Panama Canal Cruises from $599*
The Panama Canal offers a special vacation experience you won’t find anywhere else in the world.
Cruise to the Panama Canal for marvels, majestic creatures and magnificent native cultures. Experience the thrill of your cruise ship being lifted and lowered 170 feet by the man-made canal’s famous locks, and gaze upon the enormity of this stunning feat of engineering. Head ashore for interaction with the Embera Indian Villages, or possibly a heart-racing zip line through the jungle, where you can view rare species and breathtaking forestry.
Cruise to the Panama Canal for an unforgettable vacation.
Sailing through the man-made Panama Canal provides cruisers with a true appreciation for engineering.

When cruising through the Panama Canal, you’ll not only have a chance to appreciate this engineering marvel, but also the wonderful natural beauty surrounding the canal. Featured below are some of the best things to do when cruising through the Panama Canal:
Though less than 100 miles long the Panama Canal is an impressive waterway that has changed your life for the better. Experience a popular or luxury cruise through the canal to get a real idea of its significance.
