Panama Travel Tips for Arriving Prepared

Seasoned travelers praise Panama, the vibrant country in Central America wavering on the line connecting its ingrained cultural past to its modernized standard of living, for being a unique and desirable yet not overcrowded travel destination. Panamas rich history is evident throughout the landscape, from Spanish forts along the coastline of each ocean to the colonial homes and brick roads of Casco Viejo. Visitors marvel at ancient reminders of Panamas past while enjoying the convenience of a modern communication infrastructure, clean drinking water, good roads and convenient transportation options. Following are just a few tips to help you prepare for your arrival in Panama:

-plan Ahead. The best time of year to visit Panama depends on what you want to do during your visit. If you plan to take advantage of the multitude of outdoor activities such as hiking, snorkeling, sailing or sight seeing tours, take into consideration that the dry season is from mid-December to mid-April (but bear in mind that you will pay a premium for airfare and accommodations during this season). If partying is your thing and you are looking for more bustle, you may want to visit during The Carnival of the City of Las Tablas, an elaborate festival starting on the Friday before Ash Wednesday and lasting through Ash Wednesday each year.

-Bring the required documents. United States and canadian citizens are required to show a valid passport and tourist card to visit Panama. A tourist card will likely be added for a $5 fee when you purchase airfare, and will allow you to spend up to 90 days in Panama. If you do not have a current passport, be sure to obtain one as early as possible to pay the lowest rate and to allow time (usually a few weeks) for processing.

-Get the recommended vaccinations. At least several weeks before your departure, visit a health professional to obtain all of the recommended vaccines for visiting Panama. You may need to be vaccinated against yellow fever, hepatitis A, and typhoid among others.

-Enjoy nature but protect yourself from it. Due to Panamas proximity to the equator, sunburn caused by exposure to the suns intense ultraviolet rays can put a damper on your vacation and harm your health. Always apply a UVA/UVB protection sunscreen before and during outdoor activities. Additionally, wear proper clothing and repellant to protect yourself from ticks, mosquitoes and other insects that accompany the thrill of outdoor adventures.

-Use transportation wisely. Taxis are plentiful in Panama and provide a convenient means of transportation to visitors. Fares are low, hovering around the $4 range to get anywhere within Panama City. Be aware that a taxi waiting outside your hotel will cost significantly more than one hailed from the street. Taxis are not metered, so be sure to negotiate your fare with the driver from the start.

The reassurance of being properly prepared for your trip to Panama will allow you to spend less time worrying and more time enjoying your stay in this cultural, tropical paradise.
