Panama - Domed train mystery

[Sydney Oz]

This tour does not appear on Brilliance 2 Dec excursions. Thinking of doing the Panama City bus trip. Any feedback on what happened to the train and whether the bus trip is worthwhile would be appreciated.

 

Thanks heaps.

I talked with RCI by phone yesterday and was told that the excursions would not be posted until mid Nov. Seem very late to me but as you can see only one is posted in the canal.

The excursion for the train is now posted on the RCCL website. After reviewing the itenerary we plan to take the bus since the train does not go all the way into Panama City. Hope this helps.

Thanks for your help. We have also decided on the bus and my husband wants to see Panama City.

We took the train and is was a fine excrusion but friends took the Grand Panama Excursion -- visiting Indian Village and Gutan Locks and raved about it. It sounded like they had a much better day than we did.

This is the description Carnival gives for the grand tour I wonder if this is the same one your friends took?
