We've been to a lot of Central American countries, but Panama might have surprised us the most. In this episode, we break down our three weeks exploring everything from Boquete's coffee farms to Panama City's impressive skyline. We talk about why most overlanders rush through this country (and why they shouldn't), the uncomfortable social dynamics we witnessed, and how Panama compares to Costa Rica. Plus, we share the story of accidentally walking into the Panamanian president's house and why Chris thinks the food here is ten times better than anywhere else in Central America.📬 Join Our Email Listchrisandsara.kit.com/chrisandsara🎙 Listen to the ShowApple Podcasts: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/what-no-one-tells-you-with-chris-and-sara/id1687901628Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/5SXZlPawefVBTUyiarRbH4YouTube: youtube.com/@WhatNoOneTellsYouPodcast🌍 Follow Us for MoreInstagram: instagram.com/chrisandsara_Threads: threads.net/@chrisandsara_Website: chrisandsara.com🚀 Want to Work With Us?chrisandsara.com/work-with-us⚡ Gear We Use for the PodcastMicrophones: bhpho.to/3YkwGr7Camera Setup: bhpho.to/3SwWvlBEditing Software: riverside.fm/?via=be2d1f🧰 Free Creator Toolkitchrisandsara.kit.com/3405c56aaa

We’ve crossed a lot of borders on the Pan-American Highway, but this one will stick with us for a while.In this episode, we share the full behind-the-scenes story of our most stressful travel day yet: crossing from El Salvador through Honduras into Nicaragua. From getting scammed at the border and nearly being separated from Kramer to hiding knives in the sink and mailing our drone across international lines, this one had everything. We also discuss what surprised us most about each country, what we’d do differently, and why border crossings are a real part of overland travel that no one prepares you for.

We crossed into El Salvador with zero expectations and ended up completely surprised by what we found.In this episode, we talk about why this small country left such a big impression on us. From the easiest border crossing we’ve had so far to the unexpected calm of the roads, El Salvador challenged every stereotype we’d heard. We share what it’s really like to travel here in 2025, including how safe it felt, what towns along the Ruta de Las Flores are worth visiting, and the one experience that had us questioning all our life choices (spoiler: it involves hot springs and a strong sulfur smell).If you’ve ever wondered what El Salvador is actually like for travelers, this one’s for you.📬 Join Our Email Listchrisandsara.kit.com/chrisandsara🎙 Listen to the ShowApple Podcasts: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/what-no-one-tells-you-with-chris-and-sara/id1687901628Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/5SXZlPawefVBTUyiarRbH4YouTube: youtube.com/@WhatNoOneTellsYouPodcast🌍 Follow Us for MoreInstagram: instagram.com/chrisandsara_Threads: threads.net/@chrisandsara_Website: chrisandsara.com🚀 Want to Work With Us?chrisandsara.com/work-with-us⚡ Gear We Use for the Podcast🎙 Microphones: bhpho.to/3YkwGr7📹 Camera Setup: bhpho.to/3SwWvlB💻 Editing Software: riverside.fm/?via=be2d1f🧰 Free Creator Toolkitchrisandsara.kit.com/3405c56aaa
