Highs & Lows
I Loved the attitude of the people with the visitors, everybody is very friendly even when you're crossing the street!
Metro is nice but very limited of stations, it should have more.
Q & A
What would you have changed?
The way I traveled from Colombia to Panama, It was very dangerous, and flying with a low-cost airline would have saved me a lot of money
Anything go wrong during the trip?
Everything that has to do with boats and islands!
How was the food?
there are several bars and restaurants in "Casco Viejo", I don't have any specific recommendation because I ate pizza and cooked at the hostel
What tips would you give a friend?
use low-cost airlines, they will save you a lot of money and try to carry as little luggage as possible
Packing tips?
use a small backpack to carry all your stuff, and if you have a musical instrument it would be way better because you can make money while you're traveling
Transportation Tips?
Metro in Panama is not that useful since the stations don't go to all the city but public buses are great and very comfortable
Any surprises?
none
Booking details?
use www.booking.com to make your reservations, in my opinion, travel agencies are not necessary but if it's your first trip you can use them to get used to traveling.
Lodging
We stayed in some kind of hostel but I need to mention that it was the only one the island had
