The Revive Ghana retreat trip provides you with an opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals and network over a week that includes accommodations, meals, drinks, and all the cultural experiences and events you can handle.
In 2019, Ghana celebrated 400 years after the transatlantic slave trade by welcoming many African Americans & other cultures to Ghana to celebrate Ghana's freedom. Beyond the return the nation has made several efforts to bring home others from the diaspora to continue to encourage learning, expansion, & knowledge of the Ghanaian culture.

What is the refund and cancellation policy?
Miss.BE Life Coaching Services and Team reserves the right to cancel any trip for any reason, but will not cancel a retreat less than 60 days before departure except for unusual or unforeseen circumstances outside of our control. Cancellation by Participant: Please be sure you want to attend. While we understand that life happens, we cannot refund or transfer any deposits for our retreats. You will only be credited an amount based on the time and amount deposited when canceling. Please note that there will be no refunds or discounts for arriving late, leaving early, flight cancellations, travel delays, or illness. We wish we could compensate people for unforeseen circumstances (injury, family emergency, etc), but we have costs already incurred when reserving retreat centers and excursions. To protect yourself, purchase travel insurance before your trip. Cancellation by Miss.BE Life Coaching and team: We may cancel a trip at any time before departure due to natural disasters, terrorism, political instability, COVID-19, or other external events that make it no longer viable to operate the planned retreat. If your trip is canceled, we will notify you immediately and provide instructions for the next steps. In circumstances where the cancellation is due to external events outside our reasonable control, credits will be less than any unrecoverable costs. We are not responsible for any incidental expenses that you may have incurred as a result of your booking, including but not limited to vaccinations, travel insurance, or non-refundable flights.
