Our role is to help you navigate that system with clarity, ensuring every aspect of your trip is thoughtfully coordinated from the very beginning.
No two travelers are the same, which is why no two itineraries should be either. We design and coordinate personalized kosher travel experiences for individuals, families, and groups visiting Panama. Combining local expertise, community connections, and careful planning, we help align accommodations, kosher dining, transportation, and experiences into one seamless journey.
Every itinerary is different. We create customized pricing based on your travel plans, accommodations, and experiences.
A first conversation to understand your plans, answer your questions, and guide you with insider knowledge on how to approach your trip.
Based on your consultation, we create a fully tailored itinerary aligned with your priorities, travel style, and how you want the experience to come together — with everything structured from the start.
We handle the details that make the biggest difference. Kosher dining is coordinated in advance, from selecting the right restaurants to aligning reservations with your daily plans, so everything flows naturally. Up to 5 reservations.
Synagogue access is arranged ahead of time, including introductions, approvals, and timing, so you arrive with everything already in place.
We guide you on where to stay based on location, proximity to the Jewish community, and how your trip is structured — and coordinate hotel options accordingly. From selecting the right property to securing preferred rates and handling reservations, everything is aligned from the start.
Beyond logistics, we open the door to the community through curated experiences, from challah bakes to meaningful connections with local organizations. Explore Jewish life in Panama while enjoying guided tours of the Canal, city, rainforest, and beaches.
For those traveling during Shabbat or chagim, we coordinate every element — from meals and catering to appropriate spaces, walking routes, synagogue access, and transportation — so the experience feels fully aligned.
For a more seamless experience, we offer a dedicated 24/7 concierge — handling details in real time, from last-minute reservations to private drivers, childcare, or unexpected changes. Everything is taken care of discreetly and efficiently, as it comes up.

Panama Travel Co. was founded in 2019 by brothers Victor and Joey Zebede, with a clear focus: to make kosher travel in Panama more structured, accessible, and easy to navigate.
Born and raised in Panama, with three generations of family rooted in the local community, they bring a deep understanding of how the destination actually works — both within the Jewish community and beyond. After studying at Yeshiva University, what began as helping friends from the U.S. navigate Panama during school breaks quickly turned into something more. Early on, they were personally guiding tours, learning in real time, and building the foundation of what would become Panama Travel Co.
Through experience and many lessons along the way, today, Panama Travel Co. combines that local knowledge with a structured, detail-oriented approach — allowing travelers and groups to experience Panama in a way that feels organized, connected, and easy from start to finish.
Born and raised in Panama, our team combines local knowledge, community connections, and firsthand experience to help you travel with confidence.
