Ep 64: Panama City Travel Vlog: What I Wish I Knew Before My First Trip
This is the honest story of my first vacation in Panama City, Panama and what you need to know before you go.
Welcome back to the Age Has No Limit podcast! I'm your host, Patrice Davis.
While many videos focus on the low cost of living and the best places to retire in Panama (like Boquete or Coronado), this episode is different. This is the story of our recent vacation in Panama Cityā€”the sights, the culture, the food, and the things I wish I knew before I went.
Whether you're planning a trip or just curious about this incredible country, this episode will give you a real feel for the experience and help you appreciate Panama, its people, and its culture on a deeper level.
In this Panama City travel vlog, we explore:
- Staying at the charming La Concordia Boutique Hotel in the historic Casco Viejo, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
- Visiting the Geisha Coffee Museum and learning about Panama's famous coffee.
- A trip to the Miraflores Locks on the Panama Canalā€”an absolute engineering marvel!
- A boat tour on Lake Gatun where we saw howler monkeys, tamarin monkeys, and even white-faced monkeys!
- A catamaran day trip to Taboga Island with Red Cat Catamaran (highly recommend!).
- Exploring the Biomuseo and the modern Obarrio neighborhood.
- Experiencing the vibrant nightlife with live salsa dancing at Teatro Amador.
- Eating our way through the city, from the top-rated La Tapa Del Coco to the delicious Fonda Lo Que Hay.
