Your Caribbean escapade begins in Barbados, where you’ll join Braemar before heading on to St Lucia. The island is home to many spectacular sites, including the soaring Pitons, the Diamond Botanical Gardens and Falls, and the bubbling sulphur springs at Soufriere. Afterwards, you’ll visit Grenada, the
‘Spice Island’. From St George’s, a fun-filled journey aboard a Rhum Runner boat awaits. Alongside volcanic crater lakes and an array of idyllic beaches, the island is home to a natural paradise, the Grand Etang National Park.
Oranjestad, on the beautiful island of Aruba, is the gateway to the unique Casibari Rocks and the shipwreck of the German freighter, Antilla. You can also admire the colourful, Amsterdam-esque buildings that line the waterfront, visit the island’s butterfly farm, or simply relax on the glorious beaches. In Ocho Rios you’ll have the chance to visit Jamaica’s most famous waterfall, Dunn’s River Falls. Alternatively, you may choose to enjoy a rafting experience along the Martha Brae River. This picturesque waterway is lined by whispering groves of bamboo and ferns.
In contrast, a visit to Santiago de Cuba presents the chance to uncover bustling streets and captivating history. The city is regarded as the root of the Cuban Revolution, with the Moncada Barracks and the Plaza de la Revolución key landmarks in Fidel Castro’s rise to power. Elsewhere, head to Céspedes Park and you’ll experience a slice of typical Cuban street life amid an abundance of colonial architecture.
In Tortola you can uncover the swashbuckling legends surrounding the area; taste authentic Caribbean rum in Road Town’s renowned Pusser’s Bar; or simply unwind on the vast sugar-white sands. On the following day you’ll have the chance to ride on the St Kitts Scenic Railway, before Antigua’s 365 beaches, stunning English Harbour and historic Nelson’s Dockyard beckon.
Martinique’s Fort-de-France is home to the St James Rum Distillery and is the perfect place to sample typical Creole cuisine. Back in Barbados, before you depart, you’ll have time to enjoy some of the highlights, perhaps the beautiful Hunte’s Gardens or going in search of Sea Turtles in the azure waters.
