I would say Haunted Symphony, it is the longest and pretty simple.

Haunted symphony has the best xp but you might die more often if the team is not good.

xp is important but getting cash along the way (and pink/components) is also very important. So I would say a combo strongman/den/boggy is prob best. you get the xp but you also get the bosses. Ands if you are more lucky than I am, you will drop the pinks and components along the way!
Haunted Symph is very long, the mini doesn't drop often, and Panto prob has the worst drop rate of all the bosses (I may be wrong but the price of helms would seem to prove me right)

I've gotten about 7-8 drops from panty man since I've started farming him, but the drops were mostly crafting materials and maybe three pinks (good ones too).

Symphony is the best for exp runs but as aperfecte said, you need a good team with you to keep things flowing. Gold comes easy in NH since all the trash items liquidate for around 200 gold, so after about an hour of farming I can make about 20k of gold just from trash items. Pinks are a different story.

I would offer this comment on xp grinding to 61. I have taken my three main toons to 61 (bird, bear, mage) and I agree that the first level with Panto offers the greatest xp just by the shear number of mobs. However, it is also one of the more difficult boards because of its length and the fact the zombie/skeletons can Gravestone any time you get caught in a group. In fact, I found this one of the more difficult boards to run in PUGs because of the team work required to effectively move fast. A good bear, two mages and two birds are perfect, especially if there are people using elixers.

However, I also found that the second level with the Strongman offered similar xp with a decent group and the time saving factored in because it is shorter. Additionally, it offers three mini-bosses for a total of 4 chances for crafting material drops. Those drops are far more common than glyphs and can add up to significant money when selling them. Also, PUGs on this level were easier to manage because one elixered toon can manhandle most of the mob groups. My typical farming group all ended up prefering to run this board for xp grinding as we all took multiple toons to 61. The glyph drops from this board also still have very high value, unlike the ones from Lion's Den which also is short and offers two mini-bosses and two bosses at the end.

When we would get bored of one level, we would run 2-4 using the portals for quick game transitions. The xp was still decent, especially if you just don't rush 4 and take time to eliminate a good number of mobs on the way to the mini-boss and the Snake Charmer.

So while I agree Panto is a good xp board, I think that other options can be very attractive, given the number of potential drops available and the fact that you won't always be with a skilled group.

Good luck with the grind!

I agree. I have a tendancy to run map 2 X 5-10 and then portal to den and sometimes a run through boggy for a change. I think this is the best option. I do pant every once in while but party has to be really good. I agree also on the best party breakdown for pant: 1 bear (good one), 2 birds and 2 mages.
