Gambaran keseluruhan

The tour begins with pickup from your hotel, hostel, or Airbnb in Panama City. We’ll drive for about one hour to Colón, on the Atlantic side, to visit the impressive Agua Clara Locks — part of the Panama Canal’s expansion and the only place where you can see Neo-Panamax ships crossing. With 100% certainty of seeing ships in transit, either at Agua Clara or Gatun Locks, this tour guarantees an unforgettable Canal experience.

After approximately 35 minutes, we’ll continue to the Atlantic Bridge, the largest and tallest bridge in Panama, offering stunning views of the Canal and surrounding landscape. Along the way, we’ll stop to see the remains of the unfinished French Canal, an abandoned 19th-century project that paved the way for today’s canal.

Our final stop is the historic Gatun Locks, in operation since 1914, where you can watch ships pass just a few meters away, guided by powerful electric locomotives.

After this enriching 4.5-hour experience, we’ll return to Panama City.

Agua Clara Locks

50m
Tidak termasuk tiket masuk

Agua Clara Locks are part of the Panama Canal Expansion, inaugurated in 2016 on the Atlantic side of the Canal near Colón. These modern locks were built to accommodate the massive Neo-Panamax vessels, which are too large for the original locks. The complex uses rolling gates and water-saving basins that recycle 60% of the water with each transit, making it an impressive feat of sustainable engineering. Visitors can enjoy a panoramic observation deck overlooking Gatun Lake and watch enormous ships pass through, while learning how the expansion has strengthened Panama’s role as a key hub of global trade.

Atlantic Bridge (Sambil lalu)

The Atlantic Bridge is an impressive cable-stayed bridge that crosses the Panama Canal at its Atlantic entrance near Colón. Officially inaugurated in August 2019, it is the longest span concrete cable-stayed bridge in the world, with a main span of 530 meters (1,739 ft) and a total length of 4.6 kilometers (2.8 miles). Its soaring pylons rise 212 meters (696 ft) above sea level, allowing a clearance of 75 meters (246 ft) so that the largest ships can safely pass beneath. Built entirely in reinforced concrete to resist Panama’s tropical climate and salinity, the Atlantic Bridge is both an engineering marvel and a stunning architectural landmark. Besides its functional role connecting the provinces of Colón and Panamá Oeste, it offers travelers spectacular views of the Canal, the rainforest, and the Caribbean Sea, making it a highlight for anyone visiting the Atlantic side of the Canal.

Gatun Locks

30m
Tidak termasuk tiket masuk

Gatun Locks, on the Atlantic side of the Panama Canal, are among the original locks opened in 1914. With three chambers, they lift ships 26 meters (85 ft) to Gatun Lake. The new Gatun Visitor Center features panoramic observation decks and interactive exhibits, offering visitors a modern space to watch vessels in transit while learning about the Canal’s past and expansion.

Gatun Dam

15m

Gatun Dam is one of the largest and most important structures of the Panama Canal. Built between 1907 and 1913 across the Chagres River, it created Gatun Lake, which at the time was the world’s largest artificial lake. The dam measures about 2.3 kilometers (1.4 miles) long and up to 30 meters (98 ft) high, and its construction was a key part of making the Canal possible. Gatun Lake serves as both the main water reservoir that powers the Canal’s locks and a vital navigation channel for ships crossing between oceans. Beyond its engineering importance, the surrounding area is rich in wildlife and lush tropical forest, making it a scenic highlight for visitors to the Canal’s Atlantic side.
