I am an archaeologist and I like to share what I have learned over the years. I have worked in museums and with visitors for a long time, which allows me to approach guided tours from a professional point of view, bringing a novel approach.
( Tour for people who enjoy outdoor walks, on stony ground ).
In 1519, Pedrarias Dávila reached the Bay of Panama and founded the city that became the Capital of Castilla del Oro , a strategic point for the Carrera de Indias and the origin of the current Republic of Panama. Just over 100 years later, in January 1671 , Henry Morgan invaded it, causing its destruction and abandonment.
The ruins that remain today, remains of churches, houses and public buildings from the 17th century, keep the secrets of the city and of those inhabitants who one day abandoned their homes to save their lives. Mysteries of yesteryear, that little by little archeology is revealing.
Join me to meet her ! You will be able to imagine this ancient city with the eyes of those who inhabited it just before its ruin.
Itinerary :
* This tour is not suitable for people with reduced or different physical capacities. For you, I have another route, just as interesting and enjoyable, between my tours.
I'll wait for you inside the archaeological site, next to the Plaza Mayor stop, near the museum. You will recognize me by the GuruWalk logo
Free tours do not have a set price, instead, each person gives the guru at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate (these usually range from €10 to $50 depending on satisfaction with the tour).
