The tour was too basic with limited explanation on the tour. The guide was ok but lack enthusiasm to showcase the market and the travel.
The maket was really nice, we bought some nice souvenirs.
A great private tour with Alfonso. Very knowledgeable spoke great English. Took us to the flower market, Panama hat shop and for Bischocos. Fantastic included lunch, paid extra to get Cuy, don’t be afraid it’s GOOD! Very happy with tour, guild went above and beyond. Great indigenous market place too.
This trip is well worth the cost.Marco is a wonderful guide.
