  • My first time in Panama was simply amazing! I must admit that it exceeded my expectations giving off a more modern, first world vibez with it's sky scrapers, conventional hotels and sophisticated flare. I would definitely visit again.

    Wow my country has changed so much. Back in the 80's and 90's you would've thought you were in Jamaica also many, many people used to speak English around ghe city due to the US Army presence and also all the west Indian descents, also in the professional anviorenmt English was very well spoken. I noticed that there is a huge presence of Colombians and Venezuelan that have changed our culture a lot. I feel now like my country is more like South America, before it was like a carribean island feeling.

    Hi, if you are planning your trip to Panamá please find a tourist guide at least the first 2 days. They usually know the best spots and most are bilingual black people. They provide the service independently because most of these 5 star hotels don't pay well. Some have vehicles and can take you wherever you want to go. Do not travel alone, specially if you don't know the language. ❤ Enjoy your stay in Panamá 🇵🇦
    Un abrazo 🤗 hugs.

Food like dinner etc can be purchased at the hotel which honestly I didn't find it expensive or u can always order food from elsewhere there are soooo many restaurants close by. I don't think there's any all inclusive in city though🤔.
