Description
Learn how this engineering marvel was built and transited between two sets of Locks. The ship departs at the Flamenco Island in Amador, where the La Playita is located and goes right under the Americas bridge, passes by the Balboa port on one side and the Rodman former American navy base on the other, and heads into the Miraflores Locks; the ship is raised up to 54 feet in a two steps process. his activity is achieved by sending water from Pedro Miguel’s lake by gravity to fill the chambers where the ship is locked. Once the process is finished, get into Pedro Miguel’s Lake. Calling at Gamboa you are then transferred to a bus to return to Balboa approximately six hours after your pickup. Customers will be picked up from any hotel located in Panama City.
