For Brazilians, entry is simplified. You will need your original passport and the International Certificate of Vaccination against Yellow Fever (ANVISA card). Unlike Brazil, where the currency is the Real, Panama uses the Balboa, which has a fixed value of 1:1 with the US Dollar. In practice, you will use Dollar bills for everything. It is recommended to take cash dollars, as Balboa coins circulate only locally. Don't forget to have proof of accommodation and sufficient funds for the stay, which may be requested at immigration.

Panama City has intense traffic, similar to that of São Paulo. The metro is an excellent alternative to escape congestion, connecting strategic points. For longer or nighttime journeys, use ride-sharing apps, which are safe and economical. If you decide to rent a car, know that the main highways are excellent, but the behavior of local drivers can be aggressive. A 'don't be a tourist' tip: use the 'Metrobus' bus system for an authentic local experience, but avoid the old 'Diablos Rojos' for greater safety and comfort.

Panamanian gastronomy shares the base of rice and beans with Brazilian food, but with Caribbean seasonings. Try the 'Sancocho', an invigorating chicken soup, and fresh ceviche at the Seafood Market. Panamanian coffee, especially the Geisha variety, is considered one of the best (and most expensive) in the world. For a local experience, visit the 'fondas', small family restaurants with homemade food at low prices. The TICKETS.COM.BR tip for incredible photos and good food is Casco Viejo at sunset, where rooftops offer unbeatable views of the modern skyline.

The Panamanian people are hospitable and accustomed to foreigners due to the Canal. Spanish is the official language, but English is widely spoken in the tourism sector. Unlike some regions of Brazil, punctuality is valued in formal commitments. When shopping, malls like Albrook Mall require comfortable shoes as they are gigantic. To explore like a local, visit the Amador Causeway on the weekend to see Panamanian families riding bikes and enjoying the sea breeze. It is the perfect place to feel the real energy of the city outside the financial centers.
