Your private guide will meet you outside Colon Home Port, holding a sign with your name. From there, your journey begins to explore one of the world’s most remarkable engineering achievements.

​

The tour commences at the Agua Clara Locks, part of the expanded Panama Canal designed to accommodate the massive New Panamax ships. Here, you will witness the impressive scale of the locks, which are over 1,400 feet long and 160 feet wide, with chambers filled with millions of gallons of water to lift and lower vessels. Your guide will provide detailed explanations about the lock’s design, operation, and the engineering innovations that allow it to handle the largest ships in the world. This stop offers excellent opportunities to photograph these modern marvels up close.

​

Subsequently, visit the historic Gatun Locks, completed in 1914, to appreciate the original canal engineering and its historical importance. Experiencing both the modern and historic locks provides a comprehensive understanding of the Panama Canal’s evolution and its vital role in global trade.
