After breakfast in the hotel, we will head to Panama Vieja's ruins, on the edge of the city, dating back to the 17th century. We will then head off to visit the famous Panama Canal, an incredible feat of engineering, one of the greatest and most expensive in history. We will stop at the Visitor’s Centre of the Miraflores Locks, where we can appreciate the ships sailing along the canal. We will head to the Amador Causeway, offering one of the city’s most impressive panoramic views of the canal. We will then stop off at the Mercado de Abasto market, which is the city’s largest fruit and vegetable market and where the countries best products arrive. We will then enjoy lunch in a typical restaurant of the seafood market, where of course, the menu is the catch of the day. We will then head to the Old Quarter of Panama City, the UNESCO World Heritage site of San Felipe. In the evening, we will head out on an alternative tour run by a group of former gangsters from the Ciudad de Dios (City of God) gang. They relate their stories during a walk around the streets of the historic centre, starting at the Plaza Herrera, in front of the luxurious American Trade Hotel. Previously this hotel was a base for this criminal group and from where gangsters used to monitor tourists to rob them later. They will tell you anecdotes from the previous violent years while describing important buildings and walking over forgotten footways that have not been restructured between 9th Street and 13th Street. The walk ends on 11th Street, renamed as Fortaleza Alley, a dead-end street where the criminal group used to escape from the police.

Bright and early, we will head to the domestic airport for a flight to Playon Chico, San Blas. 

The islands of San Blas aren’t as well-known as many other Central American destinations, and that’s what makes them so special. The welcoming smiles of the people you’ll meet, the brilliant transparent turquoise water, and the soft, white sand make this a beachside paradise.  This is the perfect place for wandering, relaxing and simply doing as little as possible in pristine, exquisite surroundings. Of course, there are plenty of fun excursions and the local cuisine is delicious. Expect to enjoy lots of seafood, delicious rice dishes, fresh fruit and vegetables.
