The Experience

We’d barely cleared customs at Tocumen Airport when I spotted our driver—he was holding a sign with my name, which felt oddly reassuring after a long flight. The arrivals hall was humming, that kind of sticky heat you only get in Panama City, but as soon as we slid into the SUV, the air conditioning hit me like a small miracle. There was chilled bottled water waiting (I grabbed two, not ashamed), and our driver just smiled and said, “Bienvenidos.” I tried to answer in Spanish. He grinned—maybe I butchered it, but he appreciated the effort.

The drive into Panama City wasn’t what I expected. It’s fast at first—expressways cutting through green stretches—and then suddenly you’re surrounded by color: painted houses, street vendors waving at traffic, bursts of music from somewhere behind tinted windows. Our guide pointed out the old town skyline just before sunset; honestly, I didn’t realize how close everything was. We talked about where to eat later (he had opinions), and he even showed us how to connect to the van’s WiFi so we could message home. Little things like that made it feel less like a transfer and more like someone looking out for us.

I kept thinking how easy it all felt compared to other arrivals—no haggling over taxis or worrying about luggage space (the trunk swallowed our bags). The city lights started flickering on as we got closer to our hotel. It’s funny: you don’t notice how tired you are until you’re finally comfortable. Anyway, I still remember that first cool breath of AC after the airport heat—honestly, that’s what stuck with me most.
