Fantastic experience through the Panama Canal - Great day overall. Loved just about everything about it. I questioned if we were missing out by not being able to do the full transit. And we were not. It's a long day/process, even for the partial and we really enjoyed our time.

Worthwhile the cost and time to experience and to be informed - Exciting and informative all day whilst arriving at the pier and on board going through the locks and chambers . Plenty but not too much information on the construction and working of the canal made the day just it snd a bit

Panama Canal partial transit - For $150, this tour was a little pricey. You experience the functions of an engineering marvel and watch ships are raised about 82’ using lock gates. The food was not great either.

Driver who picked us up and dropped us off was on phone while driving and that is a safety concern - Canal experience was good, I would have preferred later time of the day because we were on vacation and we woke up at 3.45 for pick up of 5 am

Nice But Tricky - Good Views but not easy to know about schedule when you go to buy the tickets. Tickets are expensive for tourists. No good information outside the building
