"We are arriving into PAC at 8:15AM and leaving from PTY at 3PM. Would the driver be able to pick us up from PAC and drop us off at PTY?"
Response from organiser:
Yes, we pick up anywhere in the city and drop off to Tocumen, normally it is pty to Pty. It is much better from us from Albrook.
"Going back to my initial question, as I would like to explore how to book, specific to our needs, "We arrive at 2:30pm on October 4th; will this be enough time for the tour?" We will be staying overnight and flying the next morning. I was also told there is a restaurant with a view of the canal that we could do dinner of. How do we get in touch to speak with the tour operator directly?"
Response from organiser:
Greetings from Panama! The center closes at 6pm and the travel time is 40 minutes so you will have one hour to visit Miraflores lock center. The excursion is 3 hours door to door. It will all depend on your departure time. We will bring you back at 6pm.
