How to get around in Panama
Roads are relatively well paved in the west of Panama, and there’s a modern bus network to connect you to Panama’s main attractions. Buses are mostly air-conditioned, and you may be able to listen to some lively salsa music as you travel. You can also get around via water taxis or hop on the new metro located in the capital. The east side of Panama is not as well served by public transport.

Casco Viejo is Panama City’s historic centre and a major point of interest. The area is full of leafy plazas, rooftop bars, colonial buildings, and top-notch restaurants, as well as a thriving nightlife. Bella Vista is a must-visit location to take in Panama’s colonial architecture, including charming arch-shaped doorways and picturesque balconies. You can also visit nearby Panama Bay to witness a breathtaking sunset or shop in a range of chic boutiques.
Soberania National Park is ideal for a hike and is easily accessible from Panama City. The park is home to a rainforest, fascinating animal species, and the Chagres River, which runs through it.
Tips for travelling in Panama
If you love to party then make sure your Panama flight booking coincides with main festivals, including the Panama City Carnival and Peninsula del Auero’s Mardi Gras, which are held in February.
The official language in Panama is Spanish and while some locals do speak English well, most only know a few phrases or words. Don’t carry all your cash with you when you go out and only use ATMs in controlled areas, such as banks and shopping centres.
