semi-autonomous system — visits typically go through Guna-run boat operators and homestays rather than independent travel.

Local Tips

Panama City's Casco Viejo and the Miraflores Locks are close together and easy to combine in a single day, while San Blas and the Chiriquí highlands are full-day or multi-day trips from the capital.

The Panama Canal cutting through the middle of the country, the Guna-governed San Blas Islands, Panama City's colonial Casco Viejo old town, and the coffee-growing highlands around Boquete.
Yes — the Miraflores Locks visitor center lets you watch container ships and tankers transit the canal at close range, with exhibits explaining how the lock system works.
A Caribbean archipelago of small, palm-covered islands governed by the Guna people, reached by boat from the mainland — a genuinely different experience from Panama's mainland cities.
Panama City and the main tourist routes are generally safe, though as anywhere it pays to use standard travel precautions, especially around money and valuables in crowded areas.
The US dollar circulates directly alongside Panama's own balboa, so US travelers don't need to exchange currency.
Hot and humid year-round at sea level, with a dry season from December to mid-April and a wetter season the rest of the year bringing regular afternoon showers.
Both require a boat crossing or short flight rather than a direct road — a private driver typically handles the mainland legs, with boat transfers arranged for the island crossing.
