Travel Stories, Cruise Reviews, and Cultural Adventures

Few journeys combine history, engineering, tropical scenery and sheer excitement quite like transiting the Panama Canal by cruise ship. We experienced it ourselves a few years ago, and it remains one of those travel memories that stays with you. From the fascinating shore excursions before and after the Canal to the moment a massive cruise ship is lifted through a series of enormous locks, a Panama Canal cruise is much more than a passage between two oceans.
