    - Panama Canal Railway. I didn’t talk about it this in the video because the railway was closed at the time I visited but this is on my bucket list. It’s a railway that goes along the Canal from Panama City in the Pacific to Colon on the Caribbean side. I plan on making a video in the future when I go back. If you’re in Panama and the railway is open. I definitely recommend experiencing this.

With all the bad report we get, you still get to appreciate the people, cultural highlights, cuisine and sites (ruins, coastline and beach). As a traveler myself, I am sure you would love it here.❤️🇵🇦

    This is a great video! I went to Panama City in 2019 and stayed at the Hilton Panama, I remember walking along the Cinta Costera, taking the tour of Panama Canal, and taking the ride on the Amador Causeway on the way to Casco Viejo. Back then Casco Viejo didn't impress me because of the construction and shelled out old buildings, but I guess everything changes 5 years later and after the pandemic... Next trip to Panama I hope to revisit the same places and try new ones, specifically the Bio Museum, Gatun Lake, and the Canal on the Colon side. Definitely try their foods, especially sancocho! Your video skills are also top notch, and love the aerial shots of the city! Thank you again and have a blessed Thanksgiving!

    What an amazing video and great representation of Panama. If you aren’t making money creating videos full-time you should be. Dude you have captured the true essence of Panama. Thank you.

    Really well done! Headed to Panama in a couple months and want to ask if you can share the process for getting a drone registered. I've done some research, but wanted to see if you can share tips / your experience

    I was in Panama City in 1973. Little from then survives

    These travel videos are great but could you please include the cost of staying in each hotels per night, thank you. Keep up the great work!

      Hey Arlene, thanks for watching. I did initially think about adding the cost of lodging but realized it fluctuates frequently. However, I will most likely start adding it in, in future videos to give a ball estimate. :)

      Thank you so very much for responding! Yes, a ball park figure would really help. Thanks again for the fantastic videos!
