Great tour of the military history & canal - Great tour with Archie. Our military family lived here 50+ years ago and one of us was born here. Archie went out of his way to show us the area and buildings where our family worked and hung out. He even drove us by the hospital where one of us was born. He would stop so we could take pictures to send back to family. Archie has good knowledge of the military history, how different cultures contributed the area, and the best spots to go. We even stopped by a street side fruit market and a grocery store that family shopped at when they lived here. Very special for us. Our family loved the pictures and seeing the changes. Archie timed the canal perfectly. We got to see a huge boat navigate through the canal. If you are coming back to Panama to understand the military history or see things you heard about from military family, this is the tour for you. I searched all over for a tour that would show us Howard, Albrook, the canal, and give us a sense of what life was like 50+ years ago as an American living here. Archie did exactly that. This is the only tour I could find that provided that type of experience. Thank you for a great day.
