The Panama City Tour is
offered throughout the day, however, we offer special
sunset and evening tours for those interested. Due to
the fact that we are required by law to take off and
land at a lit airfield, we must return to the Airport
regardless of our departure point.
Panama City, undoubtedly Central America’s most modern
and cosmopolitan city, can be readily seen with just a
short helicopter flight from neighboring Albrook
Airport.
Just on the outskirts of downtown Panama, your
flight will take you over the city’s most popular
tourist destinations, as well within easy view of the
country’s famous banking district.
Upon liftoff, your flight path takes you along the right
side of the Canal to the midway point between Miraflores
and Pedro Miguel Locks, towards the Bahai Temple. Flying
at approx. 1,000 ft. we'll turn towards Costa del Este, which is just east of Panama Viejo.
Then, we'll
fly towards the coast and Punta Paitilla, rounding the
point passing Balboa Statue, which is located on Ave.
Balboa, and on towards Ancon Hill. Ave. Balboa,
overlooking the Bay of Panama, is home to numerous
restaurants, banks, insurance companies, hotels and
Punta Paitilla, the city’s most expensive and luxurious
residential area.
Half way up that Hill we
turn towards the Causeway, and if time permits we'll
continue out to the three islands that are connected by
the Causeway: Perico, Naos and Flamenco, which is the
island furthest out. After circling the islands, our
trip takes us straight back, passing the bridge and
Panama Canal Commission Building before reaching the
airport.
