Roads north of Panama city are brilliant. Roads to the south are atrocious, and worsen as you approach [[Yavisa]]. Hitch-hiking is called ''viajar a lift'', you can say you are ''buscando un lift hacia...'' (''looking for a lift towards...'').
:''In Panama is easy to ride, mostly all the pickup cars will just stop. And if you get sick of waiting for a ride all the buses will be slowing down near the place you try to hitchhike and invite you in, for a cheaper price.''-[[User:Ajeremias|Ajeremias]] :''I had the same experience as Chael777: guy at the border (route 36 in Bocas del Toro) also refused to let anybody in without a plane ticket. Like Chael777, I was able to forge one on the computer in the internet cafe. Hitchhiking in Panama takes an hour on average, but for longer rides it's usually still faster than buses, which drive slower and stop more frequently.'' -[[User:Dr.Keith|Keith]] :''Entring the country i was forced to show a ticket back to my own country, and a paper proving 500$ in my account. As the road system is very simple, with the PanAmericana crossing the country, and some secondery roads crossing verticaly, most the traffic will go same rout, however while waiting in those highways seem long going out of cities, getting towards them from smaller routs is almost too easy.''-[[User:Aqua|Aqua]] == Cities ==* [[Panama City]]* [[David (Panama)|David]]* [[Colon (Panama)|Colon]] == Nomadwiki & Trashwiki == {{nomadwiki}} [[Category:Central America]][[Category:Panama| ]] [[es:Panamá]]
