How to get here: we are in the middle of everything 2 blocks from the city's main road - Via España, just off Via Argentina in El Cangrejo (the main business district) behind the famous El Trapiche restaurant, so it shouldn't be a problem. Ring the bell of Anitas or the bell of the Spanish immersion school, spanishpanama.

The first time it's easiest to come by taxi ($1-$2 from most places)- tell the driver "Restaurante El Trapiche", then direct him 50yds down the side street
- From Albrook (the main bus terminal) and domestic air terminal- take a taxi the first time about $2.50

- From Tocumen International airport:
Option 1 - Pick up service - email us and we'll have someone pick you up, there maybe a charge.

Option 2 - taxi $20 or $15 (if you haggle)

Option 3 - bus then taxi about $2 - walk out of the airport veering right, after 200m you reach the intersection, cross the road and wait for a Panama City bus. It is better to take a bus that says "Corredor" as it is much faster (75 cents). After 25 minutes when you are downtown you will see shops and tall office buildings get off and take a taxi to the school for about $1.

Bus:
Many buses pass by Via España, but the first time it's worth the extra dollar taking the taxi, but if you are taking a local bus (25 cents) down Via España from the airport or Panama City's East side you will pass Excedra Books (the big English book store!) and should get off at Blockbuster video on your right side!


- Walking - From a bus or if you are coming from other nearby hotels, on Via España Walk around the right corner at Blockbuster and go up Via Argentina. In the next two blocks you will walk past another English bookstore, a Colombian food kiosk, the popular Panamanian restaurant (Del Prado), two internet cafes, a French restaurant, two coffee shop bakeries, a travel agency, the General Bank (ATM!), the old Gringo soldiers' favorite Costillitas Restaurant and then come to Trapiche's Restaurant (just before the Park!). (Isn't Via Argentina Great!) Now take a right at Trapiche's Restaurant and go 50m down half a block on ‘Calle G!’ You will see the spanish language school, Spanish Panama, which we also use as residence for their Spanish immersion students. Ring that bell or the bell beside it.
