Have never been, always been intrigued by the history of the city/country, so wanted to see if anyone here has been and if you think it is worth seeing/traveling to, and what to do once I actually get there. Any places I should see/frequent and others I should avoid at all costs? TIA...
I'm from panama and go there every summer. I'll give you some places to go. -Take a tour of the canal, it's AMAZING. -Go to "Old Panama" which is located in Panama city, it's the ruins of what remained when the Spanish Armada destroyed panama for gold. -You have to go to the "central", only during day though, not to safe at night. -You should go to the resort decameron, great place if you have kids and if your singles there's alot of fine girls there. It's about an hour from the city. -You have to go to the beach Venado if you like to surf, waves are AWESOME. -Go to Pencas, best restaurant in the city. These are just some ideas. Panama is an awesome place and the drinking limit is 18
Besides the surfing and cheap prostitutes part, thanks for the tips So judging by your list, I wouldn't really need to venture outside the city itself for the most part. I do intend on taking a tour of the Canal, and will probably watch "The Tailor of Panama" a couple of times before going, too
