The best of
the Panama Canal
It’s one of man’s greatest engineering marvels — the mighty Panama Canal. Completed in 1914, the
Canal cuts through 51 miles of Central American jungle, including the sheer granite of the Continental
Divide. And one of the best ways to see it is on a voyage with Princess .
®
Choose your own way to visit this modern wonder — a 14- to 18-day voyage featuring our signature
2-day Canal Experience, which includes a full transit plus a full day call at Fuerte Amador, Panama, on
the Pacific side. Or a 14-day voyage with a full transit of the Canal and calls to Cabo San Lucas and
Nicaragua. Our convenient 10-day sailings roundtrip from Ft. Lauderdale are also available, with a partial
Canal transit to Gatun Lake.
