We took a “partial tour” (5- 6 hours) rather than a full (12 hour) tour. Glad we took shorter tour. Went through 2 locks. Tour is OK, not great, if you have seen other locks. It gets very hot on the boat while the boat is in a lock and not moving.
Despite requesting, we did not get vegetarian food at lunch.
The tour operator is not very responsive. Although promised, we did not get our departure timing until well after 5 pm the day before. We had to call and email before getting the info.
Chris, the onboard guide was excellent. He gave a lot of canal history and other info along the way. – via
(Translated by Google) Excellent experience of navigating the cause where ships, ships, cruise ships and all kinds of vessels pass through the Panama Canal. In my experience I was able to visit and see some places on land around the cause, which is rich in species of wild fauna and exuberantly attractive flora.

Excelente experiencia la de navegar por el cause por dónde atraviesan las naves, buques, cruceros y todo tipo de embarcaciones que dan su paso por el Canal de Panamá. En mi experiencia pude recorrer y conocer algunos sitios en tierra en derredor al cause, el cual está rico en especies de faunas silvestres y una flora exhuberantemente atractiva. – via
