Cần Quan Tâm
Colon
Colón was founded in 1850 by the Panama Railroad Company, on the swampy island of Manzanillo, originally called Aspinwall by the company. Within the city of Colón, we have several sites such as the Casco Antiguo de Colón, or Cristóbal, the latter created by the French canal company. As well as public spaces such as Paseo Washington and Paseo Lesseps. Also, within this historic center, some buildings are declared monuments, such as the Episcopal Church, Cristo a Orillas del Mar, the Washington Hotel, and the Morgan Battery at Fort Lesseps. we will be visiting all these places listed above on this wonderful experience
Paseo Marino
It is a promenade that runs through part of the city of Colon and contains healthy recreation areas for children and adults, bicycle paths and even a plaza for people who like to practice "skating." From this privileged place you can see the ships waiting to enter the Panama Canal and those heading towards the enormous port of Manzanillo with merchandise from all over the world.

5.00Roddrick did an amazing job teaching the culture of Colon. This tour was very informative lead by a local historian still proudly living in the community. We walked the streets of the city and saw where the locals shop, work, pray and learn. Thank you for this very personable experience.
Colon Panamá a must see!!

5.00Exploring Colón was such a memorable experience! The city tour gave us a great mix of history, culture, and beautiful waterfront views. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and made every stop interesting with stories about the area’s connection to the Panama Canal and local culture. The scenery was beautiful, the people were welcoming, and there were plenty of spots for photos, shopping, and trying local food. I especially loved seeing the colorful streets and learning more about Panama beyond just Panama City.

5.00What an amazing day of sights an learning. They picked us up at our hotel in Panama CIty and then we went to Colon. Our guide Rigo was the absolute best! He was very informative and just a cool guy. He explained everything and showed us around the entire Colon area. LOTS of history and culture. The restaurant he took us too was simply perfect - food flavorful and plentiful. Every person we met was so kind. It was amazing to see the 160 year old church and see that Jesus does not look like he is protrayed in western nations. Much more I could say but this is a MUST DO trip when you come!

5.00Tour guide: Roderick I used Viator to book a guided tour of **Colón**, and it was the highlight of my trip to Panama. This city is a fascinating "global chessboard" where history and modern geopolitics collide. **Highlights of the experience:** * **The Architecture:** Walking through the historic center feels like stepping back in time. Seeing the **Hotel Washington** (designed by the same architects as West Point!) and the crumbling French-style buildings was hauntingly beautiful. * **Local Culture:** Our guide explained the story behind the vibrant **"Diablos Rojos"** (reborn US school buses) and the unique school system where students fill the streets in a sea of uniforms every afternoon. * **The Human Connection:** Hearing the "Silver People" of Rainbow City speak English and share stories of the Canal Zone days added a layer of depth you can't get from a guidebook. * **The Big Picture:** From the shift to **MSC management** at the port to the **Altos de los Lagos** housing projects, I left with a real understanding of the economic "Renovación Urbana" happening today. If you want a tour that goes beyond the surface and explores the "soul" of Panama, I highly recommend booking a local guide through this app. Colón is a city waiting for its next great act—don't miss it!

5.00I had such an incredible experience visiting Colón, Panama! From start to finish, everything was truly memorable. Our driver, Davis, arrived right on time in a clean, comfortable, air-conditioned van. He made the journey from Panama City to Colón feel easy, expertly navigating the streets. Once we arrived, our tour with Roderick began—and wow! I didn’t come in with any expectations, but if I had, he would have exceeded every one of them. Roderick gave us exactly what I didn’t even realize I needed: a real, authentic experience. He showed us the heart of Colón—the everyday people living their lives, the rich culture, the market, shopping and of course, the amazing food. One of my favorite parts was getting to try a variety of local foods at Santizo African Kitchen - fried fillet, coconut rice, patacones, garlic butter lobster. I also met a very polite and respectful young man selling meat pies and pineapple filled pies, which were delicious. During lunch, I heard Roderick mention coconut bread and thought I had missed seeing it on the menu. He explained that the place that sold it was about 15–20 minutes away, and Davis would take me. I did not want to interrupt the flow of the tour just for me to try this bread. A few minutes later, Davis appeared with coconut bread he had purchased for himself—and kindly offered me a taste. That small, thoughtful gesture meant so much and was just one example of me seeing how much they cared about our experience on the tour. This wasn’t just a tour—it felt like being welcomed into a community and seeing the city through a genuine, human lens. I left with a deeper appreciation for Colón and its vibrant spirit, as seen in Roderick. I Highly recommend this experience if you’re looking for something real, meaningful, and unforgettable!
