Join me in Panama! This Special Edition BEIP REUNION TOUR reunites former BEIP Tour Group Members, celebrates 3rd Anniversary of BEIP Cultural Relocation Tours AND celebrates the 60th Birthday of Founder/CEO, Charlotte Van Horn. This is NOT a BEIP RELOCATION TOUR
If you have been on our Black Expats in Panama Cultural Relocation Tour, we invite you to join us once again for our special Black Expats in Panama Alumni Reunion Tour and Three Year Anniversary Celebration. Invite your friends and family to see Panama as well! All are welcome! It will be 6 days of celebration, information, culture, music, fun, wonderful people, great food and more. It will be cool to reconnect with your BEIP Tour Family and see Panama in a way you did not experience it on the BEIP Relocation Tour. In addition to all this goodness, I will be CELEBRATING MY 6OTH BIRTHDAY! It will be like a BIG Family Reunion and you KNOW how WE do it! It is going to be an unforgettable time with lots of surprises, special moments and memories.
In addition to celebrating, reconnecting and meeting new people, upon request, we will also provide updates, guidance and information about relocating and/or investing in this magical place many of us now call “home.” We are our ancestors' wildest dreams!
I will see you in Panama!
DAY 1: WELCOME TO PANAMÁ (Dinner Included)
RECOMMENDED ARRIVAL TIME MID DAY
Welcome to Panama. Upon arrival (Tocumen Airport (PTY)), meet your driver outside and then head over to the Sortis Hotel for check in and some time to relax. The Sortis is located in central Panama City, and features an outdoor pool, a casino, a spa, a fitness center, restaurant and city views.
We keep this afternoon open for you in case you want to schedule a tour or activity. Our welcome dinner will be at the hotel at 7:00 pm. Afterwards, enjoy one of the many bars at the hotel, the casino, or rooftops in the area as the night is yours to enjoy.
DAY 2: CULTURAL CARIBBEAN DAY (Breakfast & Lunch Included)
Today we push off after breakfast and head north to Colon. During the ride, you will learn about history and current events taking place in Colon. Take in the rich Afro Panamanian colors and vibes of Portobelo as we submerge ourselves in the Congo culture with great food and dancing.
We will pass through the City of Colon (and stop for a photo at the Colon Sign) on our way to Portobelo where we will see the Black Jesus and local culture. For lunch we will enjoy a Caribbean style feast. We will take a 20 minute ride via water taxi to Isla Mamey, a small Caribbean Island with clear waters and a sandy beach. We spend the balance of the afternoon enjoying fresh coconuts, soaking up the sun, enjoying great music and the peace that greets us from the moment we arrive at this Island. Just when you think the day could not get any better, we let you experience the “Tunnel of Love” and the Natural Pool on our way back to the mainland. We head back to the City accompanied by the amazing “DJ Savannah” who will have us singing along and taking a stroll down memory lane all the way back to the City.
DAY 3: WESTIN ALL INCLUSIVE (Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner Included)
Sleep in (a little), grab some breakfast and then we transition to the beautiful Westin Playa Bonita All Inclusive Resort. You will spend the next few days relaxing, eating delicious food, drinking quality beverages, laughing, dancing and coming together as a group. Enjoy the golden sands of Playa Bonita Beach and the many resort amenities,including three infinity-edge pools, six restaurants and Sensory Spa, 24-hour room service
DAY 4: DAY OF LEISURE & TOURS (Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner Included)
Enjoy a free day at the resort to continue chatting it up with friends and playing games by the poolside with the ocean waves calmly crashing in the background. If you want more adventure choose from one of our amazing cultural or adventure tours. Relocation services, tours and information are also available.
DAY 5: SUNSET JAZZ CRUISE (Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner Included)
Enjoy a leisurely morning at the resort. If you are feeling the vibe of this place and want to consider calling Panama a second home, or if you see the growth potential for the market, ask us about a Real Estate Tour of the Residential Tower Casa Bonita located within the Westin Property Grounds. In the afternoon we will head over to the Amador Causeway where we enjoy a Sunset Cruise with live music and light hor devours. Then it is back to the resort for the final WHITE (with pops of red) DINNER PARTY.
DAY 6: FREE TIME & DEPARTURE
Enjoy your last breakfast with new and old friends and spend your morning lounging by the pool or plan your final excursion before departing to the airport. Safe travels . . . you next time.
