The Ultimate Transit: 22 Days Through the Panama Canal in 2028

For many travelers, the Panama Canal isn’t just a destination: it’s a rite of passage. It is one of the seven wonders of the modern world, an engineering marvel that reshaped the globe. On April 1, 2028, a special group will set sail on a voyage that captures the very essence of "Bucket-List" travel.

Getaway by Tonya Jean Becker is thrilled to invite you to join our exclusive Panama Canal group sailing for a 22-day odyssey aboard the elegant ms Eurodam. This journey will take us from the sun-drenched shores of Fort Lauderdale, through the historic locks of the Panama Canal, and up the stunning Pacific Coast to the majestic beauty of Vancouver.

The Journey of a Lifetime

Imagine waking up to the gentle hum of the Eurodam as it glides toward the entrance of the canal. This isn’t a partial transit; we are making the full journey from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Over 22 nights, you will witness the landscape change from the vibrant Caribbean to the lush jungles of Central America, the rugged beauty of the Mexican Riviera, and finally, the cool, temperate rainforests of the Pacific Northwest.

Our route is carefully curated to offer a mix of historic exploration and relaxation:

  • Cartagena, Colombia: Walk the colorful streets of this UNESCO World Heritage walled city.
  • The Panama Canal: A full day dedicated to transiting the locks: a front-row seat to history.
  • Central American Gems: Discover the natural wonders of Puntarenas, Costa Rica, and the rich culture of Puerto Quetzal, Guatemala.
  • The Mexican Riviera: From the golden sands of Cabo San Lucas to the vibrant energy of Puerto Vallarta.
  • The West Coast: Scenic stops in San Diego, Santa Barbara, and Astoria lead us to the charming Victoria, BC, before our final arrival in Vancouver.

Life Aboard the Eurodam

As a Holland America Line ship, the Eurodam is celebrated for its mid-sized elegance and focus on service. The ship offers a sophisticated atmosphere that appeals perfectly to adults and bucket-list seekers who appreciate a quieter, more refined cruising experience.

From the world-class dining at the Pinnacle Grill to the soul-stirring performances at Lincoln Center Stage, every detail is designed for your comfort. Spend your sea days attending a cooking demonstration at the Culinary Arts Center, or simply find a quiet corner on the promenade deck to watch the horizon with a good book.
