I have 10 days in Panama in mid April ... whats my best bets for must see places in Panama?

Travel Tips
Making a complement of the best answer of rivkarut2004, there is a little correction in Albrook Regional Airport ticket from Panama to Bocas, The cost is $164.00 roundtrip.
I recommend you to go on those ten days, first finish the city, i mean the Canal , Casco Viejo, National Theather, Cathedral Church, Las Ruinas de Panama La Vieja , El Coastway, Albrook Mall, Multiplaza, Museo de Arte Contemporaneo,

Then test the following panamanian restaurants that are not too expensive, but very exquisite:
El Chimborazo: located in Juan Diaz, for appetizer take a ceviche de Corvina and for meal take a fried fish with yuca... very exquisite
Flamencos: Located in Coastway of Amador, Take a spaqhetti with shrimps. very good
Parrillada Jimmy: Located in Avenida Balboa, Take a Broiled Octopus.... Excellent.
El trapiche: Located in Via Argentina, take a Hojaldre Sandwich with the topping of your choice...... Excellent.
Palacio Lung Fung: Located in Transistmica, take a dim sam breakfast, the best of the best.
All of those one are located in the middle of Panama, not far away, so you can go and taste. WAO.

Then Go and take the 1 hour plane in Albrook and go to Isla Bocas for 2 days. When you come go to El Valle de Anton, that is a place that my partner above me recommend, stay there 1 night, so you can go and pay $2.00 to hike in the forest. It is pretty, then when you come to Panama, you can go by the train to Colon and come back.

If i was you, i will do it in this order:
Day One: The Canal and Museo de Arte Contempor谩neo, eat at El trapiche the food i recommend you.
Day Two: Take a breakfast in Lung Fung, Then walk in all over the Coastway de Amador watching the places and taking the breeze, eat in Flamencos there, then come back and check Albrook Mall (Very Big).
Day Three: Go to El Casco Viejo, Cathedral Church and the National Theather. You can see the old houses with a lot of years and other ones with an old fashion but very beautiful. Then go to Mi Pueblito, beautiful place for foreigners.
Day Four: Ruinas de Panama La Vieja, Multiplaza, and go to eat at Parrillada Jimmy. Delicious.
Day Five and Six: The plane to Isla Bocas.
Day Seven: Train to Colon
Day Eight and Nine: Stay in El Valle de Anton and come back to Panama City.
Day Ten: Walk all over the Via Venetto, after that take a Taxi and go to eat at la Tablita, then go to Multicentro.


Those are top places to go and visit. Now i have to mention the bars and take some beers if you drink, like hooters, fridays or you can go to a cheap one as i told you La Tablita... very good beers and the sell a choripan sandwich..... excellent

Nightclubs, that are very inn are People and Moods located in calle Uruguay.

Those are the places that you dont have to leave Panama before visiting them.

Assuming you will be home based in Panam谩 City鈥?of course the city tours: Panam谩 Canal, Casco Viejo, Panam谩 Viejo, Mi Pueblito. Then if you are into shopping you can take another day shopping at Albrook Mall and Los Pueblos http://www.panamaexpertos.com/forum/topi...
(most of Central and South America book shopping tours to Panama). For a beautiful leisurely day take the train to Colon, it runs along side the canal from Panama City to Colon, so you will see the whole length of the canal. As a bonus Colon http://www.panamaexpertos.com/forum/topi... is where the largest free zone area is, so great shopping. Then I鈥檇 book a hotel room in El Valle http://www.panamaexpertos.com/forum/topi...
which is the second largest volcanic crater in the world with a beautiful sleepy little town nestled in it. From there you can travel to the beach forty minutes away http://www.panamaexpertos.com/forum/topi...
, so that will kill a couple of days. If you to squeeze in a few days on an island, take the plane from Albrook regional airport to Bocas Del Toro, I think it will be less than $100 round trip.

Other suggestions:
Isla Grande
San Blas
Pearl Island
Contradora
Portobello
The Darien and Lago Bayano
The Smithsonians
And a lot more I'm sure I'm forgetting.

There鈥檚 lots more to do here, but then you鈥檝e only got ten days and I鈥檓 assuming you do want to sleep some.
