Do one or both sites, for the walking tour we can meet in the colonial city or arrange pick up by writting us a message.

Casco Antiguo de San Felipe is where the new City of Panama was founded in 1673 (the 350 year anniversary was in 2023), built only 5 miles Southwest from where the first city (Panama Viejo archeological site) was left in ruins after the fires started by the Spanish colonials themselves, in an effort to save the strategic position crucial for World Trade since the Pacific Ocean was discovered in 1513, and to avoid the collapse of the Spanish Empire right there and then, to the most famous pirate of the second half of the Spanish Colony, their nemesis who commanded the Rogue attack in 1671: Captain Henry Morgan.

Both are World Heritage Sites as per UNESCO.
