Welcome to Panama
Many Americans are aware of the modern marvel that is the Panama Canal — the incredible feat of human engineering that famously connects the Atlantic with the Pacific. But savvy and seasoned travelers know that there is more to Panama than its world-changing conduit for maritime trade.
Located on the isthmus that bridges Central and South America, Panama is a prismatic gateway to a destination brimming with a blend of Indigenous, African, Spanish, and North American cultures and traditions. It's also characterized by its paradisiacal natural environments that promise everything from absolute relaxation to adrenaline-pumping adventures, depending on how one chooses to turn the dial.
By exploring the misty cloud forests around Boquete, venturing southwards to the bustling metropolis of Panama City, and eventually heading out to the pristine islands of the Caribbean, visitors will discover how Panama is a nation of startling beauty, rich biodiversity, fascinating history, and vibrant melting pot culture.
