Best places: Tourist attractions in Cristóbal, Panama

👍👍 Great history, and well organized. Kind staff- awesome to get to see not one but 2 ships go through! I know some times there is not much traffic but that day was a busy one :). Please allow yourself a lot of time because if boats go through it's easy to miss out on the history if you're on a timeli...

👍👍 I had the opportunity to visit both the Miraflores Locks in Panama City and the Agua Clara Locks in Colón. If you are visiting Panama and want to see the Locks, but can only see one, I would recommend the Agua Clara Locks. While it is nearly a 2-hour drive from Panama City, the experience is far su...

👍👍 A relatively easy hike on well-marked trails. $4 per person, and you get a wrist tag. The young man at the entrance office was pleasant and spoke English. The butterfly house was closed for maintenance (July 1, 2021) but we could see some butterflies flying around inside. We started on the trail tha...

👍 If you go here from Panama City. I highly recommend taking a group tour. It is a huge pain to get here by bus. And once you get to colon you will be in the very bad part of town at the bus station. If you don't speak Spanish it will be miserable.if you are non Latino the first police officer you p...

Urban wildlife refuge offering easy-to-moderate trails, picnic areas & dedicated lookout points.

👍👍 Nice place, fun for the kids. I think its a little bit expensive, $20 will only last for 30 to 45 mins or so. But it is in a mall, so thats how it works typically. Somewhat small, but a good selection. Overall, good fun, not overly expensive, and really nice and friendly staff.

Tropical forest national park with trails & streams inhabited by monkeys, sloths & birds.

Historic site featuring 18th-century remnants of a Spanish fortification & sweeping water views.

👍👍 Transiting the Panama Canal was an amazing experience. It took all day (from before sunrise until after sunset). Even though it is slow going for the ship there is so much to see and learn about. It had been crazy hot and the sun was very intense earlier in the day, by this time it was evening, c...

👍 Opens at 8:00 AM

👍👍 Great hike! It was raining pretty hard when we started but the paths are well laid out and taken care of. If you like a most strenuous hike start out to the left of the playgroup area. This is medium but it’s up stairs most of the way. We did the 3 mile loop and really enjoyed it but it was not a be...

This 9,000-acre tropical forest preserve with walking trails offers lush greenery & wildlife.

Huge area of forests, rivers, beaches & coral reefs with military forts & activities such as diving.

👍👍 My kids and my nephew had a great time at this location. They have a lot of trampoline activities available for the kids to play with. I will definitely take my kids there again for a fun time Jumping and bouncing around. They were so worn out when we got back home, everyone was ready to go sleep

👍👍 Worth the $30 (for tourists) to walk the very nice trails, climb the observation tower, and watch the hummingbirds at the feeders. They had very nice bathrooms and a good selection of drinks and snacks. Note for folks catching an uber there that unless your driver has a very sturdy car/truck, they w...

Botanical garden with a variety of tropical plants plus a zoo with monkeys, jaguars & other animals.

Serene rainforest resort on the Río Chagres, offering dining & a club, plus a spa & guided tours.

😠 Not to be dramatic but this is one of the scariest places i’ve ever been to in my entire life. I’ve seen end of the world movies where the setting looked better than this neighborhood in real life.

Cable-stayed bridge with a modern design carrying 6 lanes of traffic over the Panama Canal.

👍👍 I think the government keep the nature very well.A perfect nature.
