            Panama Shore Excursion FAQs<\/strong><\/h3>\n

            Traveling to a new country can be a bit intimidating sometimes, but we try to assist cruise ship passengers to make sure their experience is smooth sailing.  Below are some of the most frequently asked questions when visiting Panama’s cruise ship ports.<\/p>\n

            Q: Can you pick us up directly from the cruise ship pier in Panama?<\/strong>
            \nYes! In most cases, your guide will meet you right outside the pier or just a short walk from your ship. No complicated transfers required.<\/p>\n

            Q: What time zone is Panama in?<\/strong>
            \nPanama City is on EST (UTC – 5) year round.  All activities run on             local Panama time<\/a>, not ship time depending the time of year.  If you are in doubt, do not ask someone on your cruise ship what time it is, step off the ship and check with a local instead.<\/p>\n

            Q: Are the tours suitable for seniors or those with limited mobility?<\/strong>
            \nAbsolutely. Most tours are designed with comfort in mind, and we work with small groups so there\u2019s less rushing and waiting. Plus, you can always choose the activity level that fits you best. If you have limitations or concerns, just contact one of our Activity Specialists in Panama and we can help arrange an excursion perfect for you.<\/p>\n

            Q: What if I want to see the Panama Canal but also something else?<\/strong>
            \nEasy! Many tours combine canal visits with cultural or nature experiences, so you don\u2019t have to choose. Monkey Island + Canal, Canal + City highlights\u2014you get the best of both worlds.  There is so much more to Panama than the canal!<\/p>\n

            Q: What is the weather like in Panama?  How should I pack?<\/strong>
            \nPanama is in the tropics, so the weather is extremely unpredictable.  However, you can predict it will be hot and muggy with a definite chance of cooling showers, and a definite chance of sunny skies.  All of this within just an hours time sometimes.  When packing, plan for both.  Layers, rain ponchos, shoes that can get wet, and quick dry sport clothing are recommended for just about all activities in Panama.<\/p>\n

            Q: How much time will I need for a shore excursion in Panama?<\/strong>
            \nMost tours are designed to fit within cruise schedules, typically lasting 4\u20136 hours. We\u2019ll make sure you\u2019re back at the pier in plenty of time to reboard.  When in doubt, just ask an Activities Specialist and we can be sure the excursion you want will work for your time in port.  And if not, we can always custom design something for you.<\/p>\n

            Q: Why book with The Real Deal Tours instead of the cruise line?<\/strong>
            \nSmaller groups, more personalized experiences, and better prices. While cruise line tours often mean buses full of 40+ people, our tours keep it small so you can actually enjoy the adventure.<\/p>\n
