Comfortable liners offer many services on board - from watching your favorite movies to satellite Internet.

- Russian travelers do not need visas to enter Panama resorts if their stay in the country does not exceed 90 days.

Panama is almost a dwarf state in Central America. It is smaller in area than the Moscow region and you can get from one end of the country to the other in a day. The country is located on the small Isthmus of Panama, separating the Pacific and Atlantic oceans, North and South America. It’s worth visiting these regions if you decide to organize a trip in the fly&drive style. To do this, just get to the capital of the country, Panama City, and then rent a car and go, for example, to the north of the country (the roads in the south are not in the best condition, and you can see more in the north). Those who want to combine a beach holiday with a trip to the rain forest, visit the Amazons, and see the famous Panama Canal and at the same time spend a minimum of time on various transfers. Europeans first reached the shores of Panama in 1501, when a few tribes of Cuno, Choco and Guayami Indians lived here. Afterwards, colonists and pirates began to move here, bringing blacks to work on plantations. In 1821 the country declared independence. For a long time, the country's economy remained backward, but recently, thanks in part to tourism, it has been developing at a fairly successful pace.

Attractions
Panama's most famous landmark is the Panama Canal. It was built at the beginning of the 20th century. Construction began by the French in 1879. However, due to the bankruptcy of the contractor company, the work was stopped. As a result, the canal was built in 1904-1914 by the US Army Corps of Engineers. Currently, the canal locks are called unique structures. Sometimes such huge ships pass here that the service personnel have to do literally jewelry work, since only a few centimeters remain between the ship’s boats and the walls of the airlock. The length of the canal is 80 kilometers. The San Blas Islands are the second attraction of Panama. They are located in the Caribbean and are famous for being home to the Amazons. The local Amazons of the Kuna Indian tribe are quite peaceful and you can visit them and see what modern matriarchy is like. For a long time, foreigners were prohibited from staying overnight on the San Blas Islands. However, now the rules have relaxed, and the first hotels have appeared here. In memory of visiting the archipelago, it is customary to buy red headscarves (this is what the local Amazons wear). The north-west of the country is covered with tropical forests, in which semi-wild Indian tribes still live, to which excursions are regularly carried out. Here, in the mountain region (the Cordillera reaches here), there are several national parks, including Volcan Baru with the Chiriqui volcano, which has fallen asleep for an indefinite period.
