in Panama City
Where a colonial old town meets a modern glass skyline on the Pacific: the crossroads of the Americas with the world's most famous canal and Caribbean islands within reach.
Travel better in Panama City with the right person
Split costs
A solo traveller in Panama City spends about ~$40–120 USD a day. Accommodation, transport, guided tours and day trips all cost less split two ways.
Stay safer
A travel companion means someone knows your plans, can help navigate emergencies, and makes you less of a target in unfamiliar areas of Panama City.
Go deeper
The best experiences in Panama City (the off-menu restaurant, the dawn hike, the local's favourite spot) are found with a curious companion, not a guidebook.
Matched by style
Roammate filters by travel pace, budget range, and interests, so you connect with someone genuinely compatible, not just whoever's in the same hostel dorm.

Worth agreeing on before you meet
Respect Indigenous Culture
The Guna people of San Blas maintain autonomous governance and cultural traditions. Always ask permission before photographing Guna people or their homes. Respect their rules about island access and behaviour, as you are a guest in their territory.
Protect Marine Environments
San Blas and Panama's Pacific coast are ecologically sensitive. Do not take shells, coral, or starfish from beaches. Use reef-safe sunscreen when snorkelling. Pack out all rubbish, as many small islands have no waste management.
Full detail (itineraries, budgets, neighbourhoods and safety) is in the Panama City travel guide.
