Your adventure begins at the main entrance of Panama City's famous Seafood Market, one of the few markets in Central America where visitors can discover an incredible variety of seafood from both the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans under the same roof. As we step inside, you'll experience the vibrant atmosphere of a working local market, learn about Panama's unique geographic position, and explore the rich marine diversity that has shaped the country's culinary traditions for generations.

Your first tasting at San Felipe Neri Market features Panama's world-famous Geisha coffee, widely regarded as one of the most exclusive and sought-after coffees on the planet. Grown in the highlands of western Panama and celebrated at international coffee auctions, Geisha has captivated coffee enthusiasts worldwide with its remarkably complex flavor profile, delicate floral aromas, and tea-like characteristics. During this stop, you'll have the opportunity to sample this legendary coffee while learning how a little-known variety grown in Panama became one of the most prized coffees in the global specialty coffee industry. Even guests who don't usually drink coffee are often surprised by its smooth, aromatic, and distinctive taste.

San Felipe Neri Market is where Panama's culinary culture comes to life. During the visit, we'll sample 5 to 6 freshly prepared tropical fruit juices, including Panama's famous sweet pineapple and other seasonal flavors. We'll also taste the legendary tree tomato juice from Refresquería Inés, a local favorite found only within the market. Guests will have the opportunity to try a selection of artisanal hot sauces, seasonal fruits, traditional Panamanian sweets, and enjoy a fonda-style lunch featuring authentic home-cooked dishes loved by locals. More than a food stop, this market offers a unique glimpse into Panama's everyday culture, flavors, and traditions.
