Activity itinerary

Iglesia de la Merced
  • 30m
In the Church of La Merced, travelers discover one of the most important colonial gems of Casco Viejo. They learn how this church was dismantled stone by stone and moved from Old Panama after Henry Morgan’s pirate attack in 1671, becoming a symbol of the city’s resilience. They know details of its colonial and baroque architecture, its original stone front page and the stories inside, such as altars, religious images and its cultural value as a World Heritage Site.
Plaza Herrera
  • 10m
In Plaza Herrera, travelers discover a space full of history and elegance. They learn about the figure of General Tomas Herrera, hero of Isthmian independence, whose equestrian statue stands in the center of the square. You know how this place was once a bullring and a social meeting point, until it was transformed into a place surrounded by imposing buildings of the Republican era, some restored as luxury hotels and restaurants.
Museo de la Mola
  • 25m
  • Admission ticket included
At the Mola Museum, travelers immerse themselves in the cultural richness of the Guna people. They learn about the origin and evolution of mola, a handmade garment made with superimposed fabrics that form designs full of symbolism and color. They discover how each piece reflects the worldview, traditions and identity of Guna women, as well as appreciate up close ancient and contemporary molas that show the fusion between art, history and cultural resistance. It is an experience that connects with Panama’s living heritage.
Iglesia San Jose
  • 20m
At St. Joseph's Church, travelers discover one of the city's most famous treasures: the legendary Golden Altar. They learn how this baroque altar, covered with gold leaf, was saved from the looting of the pirate Henry Morgan in Old Panama, thanks to the cunning of the merchant friars who painted it black to hide its value.
Museo De Historia De Panama
  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
n the Museum of the History of Panama, travelers take a tour of the most important stages of the country, from colonial times to the consolidation of the republic. They learn about the process of independence from Spain, the separation of Colombia and the construction of the Panama Canal, through documents, objects and historical pieces that tell the political and social evolution of the isthmus.
Plaza de Francia
  • 15m
In Plaza Francia, travelers discover a monument that honors the courage and sacrifice of the thousands of workers — mostly French — who gave their lives during the construction of the Panama Canal. They learn about the vision of engineer Ferdinand de Lesseps, the challenges of diseases such as yellow fever and malaria, and how this project transformed the history of the isthmus. They also enjoy the view towards the Bridge of the Americas and the Amador Causeway.
