A nice article written by Amy Bertrand in St Louis showcases Panama.<\/p>\n

\n

Every Thursday I write about a place I’d love to go. All I need are time and money.<\/p>\n

Today I\u2019d love to explore Panama City, Panama.<\/p>\n

The Westin Playa Bonita’s \u201cPanama Past to Present\u201d package takes travelers to the \u00a0UNESCO World Heritage Site, Casco Viejo, on a behind-the-scenes tour led by the\u00a0Esperanza Social Venture Club<\/a> comprised of former gang members. That’s right: former gang members.<\/p>\n

Join the club’s Facebook page<\/a> to learn more about the initiative.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

In addition to accommodations, the package includes:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Fortaleza tour of Casco Viejo<\/p>\n

\u2022 Day tour to historic town of Portobelo<\/p>\n

\u2022 Visit to Panama Canal expansion sites<\/p>\n

\u2022 deluxe accommodations<\/p>\n

\u2022 daily buffet breakfast<\/p>\n

\u2022 one dinner with comp bottle of house wine<\/p>\n

Rates start at $225 a night. To book visit, www.westinplayabonita.com.<\/a><\/p>\n

From the email, about Casco Viejo and Esperanza Social Venture Club<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Today, Casco Viejo is known for its winding cobblestone streets filled with upscale shops and trendy restaurants, but that wasn\u2019t always the case as many of the area\u2019s youth have been involved with gangs since they were in grade school. As part of the city\u2019s gentrification efforts, a fundraising organization called Esperanza Social Venture Club provides the reformed young adults with a forum to share their personal stories, earn money to support their families and ensure that Casco Viejo remains a zona de paz (peaceful place).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
