The crew that makes sure you never party alone.
The Panama Barcrawl is a team of 10 hosts guiding travelers through Casco Viejo's best bars and clubs, Wednesday to Saturday, every week. Every night runs on hip-hop, dancehall and Afrobeats, expert hosting and a planned route through the old town. Behind it all is Beyoa, S.A., a proudly Panamanian-owned company with one philosophy: the venues are fire, but the people are the real vibe.

Our story
- 2017The first crawl. Two Belgian entrepreneurs who fell in love with Casco Viejo's nightlife start The Panama Barcrawl.
- 2021A Panamanian owner. After the pandemic sends the founders home, Panamanian entrepreneur Ciro Jaén takes over in December with a simple idea: travelers shouldn't have to guess where to go, who to trust or whether they'll fit in.
- TodayPanama City's go-to hosted night out. Ciro and a team of 10 hosts run The OG Crawl four nights a week and plan private crawls for groups.
- 2026A second city. The same energy comes to Colombia with The Medellín Barcrawl.

What makes the night different
Hosted, not guided
Our hosts run the night: introductions, the route, the timing and every door. You just show up.
Built for the culture
The OG Crawl was built with Black travelers in mind, around Afrobeats, hip-hop and dancehall, and welcomes respectful guests from around the world.
Nobody parties alone
Most guests arrive solo or as a couple. By the second stop, the group is a crew.
Come as strangers. Leave as a crew.
Wednesday to Saturday, 8:00 PM, Casco Viejo. We handle the night. You just show up.
