TOUR OVERVIEW - 2-Day Discover Panama Vacation Packages
Day 1:
Start your Panama Vacation Packages adventure by exploring one of Panama's most iconic landmarks, the Panama Canal Miraflores Locks. Witness the fascinating engineering marvel as massive ships pass through the locks, raising or lowering to continue their journey between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Learn about the history and significance of this engineering masterpiece through interactive exhibits and informative presentations.
Next, head to Fort San Lorenzo, a UNESCO World Heritage Site located on the Caribbean coast. This 17th-century fortress played a vital role in protecting the valuable trade routes of the Spanish Empire. Marvel at the well-preserved ruins and imagine the battles that took place in this strategic location. Enjoy panoramic views of the Caribbean Sea and the lush surrounding rainforest from the fort's vantage points.
Afterward, continue your journey to Portobelo, a charming coastal town known for its rich history and vibrant culture. Explore the colonial-era ruins and visit the Church of San Felipe, which houses the famous Black Christ statue. Immerse yourself in the town's unique atmosphere, wander through the colorful streets, and interact with the friendly locals. Don't miss the opportunity to savor some delicious traditional Panamanian cuisine at one of the local restaurants.
Day 2:
On your second day of your Panama Vacation Packages tour, you will embark on a cultural expedition to the Embera tribe, an indigenous community nestled in the heart of Panama's rainforest. Travel by boat up the Chagres River, surrounded by lush greenery and diverse wildlife. Upon reaching the Embera village, receive a warm welcome from the tribe members, dressed in their traditional attire.
Spend the day learning about the Embera's rich traditions, customs, and way of life. Participate in traditional dances, witness intricate handicraft demonstrations, and listen to fascinating stories shared by the community's elders. Enjoy a traditional Embera lunch, consisting of freshly caught fish, tropical fruits, and patacones (fried plantains). Immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the surroundings by taking a refreshing swim in the river or exploring the nearby jungle trails.
In the afternoon, head back to Panama City and visit Casco Viejo, the historic district of the city. With your knowledgable guide enjoy a walking tour, strolling through the narrow cobblestone streets lined with beautifully restored colonial buildings, vibrant cafes, and art galleries. Admire the mix of architectural styles, ranging from Spanish colonial to French and Art Deco. Visit prominent landmarks such as the Metropolitan Cathedral, Plaza de la Independencia, and the Presidential Palace. Don't forget to indulge in some shopping for local crafts and souvenirs.
As the sun sets, enjoy a picturesque view from one of the rooftop bars while sipping on a happy hour cocktail. As the tour concludes our guide will either return you to your hotel or recommend a restaurant, savoring delicious Panamanian cuisine.
This 2-day Panama tour package offers an unforgettable blend of history, culture, nature, and adventure.
