Olympus Tours Heads to Panama!

By Susie Reese

I’ve only been traveling internationally for five years, but on my first trip to Mexico, which doubled as my first single journey, my mom was worried. I was headed to a safe destination—the always fashionable Los Cabos—but Mom, being a mom, asked a zillion questions.

“How will you get to your hotel? Who will be driving you? What do you mean, ‘you’re not taking a resort transfer’?”

And I answered my mom in one sentence. “I’ll be traveling with Olympus Tours.”

Panama Olympus Tours

Olympus Tours – “The Hospitality People of Mexico and the Dominican Republic” and now Panama!

Olympus Tours always greets guests with their signature orange polo shirts. Their comfortable vehicles never make more than three stops on the way to the resort, and a traveler never waits at the airport more than 20 minutes before departing.

Olympus Tours Panama

Friendly, reliable service – just what you need in a foreign destination.

I explained to Mom that my colleagues had traveled to Mexico numerous times—from Cancun to Mexico City to Puerto Vallarta—all with Olympus Tours, and I would be safe.

Just this past month, I traveled down to the Dominican Republic, and the first words out of my mom’s mouth were, “Who’s taking you to the resort? What company are you using for sightseeing? Olympus Tours?”

Of course! After all, Flight Centre (parent company of GOGO Vacations) awarded Olympus Tours with the title of “Best International Ground Operator” for the fourth consecutive year based on their performance and customer satisfaction, and “The Hospitality People of Mexico and the Dominican Republic” are always seeking the best experiences for their clients. So this year, GOGO Vacations and Olympus Tours are venturing into a new destination: Panama!
