This is the same tour as PC1-170 however you will travel in a restored executive rail car with booth seating on one side and rows of two seats with small tables on the other. Your car has a rest-room and shares a small open-air observation deck with the dome car described in PC1-170. The Executive Car does not have the glass dome viewing area. Travel the hemisphere's first transcontinental railroad, built in 1855, and see the Panama Canal in style aboard a deluxe 1938 vintage executive railway car.
Special Notes:
There are no preassigned seats. The train may operate one way or round trip depending upon prior train schedule. If one way, the return is by air-conditioned transportation on the new 4 lane highway. The drive back to the ship is approximately one hour and thirty minutes. Train may operate ONE way or Round trip, depending on prior train schedule.The Panama Canal Authority assigns specific time slots for the transit of a vessel through the locks. The ship will anchor in a designated area and will wait for instructions. Once clearance is transmitted to the ship, procedures begin to bring ship's tour passengers ashore. Therefore, tour departure times may vary and will be announced onboard. The return time of the ship to Colon or Cristobal may also be delayed due to transit through the locks. We recommend that you are prepared for any potential of delay in the ship's arrival to Colon or Cristobal and plan accordingly by bringing any needed medication or essential items on tour.
Depending on the voyage and itinerary guests will be dropped off in either Colon or Cristobal.Due to World Youth Day 2019 events, the tour will not include a stop at Fuerte Amador. The tour duration will be reduced to 4 ½ hours.
