Hotels in Panama City |Flight Info | Car Rentals | Hotels in Boquete.

When you come to Boquete from outside the country you will fly into Tocumen Airport in Panama City. You will need to transfer to Allbrook Airport for the one-hour flight to the city of David, near the Costa Rican border. Allow 60 minutes taxi driving time from one airport to the other. The last flight daily to David leaves at 5pm and you need to be there at 4pm. If your flight does not come in early enough to make this connection you will need to stay a night in Panama City and catch a morning flight. This may give you an opportunity to explore a bit of the city.

We highly recommend Tammy Liu with Panoramic Panama for your in-country travel connections. They have many discounts available for hotels, car rentals and tours. They are very professional and will respond to your requests promptly. They arrange all your transfers, hotel reservations, internal flight tickets, car hire and any tours.

The benefit of working with "Panoramic Panama" is that they can take care of any last minute changes for you and being local they have knowledge of which hotels and tours are best suited for your needs and budget.

All they need to know are your arrival and departure flight details, what hotel price range you would like, what is your in-country destination and they will take care of all the arrangements. It will save you time and hassle. You don't need to worry about speaking the language. Panoramic Panama offers you an easy one-stop shopping, leaving you stress free for your trip, especially if this is your first visit to Panama.

They have recently opened their own B&B for customers in the canal zone Quarry Heights, near Albrook Airport and Amador. Check it out. (click link)

They also have rooms and apartments for daily rental. Stay there for the night, then in the morning, straight to Albrook Airport for the next leg of the journey.
