- Panama Canal Railway. I didn’t talk about it this in the video because the railway was closed at the time I visited but this is on my bucket list. It’s a railway that goes along the Canal from Panama City in the Pacific to Colon on the Caribbean side. I plan on making a video in the future when I go back. If you’re in Panama and the railway is open. I definitely recommend experiencing this.

Dude I have to tip my hat to you. This was one of the best done videos I've seen. I've been watching videos about Panama for 2 months now. My girl is Panamanian so I've been thinking about going down there on a trip with her well done!

Thanks for visiting my country. You really did a great job with this review of Panama.🇵🇦❤️👍🏾 So sorry you never got a chance to visit Colon on the Atlantic. With all the bad report we get, you still get to appreciate the people, cultural highlights, cuisine and sites (ruins, coastline and beach). As a traveler myself, I am sure you would love it here.❤️🇵🇦

Excellent video. I was born and raised in the former Panama Canal Zone, and you did a fantastic job of covering the country in which I lived for the first 18 years of my life. Your video skills are awesome and your narration skills are also GREAT. Kudos to you, and may God continue to bless you with good health and happiness. Thanks so much for sharing. ♥✌🏽

We called Zonies..They use to have tee shirts printed.. in Corozal. 5yrs there. The city has definitely grown! Looks great. I guess Amador is the same.
I watched this video like a movie! Well made and edited, also, very informative. The music was excellent and the overall concept and shots were great. I am preparing for my Panama vacation and this was the best video so far.

RIP everyone everywhere. I started visiting Mexico from 1962 to 2011, and I obeyed all your laws, and even lived there part time as a second home. I speak Spanish as a second language, and I generously helped non beggars in the 🇺🇸, Zimbabwe, and Acapulco. I speak Spanish as a second language, and loved helping everyone to learn English. Like all people, I interacted with the good, bad and ugly, but God was always there for me, to help others. Always write down what you spend, and do not be greedy and stingy, and help non beggars on the quiet. Please keep written, audio, and video journals. everyday, and please dte, and the day of the week also. I never cared what haters think, and they were removed from my life, and God took care of the rest. I ghosted them first.
This was by far the most informative most interesting video on Panama on KZread. Traveling there next month this video was very helpful!

Absolutely gorgeous video! I'm convinced that this is what you should be doing full time. Maybe you already are? IDK but this is the best travel documentary I've seen and I've been watching A LOT of them to plan for my upcoming journey. I hit subscribe in the first 10 minutes! Amazing videography, editing, narration, captions - everything was on point. EDIT: Okay I just visited your full channel and discovered you are a super talented filmmaker of many genres. Not just a dude with a drone, LOL! I'm definitely going to check out your short films too! Blessings!

PS:- I have to say though this is one gr8 travel vlog. Kudos...
This is a great video! I went to Panama City in 2019 and stayed at the Hilton Panama, I remember walking along the Cinta Costera, taking the tour of Panama Canal, and taking the ride on the Amador Causeway on the way to Casco Viejo. Back then Casco Viejo didn't impress me because of the construction and shelled out old buildings, but I guess everything changes 5 years later and after the pandemic... Next trip to Panama I hope to revisit the same places and try new ones, specifically the Bio Museum, Gatun Lake, and the Canal on the Colon side. Definitely try their foods, especially sancocho! Your video skills are also top notch, and love the aerial shots of the city! Thank you again and have a blessed Thanksgiving!
Excellent commentary and well done
