    Fabulous day in Panama City!

    "We had an amazing time with Daly! She was impressively knowledgeable about the city and gave us an amazing tour. We had local food, drinks and snacks and learned so much about the history of the city and Panama in general. We loved the Coca-cola Cafe and the fried bread called 'hojaldra' so much! Daly gave us an amazing tour of the entire city. An amazing value for a private tour!"

    Excellent Guide

    "Daly lived up to her stellar reviews and our expectations. We had been on an hour group cruise tour of the Old City, but Daly made it look totally new and refreshed for a 3 hour walk."

    Fantastic culture experience with Daly

    "We had the most amazing day with Dolly, she is a wealth of information and so fun to be around! The historical sites she showed us starting at the Museum the politics of who runs the city and acquires real estate in old Panama! Everything was just absolutely fantastic. We laughed a lot and had a blast. I can highly recommend Daly! We loved every minute of our tour! History, food tasting, politics and more! "

    A fantastic day!

    "Daly is a beautiful energetic person. We thoroughly enjoyed our day with her. We said our focus was on life in Panama City, how the people lived. She provided that from using the bus to eating with locals. We got the stories, history and an understanding of today’s societal issues. One of the best guides we’ve had, and we have had great ones. Just go ahead and book your time with her!"

    Panama is alive!

    "Wow! What a wonderful experience we had during our 10 tastings of Panama! Daly met us at the Cafe Coca Cola and delighted us with her fun loving nature, expertise and insight. Daly brought our vision of Panama to light! We enjoyed her stories and the sights tailored to us. She was on time, and always in constant communication. The food was fantastic! Thanks Daly!"

    Great day in and out of Casco Viejo

    "We had a great tour with Daly. She knows her stuff, was on time, communicated well with our kids and showed us a great tour! We learned a lot not just about the old city but we explored the outside of the old city and really got to understand the whole situation Strongly recommend using Daly as a tour guide!"

    Excellent Customized Experience!

    "Our experience with Layla couldn’t have been better! She met us at the fish market and we ate at a quieter restaurant tucked around back and were treated to some excellent ceviche and great conversation! We then walked through the old city, where she helped us pick out a beautiful Panamanian dress and floral crown for our daughter. After expressing interest in trying Panamanian geisha coffee, she took us to a local cafe for a tasting. All in all, excellent! Highly recommend. "
