Panama Old Town (Casco Viejo) from Panama City Airport (PTY) by private transfer: €40 per car (1–3 people) or €60 per van (4–8), fixed per vehicle and identical to the checkout price. On the road it is 26 km via Corredor Sur, roughly 30 min when traffic is light and 30–40 min when it is not.
Meeting point: The driver waits in the public arrivals area of the terminal where you exit after immigration, baggage claim and customs (Terminal 1 or Terminal 2), holding a sign with your name. Flight tracking is included, the first hour after landing is free waiting time, and the driver carries your bags to the car.
Casco Viejo, officially Casco Antiguo or the district of San Felipe, is the colonial quarter of Panama City on a small peninsula in the bay, a UNESCO World Heritage Site together with the ruins of Panama Viejo. The drive from Tocumen is about 26 km. Cars usually follow the tolled Corredor Sur to Punta Paitilla and continue along the Cinta Costera on Avenida Balboa, and the last section uses the coastal viaduct that curves around the peninsula to the old town entrance. Without the expressway, the route through the inner city along Vía España or Avenida Central takes longer.
The old town is compact, with narrow one-way streets, squares and restored colonial houses now used as hotels, restaurants and bars. Plaza de la Independencia with the Metropolitan Cathedral, Plaza Bolívar, the Church of San José with its golden altar and Plaza de Francia at the tip of the peninsula are all within a few minutes' walk of each other. Cars can enter most streets, but parking is scarce and some lanes are closed to traffic on busy evenings, so drop-off is often at the nearest corner. The Presidential Palace area has restricted access.
Public transport instead: Metro de Panamá Line 2 (airport branch) from Aeropuerto station (free airport shuttle from Terminal 1 door 2 / Terminal 2 door 18) to Corredor Sur (change to the Line 2 main line), Mon-Fri 05:00-23:00, Sat 05:00-22:00, Sun 07:00-22:00, 1 change. No direct public transport from the airport: after the Line 2 airport branch and Line 2 to San Miguelito, Line 1 runs south-west through the city towards Albrook, and the old town is a further walk or bus ride from the nearest Line 1 stations.
