We will explore different aspects of Panama's rich history! We will start the tour with a stop at Sisu Coffee Studio, where we will enjoy a specialty coffee tasting while the different production processes are explained. Get ready to enjoy the best coffee in Panama, awarded internationally!
Then, we will visit one of two sites: the emblematic Church of La Merced with its Museum or the fascinating Museum of La Mola. The church of La Merced encompasses centuries of European cultural influence and contains various religious artifacts with historical value within its museum. On the other hand, the Museo de la Mola builds a bridge between the modern & colonial eras, along with the nation's Native American past. It's home of numerous artistic textiles of the indigenous Guna culture. We will finish the tour with a visit to the vibrant Plaza Herrera and we will understand the highlights of its history.
