Meet Panama Joe.

Panama Joe was born in Panama and grew up in Boston. He also lived in Milan, Italy. His life has always involved different cultures, countries, people, hospitality, and relationships.

Before formally creating Panama Joe Travel, Joe spent years involved in the nightlife, hospitality, and promotion scene in South Florida. He previously lived in Miami and later moved to Fort Lauderdale.

He and his longtime friend Scott — friends for almost twenty years — became involved in the Fort Lauderdale nightlife scene and helped build what Joe describes as one of the hottest nightlife scenes in Fort Lauderdale at the time.

That experience taught Joe how to bring people together, create memorable experiences, build relationships, understand hospitality, connect people with the right places, take care of people, and build trusted networks.

Eventually, Joe realized that he could use those same skills to help people travel. Panama has always been especially important to him because he was born there and has family there — including a brother in Panama who can help travelers get around and experience the country.

After helping seven groups travel to Panama, Joe realized that what he had been doing casually could become something bigger. That business became Panama Joe Travel.

You shouldn't have to know everyone in the world to have an incredible trip. You just need to know Joe.
