From the comfort of the luxurious Scenic Eclipse, get an up-close, first-hand experience of sailing through the Panama Canal. The French started construction in 1880 but the project was abandoned and taken over by the United States in 1904 before finally opening a decade later. Now managed by a Panamanian government authority, the canal links the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean using three levels of locks to raise ships to Lake Gatun, in order to avoid the long and treacherous journey rounding Cape Horn. A transit of this engineering marvel is sure to be a memorable experience for all guests.
