Beyond its beautiful waterfront views, the Amador Causeway tells one of the most fascinating stories in Panama.
Join a licensed local historian on a relaxed small-group walking tour through this unique district, where you'll discover how a former U.S. military zone became one of Panama City's most scenic public spaces.
Along the way, you'll learn about the construction of the Panama Canal, the transfer of the Canal Zone to Panama, the leadership of Omar Torrijos, the legacy of Manuel Noriega, and the events that shaped the country's modern identity. Rather than simply visiting monuments, you'll understand the people and decisions behind them.
We'll stop at landmarks including the Korea-Panama Friendship Monument, the Mausoleum of Omar Torrijos, Edificio 8, the exterior of Frank Gehry's striking Biomuseo, and several panoramic viewpoints overlooking the Pacific entrance to the Panama Canal, the city skyline, and Ancón Hill.
With a maximum of just ten guests, there's plenty of time for questions, conversation, and photographs. Whether you're passionate about history, architecture, politics, or simply want to explore an area most visitors overlook, this tour offers a deeper perspective on Panama beyond the traditional sightseeing routes.
