Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"A fun and educational tour of the panama lock and its surrounding area. Nicely paced and full of interesting anecdotes based on Daly's experiences. We highly recommend. "
"We had an amazing tour with Daly. We are a family of four, including two children. We were able to get a feel for the local vibes of Panama City, as well as some culture, history, and she gave great tips. Daly was friendly, patient with the kids, and we had a fantastic experience (including lunch with lots of different dishes at a local spot, a tiny pastry shop, a walk through the market and fish market and stops for drinks and bites along the way). Daly was able to modify for one of our party, who is a vegetarian. Highly recommended. "
"We had a great first day in Panama walking around the Old Town with Fernando. He gave us insights into the history, old and new, of Casco Antiguo and Panama, in general. It was an excellent introduction to Panama!"
"I had never been to Panama City before. Daly was more than an expert tour guide she provided me local information that was invaluable to know about not only the past of Panama City and its neighborhoods she gave me insights to the current dynamics. Daly is not only a wonder personality to spend a tour with, she is a high educated and caring individual that brings a richness and deeper understanding to the experience. Thank you Daly!!"

"Daly was absolutely wonderful! She has an incredible sense of humor and shared fascinating insights about Panamá City, taking us to spots we would have easily missed on our own. At the Panama Canal, she knew exactly where to go to get the best views while steering clear of the crowds. Her in-depth knowledge about the canal brought it to life better than any book could! Highly recommended!"
"Daly did an amazing job on our tour. She provided a great overview of history and culture of Panama. She is very engaging and full of knowledge. She walked us though the old part of city and we ventured to other areas, such as the market, to really learn more about the culture. My whole family, including two tweens, learned a ton. We have traveled throughout Europe and Central America hiring lots of guides, and we would rate Daly as one of our very best. "
"We had a wonderful experience with Daly on our tour . She was informative and very entertaining company . We were shown some interesting places to eat and shared some amazing food during the day . I would recommend Daly 100% . A truly memorable experience with a passionate Panamanian x"
"It was such a treat to have Daly be our guide and getting to experience such unique food. Went to local vendors, the food variety was great. Her knowledge of Panamá was an added bonus. Thanks for a great time!!!! "
"We had a wonderful day with Daly. We started with a food tour in the old part of Panama City. Not only did we get to experience true Panamanian food, but Daly also educated us on the history of the area, her country and culture. We went into a wonderful small town/city museum and learned so much about the history of the city and the canal. She took us to local restaurants and helped us select dishes which were delicious and truly local. The food markets she took us to at the end of our day were amazing too. We also added the Panama Canal tour which was absolutely incredible to see. It was great to go there with a local- it really added so much more to the experience than had we done it alone. We highly recommend booking any tour with Daly. She’s very knowledgeable and super fun too!"
"We took an early afternoon booking and skipped lunch so we were pretty hungry by time we got to the food tasting. However, by time we got to the food and drink it was abundant and excellent. In between food stops we walked and listened to Daly's stories about the local and regional history. It was all very tasty and interesting. "
