About Cositas de Panamá

A registered Panama tour operator, run like a family.

Born in Panamá. Designed for travelers who want to feel a place, not just see it.

About the company

Cositas de Panamá — the little things that make Panamá, Panamá.

Cositas de Panamá is a registered Panama tour operator (CDP Tours, Travel & Logistics S.EP.). We started the company because we kept hearing the same thing from friends visiting: "I felt like I saw Panama, but I never really got to know it."

So we built the kind of company we'd want for our own friends — private days, real local guides, flexible pacing, and the freedom to follow your curiosity. No vans full of strangers. No fixed scripts. Just Panama, shared with you.

Today Cositas de Panamá hosts travelers from all over the world — from solo travelers to families, cruise passengers and corporate groups — listed on Tripadvisor, Viator, GetYourGuide, Expedia and Kayak.
