About Panama

One of the world’s greatest engineering marvels, a transit of the Panama Canal is a must-do for many cruisers, and there are options for a full or partial crossing. Ships dock in Colon, 40 miles outside Panama City, and visitors can head for the bright lights of the capital city where skyscrapers rub shoulders with the UNESCO-listed Casco Viejo neighbourhood, featured in the James Bond film, Quantum of Solace.
