- Getting Here
Most of our clients arrive via Tocumen Airport in Panama City. Upon arrival you will then need to obtain transportation to David City in Chiriqui, either by bus, rental car (most major rental car companies are available) or by plane. If you arrive in Panama City early enough it is possible to fly to David City the same day. A taxi from the airport to Panama City should cost $30 or less, for two people and luggage.
If you are unable to book a flight that allows you to make a same day connection with the local Flights to or from David, Panama or would prefer to spend a night or two visiting Panama City we recommend the following hotels for your stay.
If you need help with booking local flights to David, hotels, Panama City or canal tours we recommend you contact Luz, the owner of Starlite Travel.
