We were super excited to visit the Panama Canal. Our driver, Shey, was on time and friendly. Unfortunately when we arrived, we were turned away because there wasn't another ship scheduled to come through until 3:00. We arrived at 1:00! That wasn't the issue though. We were also told that Miraflores museum etc. was CLOSED! There was nothing to see but an empty lock structure. There was no museum, no cafe, and no IMAX theater. It was so bad that they are only charging $10 because nothing else is open. It would've been nice to know this before booking a trip with Trip Advisor. The only saving grace was that our awesome guide offered to take us along the Amador Causeway and to the Mi Pubelita settlement since we had already toured Casco Viejo days before. When we returned at 3:00, we still didn't see a ship until almost 5:00, and we ended up having to take an Uber back to our apartment. Trip Advisor should make it clear that these attractions aren't open and that time can get thrown way off due to ship timing. Do better Trip Advisor!

Amazing experience to see the canal. Very friendly driver who was prompt and courteous. I highly recommend this if you are looking for a tour just to see the canal without an extra stop.

They wouldn't accept our online tickets, even though the barcodes were clear, and made us pay $20 each for their specific paper tickets. Not happy this trip cost me $76 for the both of us and we didn't get a personal tour or anything. Extremely dissappointing! Would like my $36 returned.

This "tour" consisted of getting a ride to and from the locks. Tour guide didn't come in with us, or give us any kind of information at all about the locks. Very disappointing, probably could have hired a cab for less and gotten the same service.

Nice experience and must see! 2 hours was the prefect amount time to visit and learn about the Canal.

This tour never happened. After driving around for 2 hours, we still were not able to find this 2 hour tour of the Panama Canal. DO not buy this ticket.

DO NOT TAKE THIS TOUR! Either take a taxi or sign-up for a tour at the airport. No ships were there and the tour guide gave two old hot bottles of water with no labels on it. The driver didn't even speak English and we specifically requested for a English guide. This was the worst tour and rip off.
