NCL Gem - 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise - Day 6 Update - Panama Canal Excursion Day

We went on the NCL Gem's 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise. On day 6, we got to transit the Panama Canal, both on the NCL Gem through the Gatun Locks to Gutan Lake, and a ferry boat excursion through the Pedro Miguel and Miraflores locks to the Pacific near Panama City, Panama. All of this took place on Day 6 of our Panama Canal Cruise. This was our third port-of-call, in Panama and the Panama Canal. The entire cruise includes 4 total at-sea days and 6 port of call days including Georgetown, Grand Cayman, Cartagena, Columbia, the Panama Canal and Colon, Port of Gamboa, and Port of Balboa, Panama, Puerto Limon, Costa Rica, Harvest Caye, Belize, and Cozumel, Mexico. If you want to take a cruise, we highly recommend the NCL Gem and the 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise itinerary. Even at 11 days, we never got bored once, which was our fear. Don't fear it, book it, and enjoy the cruise of a lifetime!! 00:00 Introduction 00:20 Getting on the Bow Early 01:53 Tip #1: Stand on the Aft Side of the Bow 02:21 Coffee and Danishes on the Bow 04:35 Entering the Gatun Locks 05:42 Panama Canal Mules 06:43 Gatun Gate Opening 07:56 Entering Gatun Lake 09:15 Tip #2: Grab-and-Go 11:22 Bus Ride to the Ferry 13:07 Boarding the Ferry in Gamboa 15:50 Crossed the Continental Divide 17:02 Pedro Miguel Locks 22:25 Miraflores Locks 23:35 Tip #2: Repeat!! 25:29 Huge Container Port 29:36 Pacific Ocean Waters 30:03 Panama City Skyline 31:03 Offloading at Port of Balboa 31:34 Bus Trip to Colon to meet the NCL Gem 35:35 Tip #3: Booking Long Excursions Through the Ship 39:54 Recap/On-deck Tomorrow NCL Gem 11-day Panama Canal Cruise: https://youtu.be/iPyjFSIR1PM NCL Gem's Garden Cafe Buffet: https://youtu.be/UOYmNp2Z9wU NCL Gem's Awesome GLOW Party: https://youtu.be/I5TDGoxyM-A NCL Gem: Inside Cabin Cruise Ship Room Layout: https://youtu.be/Hchr546fvAQ Cruise Room Organization: Accessories You Got To Have: https://youtu.be/-IJWYBofnsI NCL Gem 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise - Day 1 Update - Travel and Embarkation: https://youtu.be/ExThQP0d0p0 NCL Gem 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise - Day 2 Update - At-Sea Day: https://youtu.be/y9gwREFhMMA NCL Gem 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise - Day 3 Update - Grand Cayman Island Excursion: https://youtu.be/kHt78OafozU NCL Gem 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise - Day 4 Update - At Sea Day: https://youtu.be/9wkIivV0blk NCL Gem 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise - Day 5 Update - Cartagena, Columbia Excursion Day: https://youtu.be/Sqe6ZVCTzaE The Picasso of Cartagena: https://youtu.be/e7lTs23wisw NCL Gem 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise - Day 6 Update - Panama Canal: https://youtu.be/Bsb7hmU5dr0 NCL Gem 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise - Day 7 Update - Puerto Limon, Costa Rica Excursion Day: https://youtu.be/qCXaXX9oOoo NCL Gem 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise - Day 8 Update - At-Sea Day: https://youtu.be/CBD0KnIRoFc NCL Gem 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise - Day 9 Update - Harvest Caye, Belize: https://youtu.be/Ky_nxST2d9Q NCL Gem 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise - Day 10 Update - Cozumel, Mexico: https://youtu.be/yMcnrBGS1mE NCL Gem 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise - Day 11 Update - At-Sea Day: https://youtu.be/V21AewF8Vjs #ncl #panamacanal #panama #cruise #norwegiancruises #travel #travelvlog #cruising #cruiseship ************** As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.
