⚠️ Conseils de Voyage Essentiels Panama

🚇

Use the Metro

Panama City has the only subway system in Central America. It is incredibly clean, air-conditioned, vastly cheaper than Uber, and bypasses the city's horrendous traffic jams.

Drink Geisha Coffee

In Boquete, seek out Geisha coffee. It is arguably the most expensive and sought-after coffee bean in the world, and it's grown right there on the volcanic slopes.

☂️

Respect the Rain

If you visit between May and November, do all your trekking, sightseeing, and transport before 1:00 PM. The skies almost always open up in the mid-afternoon.

паспо́рт

Carry Your Passport

Police checkpoints are incredibly common on the Interamerican Highway. You must technically carry your actual passport (not a copy) by law.

🛡️ Assurance Voyage Recommandée

Get travel insurance for peace of mind.
