Transportation Info Only

TAXIS Info Only, NO TAXI SERVICE! 

Taxis are cheap and plentiful in Coronado but, before you get into a taxi, make sure to state your destination and settle on a fare. Panamanian taxis don’t have meters, but there are standard fares between Panama City's neighborhoods. All taxis are yellow and are everywhere; waiting time is maximum 2-3 minutes.

Depending on your comfort level, you can also consider using Uber. The service is reliable and cheap, and the drivers are helpful and friendly.

BUSES, RENTAL CARS, AND SPEEDY FLIGHTS

Buses are the cheapest way to explore Panama. Most are charter buses that are comfortable and efficient. Rental cars are another option for travelers interested in exploring the region at their own pace (and who are comfortable driving in a foreign country). 

Domestic flights are the fastest way to travel to many parts of Panama. In more remote areas — like the Comarca de Guna Yala (San Blas Islands) and the Archipiélago de Las Perlas (Pearl Islands) — they are the only sensible option.
