TRANSPORTATION
Uber is available in Panama
It can be hard to get a driver from Gamboa. Expect to tip well when driving to Gamboa as drivers might be disappointed by how far they have to drive.
There is a public transit METROBUS (search route C790) that runs between Gamboa and the Albrook bus station. In addition, STRI offers a shuttle between the STRI Dock - Gamboa - Tupper on weekdays. More info about the Metrobus and STRI shuttle here.
You can also find more detailed guides to general public transit in English and in Spanish.
FOOD + SUPPLIES
The Gamboa store and associated restaurant have substantially improved service compared to previous options, and generally remain open until ~8:00.
They will also exchange gas tanks.
