After looking at many websites about Panama I still had too many unanswered questions. What to do next? Before the internet, I always used travel guides, so I ordered the Fodor guide and immediately felt that my questions were answered. There were several excellent suggestions that I've used. My family trip is this Christmas season, so I haven't fully used the Guide, but I plan to take parts with me.
