Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Gatun?
The best time to visit Gatun, Colón, Panama, is during the dry season, which typically runs from mid-December to mid-April.

During these months, you'll experience less rainfall and lower humidity, making it much more pleasant for exploring the Panama Canal, the Gatun Locks, and the surrounding natural areas. The weather is generally sunny with comfortable temperatures, ideal for outdoor activities like wildlife spotting or boat tours on Gatun Lake.

For travellers interested in wildlife, particularly birdwatching, the dry season is excellent as animals are often more active and visible near water sources. It's also a popular time for fishing enthusiasts due to calmer waters on Gatun Lake.
Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline − this is often within 24 to 48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our 'Fully refundable property' filter during your search to find the right Gatun hotel for you.
