Boqute Blues and Jazz Festival

This was the 9th year for the Boquete Blues and Jazz Festival. Every year it is better and better. The parties last for several days before and after the Festival. This year, the kick off was a jam session on Super Bowl Sunday with Andy Egert from Switzerland. His music is like Eric Clapton and Stevie Ray Vaughn rolled in to one.

We had a mardi gras style parade in Boquete.

Free Concert in Central Park

The actual Festival is in an ampitheater in Valle Escondido but the artists play at various venues around town for several days before, during and after the festival. The artists are all very accessible and love to hang out with everyone.

See some of the vidoes from the 2015 Blues and Jazz Festival.

This was at the Panamonte Garden Party. The Panamonte Hotel has been in Boquete for 100 years.

There was a music art show at the library

This was a jam session at Baru restaurant

Another Jam Session

One of my favorites was Lil’Ed Williams. This video is not from the festival but it shows what a great artist he is

We’re lucky in Boquete… live music is a weekly event at multiple locations.

The February tour group will get to enjoy Andy Egert. He is in Bocas del Toro now but will be back in Boquete to do a private show for the February tour group on Tuesday evening.

Even More Enlightening!

Thank you again for providing the Panama Relocation Tours. This was my second time through and found it even more enlightening than the first time. Your emphasis on introducing the group to ex-pats throughout the tour has been a very valuable part of both tours. Because of this, I feel that I now have friends and contacts in every part of the country.

I think that everyone appreciated the fact that the tour was well planned out and arrival and departure times were always met and destinations were pertinent and interesting. Everything went off without a hitch.

The big bonus on my first tour was the 2 or 3 days that Richard Dietrich was with us. His knowledge of Panama and his willingness to share that knowledge was priceless. Equally as large a bonus on this tour was the incorporation of Nathan and Linda into your crew. Nathan’s knowledge of Latin America and his willingness to share that knowledge was worth the price of admission. Linda’s long time residence in Latin America and her extensive knowledge was a big asset. In addition, Linda made the tour “just plain fun” with her witty personality and easy going management style. It just wouldn’t have been the same without her. Oh, and the daily Spanish lessons taught by Linda and Nathan were greatly appreciated.

I plan to come down again in June or July and will probably see you then.

It Felt Like Leaving Summer Camp

I just wanted to say how much we enjoyed the tour, Linda and Nathan were great, as well as all of our tour compadres. It’s certainly a crap shoot signing up to travel an entire country with a group of strangers, but I have to say there was not a single person on our tour that I would not invite to my home for dinner! We had a great time and it felt like leaving summer camp as a kid when it was over. I look forward to keeping in touch and meeting others in this group and sharing information. This group will only be as good as we make it!

Take Care,

THANK YOU very much for a great Panama Relocation Tour this past August, 2013.

It was so nice and convenient to tour with you as you had every detail pre-arranged to make the tour effortless and stress free for us. The restaurants, hotels, transportation, and a plethora of information was so helpful and wonderful ! Your pre-tour briefing with the attorney along with a packet of useful information and talking with expats during the tour was beyond helpful. We did not feel pressured to buy or rent any properties- you just let us see many different options for housing in Panama including gated communities, beautiful and modern apartments, private homes and condos and also opening your own private home to us for a first-hand look at real Panama living.

The driver was great and we enjoyed practicing and learning Spanish with him.

You more than delivered what you promised in your web information about touring Panama when we were looking for information for living in Panama.

Your candid, realistic and helpful information about everything Panama was so refreshing to know that the information was truthful and honest.

I would recommend this tour for anyone considering living and/or doing business in Panama.

The value was more than worth the money spent for this tour and every time we had any questions before, during, or after the tour you were prompt in answering those questions.

Sincerely,

Dr. R. and C. Jacobs

This Was My 2nd Panama Relocation Tour

I thought the tour was great! This was my 2nd Panama Relocation Tour. Saw some new places. It was very informative. There is no way I could have learned so much about living and relocating to Panama if I had tried to do this on my own.

Sue Dloughy, Florida

We can’t say enough wonderful things about the Panama Relocation Tour! You’ll visit places all over the country, and have an opportunity to see what it would be like to live there.

As you travel in a comfortable motor coach, you’ll hear Jackie talk about all things expat Panama. She’s made the move, and she tells you what you need to know to make the move yourself.

Maybe you’ll decide Panama isn’t for you. Or, like us, you’ll see that Panama is even more wonderful than you imagined! Either way, the Panama Relocation Tour is your very best option to help make your decision. Everything is paid for. You have no decisions to make. You just sit back, enjoy yourself, and learn.

Jackie says she gives you a first lick of the ice cream cone. You have to eat the rest of it on your own. Crunch!

ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS TOUR

Absolutely fabulous tour showing us where to go back to and where not to go back to. Great fun too! Wonderful advice on EVERYTHING from renting/buying, visa options, legal, police situations, weather, etc etc. Thank you so much!

WELL ORGANIZED AND CUSTOM ORIENTED

Great overview of the many beautiful locations in which to relocate. Well organized and custom oriented. Thanks for your conscientious efforts to present the many options available in a compressed amount of time. Friendly staff (drivers) and leaders especially. Very helpful in consolidating our plans.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS TOUR

Highly recommend this tour. We took the 6 day tour which was long enough to get a good overall view of most of the places that expats would consider living from Panama City to the beach communities of Coronado, Pedasi on the Azuero Peninsula, Las Lajas near David, and the mountain communities of El Valle, and Boquete.

Thoroughly enjoyed the stress free tour and the chance to meet and and interact the other couples on the tour also in the same situation that we are in while leaving all the planning details up to Jackie, her daughter Melissa, and her keeper boyfriend Nathan. Also enjoyed meeting other ex-pats including Jackie’s husband and neighbor.

Other highlights include spending the afternoon at Richard Detrich’s home (author of the must read book, Escape to Paradise, Living and Retiring in Panama) and meeting with Bob Adams from www.retirementwave.com. Look forward to the new forum on your website that will allow us to keep up with our new friends from the tour and follow their progress as they wrap things up at home and retire to Panama.

WOW!!!! THAT WAS A REAL FAIRYTALE ADVENTURE

WOW!!! That was a real Fairytale adventure that ended too soon. I feel very fortunate to have been a part of it and can’t wait to get back there. Opportunities abound and that country’s future in on the right track. I hope everyone returned safely and keeps in touch to encourage each other to keep up the momentum for the big move south.

To Your Increased Wealth,

This Tour is for YOU!

For all you folks out there looking for a really great place to retire, you need to look real hard at Panama. And the way to do that is to take Jackie’s overview tour and check out some really good retirement areas. If you are like many, you will be very tired of the hassles of living in big cities, like Panama City, and want to check out some quieter surroundings like the beach or the mountains, then this tour is for you.

Jackie has conducted this tour for small groups for MANY years and has located a most outstanding Panamanian guide who is exceedingly well informed about all things Panama and he drives the group to selected locations with very different geographies.

Now this is not a house buying tour where real estate agents try to sell you their houses, but an opportunity to see a whole lot of Panama and decide if Panama is the right destination for you

INFORMATIVE AND ENJOYABLE – ENJOYED EVERY MINUTE OF IT

Thanks so much for organizing and making our trip to the beautiful country of Panama so informative and enjoyable. Norma and I enjoyed every minute of it! Your scheduling maximized our experiencing the country, Ex-pats, natives, dining, fellowship with other attendees, Richard Detrich, you and Doug. You showed us such a variety of areas, activities and real estate. The accommodations and restaurants were excellent. Your schedule allowed for adequate rest and recuperation but not one minute for boredom!

We were very favorably impressed with the country’s courtesy, security (our passports were checked frequently by courteous police, hotel clerks,etc) Unemployment Rate (4%), welfare “0? (it is handled on a local basis like we used to have), flat tax rate (17%, includes their social security!), availability of reasonable cost medical insurance (30 days free for visitors.) Their 11% annual growth in GNP,

We discussed that Panama was not the Garden of Eden but it must be in the same neighborhood! We would eagerly recommend the trip to anyone.

Thanks Again,

THE INFORMATION WAS VERY COMPLETE

Helen and I would like to thank you for the magnificent tour last week. We stayed a few days after and looked at a few more sites in Panama. Originally we thought the tour was to include only Boquete, so we had planned to visit a few areas close by. But you included all the sites we had planned to visit. The information was very complete and gave us all we could ask for as an initial screening visit.

The tour was perfectly designed and executed for someone considering Panama as a new place to live. The various micro-climates, the cost of living and housing, the ease of travel and day-to-day living, and other trade-offs could not have been covered better. We found the contact with the expats who are presently living in the area to be invaluable, providing the insight of people who are already living
in Panama for several years.

Your personalized involvement and attention to detail were greatly appreciated. You answered some of our personal questions in ways I cannot imagine anyone else being capable of. You were truly a great host and we will be forever grateful.

Hope to see you soon in Panama.

THANK YOU FOR A FANTASTIC TOUR

Sovereign Lady, Thank you for a fantastic tour. We learned so much that will assist us in deciding when to rent a furnished house there in or near Boquete.

Yes, the tour ranks as one of our top two tours we have taken. we really appreciate everything about it and are telling all of our friends and relatives about it. Everyone up here should take that tour ASAP. Hopefully the International airport in David will be open for us CA visitors soon.

Dean and Helen

P.S. We are sold on Boquete. Hopefully see you and Doug soon.

IT WAS SO GREAT TO HAVE SOMEONE PICK US UP AT THE AIRPORT

We have taken Jackie’s tour and it was awesome! Our travel schedule landed us in Panama late in the evening and is was so GREAT to have someone pick us up at the airport after 12 hours of traveling and going through the hassles of two airport security check points, etc.

It was wonderful to be directed by Sovereign Lady as to where to purchase a Panama phone and know that if you got lost you had a way to connect with Sovereign lady or the van driver, Briant. It was comforting to know you had the means to call back home in the event of an emergency.

We stayed at top notch places with great food. You really felt like you were on vacation. We had some real estate side trips to give us a taste of what is available in different areas of the country. It was really nice to become acquainted with other people on the tour who were visiting Panama for the same reasons as you.

Both Jackie and Briant gave us wonderful insights about the country and its people on our ride between towns. Sovereign Lady arranged for us to meet other expats including Richard & Nikki Detrich on their coffee farm and others once we arrived in Boquete. We stayed an extra week after the tour to see more of Panama, especially the area close to Costa Rica. You’ll see a lot more of Panama and gain greater insight into the Panama way of life & culture by staying an extra week.

THE PANAMA RELOCATION TOUR IS A MUST!

The Panama relocation tour is a MUST for anyone who is curious about what living in Panama would be like part-time or full-time. Jackie has planned every detail of this tour with great care and sensitivity to the needs of her travelers. She balances group experiences and personal time very well and provides individual attention to each person on the tour. And she keeps the schedule moving...with diplomacy!

You will appreciate the tremendous wealth of information she provides as well as her guest speakers, who are either expats or local professionals. It's also most helpful to see the price range and type of properties available. You will experience the full gamut of weather and type of scenery Panama has to offer, which is considerable!

Be sure to include a few extra days "on your own" so you can further explore. If you choose to take Jackie's lodging and restaurant recommendations you won't regret it. They are excellent!

I would like to add that Melissa's responsiveness was excellent and very reassuring.

IF I HAD NOT BOOKED THE TOUR I PROBABLY WOULD NOT BE LIVING IN PANAMA TODAY

Thank you, Jackie, for having the foresight to provide this tour for those of us interested in relocating to Panama.

I so enjoyed the February 2012 Panama Relocation Tour. It was a wonderful experience and I have just recently moved to Boquete, Panama. It was definitely worth the money spent as I could never duplicate what we did on this tour, the experiences we all had, and the stress-free atmosphere that prevailed throughout the tour. Truthfully, had I not booked this tour I probably would not be living In Panama today.

THE TOUR REALLY GIVES YOU A TRUE PICTURE OF WHAT LIFE IN PANAMA CAN BE LIKE

Thank you for a wonderful experience in Panama! Every detail was more than covered from the 25 cent bathroom admission fee to the all inclusive resort stay. We saw so many aspects of the country from the ocean to arid areas to the mountains with a bit of a tropical rainforest in between. It was great to meet expats already living in Panama and to hear their stories. The information they shared was most interesting and helpful. This tour really gives a true picture of what life in Panama can be like from a variety of perspectives. There seems to be a climate and a living style to meet the expectations of nearly anyone considering this country as a future home.It was fortuitous that we ran into Nathan at the Albrook airport on our way back to Panama City at the end of our extended stay. He was great support as we navigated the taxi scene at the airport. The support from the tour guides doesn't end on the last day of the tour! Jackie, Nathan, and Melissa remain available to assist with information and suggestions as future visits are planned or questions arise about living in Panama.

We will be back again to see how Panama has changed and grown as we get closer to our full time retirement date in a couple years. Thanks again for your support and assistance!

IT IS NOT A TOUR IN THE USUAL SENSE... IT IS WAY MORE!

Thank you again for a uniquely wonderful and informative trip. It was exactly what I was looking for. As a person seriously interested in relocating to Panama, the trip fit the bill perfectly. I truly appreciated the breadth of detail of necessary information about the relocation process, the introductions to helpful local resources, contacts, and a variety of people who had relocated. It was especially helpful to have the time to ask questions and explore their experiences. The written manual and map will be a great reference as I take my next steps.

The trip itself provided real and helpful experience of the variety of climates, locations, and communities where people are relocating- from the Pacific beaches to mountain towns. Everything remained lazer-focused on relocation. The pros and cons were explored without sugar-coating or sales. We experienced Panama as it is from the perspective of relocation. It is not a tour in the usual sense. It is way more.

Jackie takes the time to understand each person’s interest and readiness to relocate and makes sure she answers your questions, or puts you in contact with someone who can. Her focus is to provide the information you need to make a decision and to successfully relocate. It is unique and remarkable and she continuously adapts the trip to refine and improve the experience.

The entire trip was expertly managed, from initial contact and booking, through each day’s agenda. It is clear that everyone makes the extra effort. Jackie and her team made sure everything worked- the bus and driver were exceptional, the itinerary and timing worked for stops, meals, breaks to see the different locations, and the hotels along the way all flowed smoothly. Thanks to the evident knowledge of the country, careful planning, flexibility, and hard work of the team everything flowed smoothly with no gaps or gaffs.. All was focused on making this an exceptional experience. And they delivered!

I recommend without qualification taking a trip with Jackie’s Panama Relocation Tours for all who are contemplating relocation. At least once.

Ric Winstead

Considering Panama? This is the tour to take! The Panama Relocation Tour delivers exactly what it promises. This is not a real estate sales pitch nor a gilded showcase of life in paradise. Jackie Lange has configured a pragmatic guided travelogue for those considering moving. Her process begins with a few questions when you sign up designed to help you discover if you are actually ready for such a dramatic step.

The tour itself is well orchestrated, well run, on time, on topic, and efficient—that’s not to be taken for granted in a mañana culture—in addition to being informative, useful, and enlightening. Traversing half the country, from Panama City to the border of Costa Rica, the tour includes numerous stops in a variety of locales, staying in urban and rural areas, eating in both gringo and Panamanian cafes. Highlighting each day is a meeting with local ex-pats from that community for their perspective of life in Panama and/or with owners and visits to their homes for sale. (Just enough of these to give you a sense of what’s available. Again, this is not a real estate tour.)

Be prepared to re-examine your priorities on this trip. This is not a typical vacation. You will find yourself looking at the landscape in a new way, as a potential inhabitant rather than as a tourist. This can be unnerving at first. But if you are truly considering moving to Panama you owe it to yourself to take this tour.

Jim & Cynthia Fletcher

Thanks Panama Relocation Tours for putting together a stress-free itinerary which totally surpassed our expectations.

For anyone considering an exploratory trip to Panama, Jackie Lange’s Panama Relocation Tour is a must! The 6 day trip took us through so many different living environments from expat communities in Coronado, to homes in Las Tablas and David to our final stopping point in Boquete and Volcan.

On the trip you get a chance to experience what to expect living in different regions of Panama sampling weather, costs and variety of food, typical shopping experiences and housing offerings. The tour is comprehensive encompassing everything from the nuts-and-bolts to moving to Panama, tax considerations, how and why to hire an attorney, insurance considerations, opportunities for expats and so much, much more. Tour recipients leave with plenty of great documentation to refer to after the trip.

This is so much more than a bus trip with stops in different parts Panama. It’s an experience that convinced us that the people and the country of Panama is a place that my wife and I will return to again for a much longer stay (if not permanently)!

I wouldn’t hesitate recommending this trip to anyone who’d like to explore the possibility of relocating to Panama.Panama Relocation Tours has it all and more!

Thanks a million Jackie for everything. Appreciate seeing so much of the country and hearing all the info you provided. The Handbook is invaluable and I am glad to have it. Thanks too for filling in the cultural scene in Boquete. Loved seeing your home as that is more what we want. Your garden is to die for! The big bus was good to my back and very comfortable. Richard is amazing and generous with his information.

Now for shoveling out the garage, storage space, closets, etc. We've decided not to ship on a container.

Hope to see you in two years or less.

Sincerely,

Looking for a place with more constant and pleasant weather than we currently have, spending a lot of time on the web reading comparisons and blogs and oh so very positive International Living articles, and having visited El Valle de Anton via a cruise ship excursion, we found and signed up for Sovereign Lady’s Panama Relocation Tour. We figured that even if the tour didn’t turn out to be as described, we’d get a week of touring around Panama where we didn’t have to think about where to stay, where to eat, how to get to the next place, etc.

Pleasantly, the tour turned out to be exactly as described. We got to visit virtually all the locations in Panama we’d been reading about and pondering. As is appropriate for Panama, before even heading out on the tour, we got to meet with a lawyer who discussed the most frequently used visas and described the existence of a process to deal with a national criminal background check that comes back other than ‘no prior arrest data.’ We met a variety of ex-pats all quite willing to chat with a dozen+ strangers and/or let us wander around inside their homes, some of which were rented, some owned, spanning quite the range of living styles. Richard Dietrich, author of “The NEW Escape To Paradise: Our Experience Living & Retiring In Panama” accompanied our tour and, along with Jackie (the Sovereign Lady), filled in many little gaps in our understanding and provided validation information on a variety of perceptions gleaned from the various ex-pat websites and blogs. The tour was nicely balanced in terms of eating at both lower and upper end restaurants and staying at a (TripAdvisor) top-rated hotel in Panama City, an all-inclusive resort (near Coronado) and a couple quaint little places along the way. We got just the right amount of time (for us) to wander around in various stores to check out prices and availability and to explore Jackie’s and Richard’s home town of Boquete. Neither Jackie, nor Richard, know or addressed everything one could conceivably want to know about Panama, but the information provided was quite extensive, neither seemed to overstate and both readily tried to point the way to alternative sources of information when needed. We extended our stay in Panama on both ends of the tour with help in the arrangements readily and effectively provided by Melissa (Jackie’s daughter.)

Our bottom-line is that we in no way regretted having taken this tour, found the price to be quite reasonable for what we got and encourage anyone pondering relocating to, or establishing a snowbird’s nest in, Panama to sign up for the tour.

PANAMA RELOCATION TOURS REALLY DELIVERS!

If you are considering or only curious about having a presence in Panama, you can do no better than to take this tour. Jackie Lange
and her daughter Melissa have arranged a near seamless experience packed full of important information presented in a vacation-like, relaxed program. We traveled to a number of places on the pacific side of the country exposing us to a variety of towns, living choices and lifestyles. We met people who can assist with a move, people who have moved who shared their experiences and saw many options.

Though Chiriqui province was very charming, I am going to return to Panama to look at another area that has piqued my interest and may be the place for me. This tour has made me very positive about Panama, its “way of doing things” and its people. Even after the 6 books I read before arriving, Jackie gave us so much more important information and so many contacts, it was priceless.

Our accommodations were varied through the tour, a taste of the choices one has in Panama. The same spectrum was shown in housing options. There is apparently a wide choice of lifestyles available in Panama and places to enjoy them, two coasts, mountains, small towns, big cities. They have it all.

The people Jackie brought to the program, Richard Detrich, “Escape to Paradise” and Bob Adams “ Retirement Wave”
gave us an in person and personal view of the possibilities of our life in Panama.

Thanks Jackie, Well done!

Typically when we explore a new region we haven’t been, we rent a car and off we go. In Panama, I'm glad we didn’t. We came across the Panama Relocation Tours website and wondered if it was worth the money. We're happy to say, we were pleasantly surprised. The constant communication, well chosen hotels, guest lecturers and the depth of the 'boots on the ground experience’ from Jackie’s life in Panama made the trip a worthwhile investment and fun. Traveling with 12 other people isn’t typically our style however everyone of us is in the ‘same boat’ exploring retirement places which made it more educational to hear everyone’s concerns and input, not just ours. Over the period of a week, we traveled from one end of Panama to the other. We ate at fine restaurants and local Mom & Pops where lunch cost $3.50. We loved the diversity of the cities we saw and would recommend anyone considering Panama for relocation take the tour with Jackie first! Be sure to go into Panama City a couple days early and ask for Jackie's driver Jose to show you around the city.

EVERY MINUTE OF EVERY DAY WAS A LEARNING EXPERIENCE

If you are thinking about relocating abroad to Panama, this no sale pressure tour is the way to go. It’s a pleasant and relaxing way to travel with someone doing the leg work and planning for you. My wife Sharon and I (Stan) just returned from the July 2014 Panama Relocation Tour. We intended to venture out on our own and trace the same route that others have taken, trying to arrange a trip for this fall. Our plans quickly changed when I ran across the Panama Relocation Tour web site, checked some references, and within a few weeks we were touring all over Panama.To start off, all we had to do was make our airline reservation. After that, Melissa Lange did all the scheduling and arrangements for us. She arranged for us to be picked up at the airport, transported to our hotel, all included in the tour price. We arrived 2 days prior to the start of the tour, highly recommended, so you can tour Panama City at your leisure. Melissa has suggestions on places to visit and restaurants to try. Melissa’s mother, Jackie Lange, was at the hotel before the start of the tour visiting with the early arrivals and answering question.We all loaded in a nice big tour bus to start the tour. We had Richard and his wife Nikki join us on the bus. As we traveled over the next 6 days to Coronado, Santiago, Santa Fe, El Valle, David, Boquete and Volcan we were given so much information in-between stops that you will receive a wealth of knowledge that you didn’t know before about Panama and it’s the perfect time to ask questions while you are traveling. Every minute of everyday was a learning experience.If you are thinking about relocating to Panama, the Panama Relocation Tour will give you a great starting base in guiding you with your decision. There is no way we would have gained so much information and insight if we had ventured out on our own. Melissa and Jackie went above and beyond to make our tour very pleasant. We stayed another week afterwards and Jackie was still available answering any questions. A week after the tour, Melissa arranged for our transportation back to Panama City and to the airport, all included with the tour.Thank you Jackie and Melissa for providing this first class no sales pressure tour and continuing to be available for us.

THERE IS A WEALTH OF INFORMATION

A good friend of mine has been researching Panama for the past 10 years. I really had no intention of moving from the Cayman Islands where I have lived for the past 28 years, but as I stared to think about retirement I realized that there was a slim chance of maintaining the lifestyle I have by remaining in Cayman after phasing out of the workforce. So, I caught my friend’s “passion” for Panama and started doing my research. I came across Jackie’s site – Panama Relocation Tours….booked it and away I went!

The tour is not long, but there is a wealth of information that is imparted. From the expats you meet, to the locals, I can say without hesitation that Jackie does not settle for anything but the best and most reliable to provide their experience, knowledge and service.

Needless to say, I am now here in Panama, two months after doing the tour for a three month stay to “check it out”.

Jackie has helped me set up a bank account (on the tour), found a great apartment for me, took me grocery shopping when I arrived and more.
At the end of the tour, she says that it “doesn’t end here”. She is available to provide any information or assist in any way – and she means it.

I can’t say Panama is for everyone….I’ve only been here a short time, so I’m not yet sure if it’s even for me! I do have the advantage of living on an Island for many years where I haven’t had the conveniences that those living in the States, Canada, etc. are accustomed to, which makes it a bit easier to adjust.

I also have to mention Jackie’s daughter Melissa. In all of our correspondence she has been prompt, detail oriented and extremely helpful. They make a great team, and their business is sure to continue to thrive if they persist with their very high standards and concerns for those that take their tour. Panama Relocation Tours is well worth the money paid if you are seriously looking at Panama as your next home.

GAIN A WEALTH OF KNOWLEDGE

If anyone is planning on moving to Panama, Jackie's Panama Relocation Tour should be the FIRST step on the "to do list" for the move. The tour will eliminate a lot of lost time due to the lack of knowledge foreigners have about moving to Panama. It's an excellent tour and everyone will gain a wealth of knowledge from it.
