Select your destination, and we'll pair you with an InteleTravel Advisor based on your travel needs. North America.
South America. Take A Cruise. Of course, some destinations are actually a collection of islands so if you are visiting places like the British Virgin Islands, Turks and Caicos, the Bahamas, the Caymans, St Kitts and Nevis or St Vincent and the Grenadines, you will probably take to the water during your holiday to explore the full diversity of each destination. Looking for luxurious pampering, awe-inspiring natural phenomena, thought-provoking cultural experiences, upmarket shopping and lots and lots of sun?
The Caribbean is astoundingly diverse in its range of holiday types so if you want a bit of everything then a multicentre break is the best way forward. You can have both! Your best bet is to embrace island time, relax and enjoy the ride. Regional planes are sometimes like old buses, seemingly stopping at every possible corner to pick up passengers — a boon for island-hoppers! There are many airlines operating within the Caribbean. There are some good local carriers with dozens of connections, which will give you ideas for itinerary building:.
However, there are regional ferries, which travel between several island groups. It was cool. The Bahamas is a coral-based archipelago that has over islands! We stayed on the main island of Grand Bahama although everyone will tell you that you must visit the smaller so-called family islands to see the real Bahamas. To try and keep costs down, we stayed with a local woman in a beautiful Bahamian Airbnb house, as this country is super expensive. We beach-hopped, explored on foot and we ate some good seafood here.
Jamaica Jamaica was next. We hired a car and set ourselves a very busy itinerary here. We wanted to see as much as we could in the time we had. We spent a night at Treasure Beach, which is more aimed at independent travellers, however, Negril had a much nicer beach and vibe.
The jerk chicken and rum tasted great in Jamaica and reggae music can be heard everywhere. Dominican Republic This country has been on our bucket list for quite some time so we were excited to arrive. We booked a charming little hotel located in the historical centre in the capital city of Santo Domingo and we instantly loved the vibes here.
A few reasons why we love the Dominican Republic. Good food and great coffee are everywhere, Uber is available to get around and everything feels affordable. We took buses to explore this island, different cities, beaches and areas and we loved it! The northern part of the Dominican Republic — Las Terrenas was our favourite. The Dominican Republic and Haiti share the same island — so why are they so different? Haiti Only two more countries left to see on this leg.
Next, we took a bus over the border from the Dominican Republic to enter Haiti. This was country number and our last country in the Caribbean. When you think of Haiti, you probably think of natural disasters… For instance, earthquakes or hurricanes.
Sadly it is a country that only makes it into the news when something bad happens. Near the city of Cap Haitien in the Northern part of the country are two main sites worth seeing. The second one is the Sans Souci Palace. We visited both of them and had a great time in Haiti. Read more about our time spent here below;. Cuba Cuba was not on the itinerary during our island hopping in the Caribbean this time. Cuba is incredible and still remains our favourite destination in this region.
From white sand beaches, colourful houses in Trinidad and the sound of music in gorgeous Havana, Cuba offers so much. We have travelled to Baracoa on the very end of the island and visited places such as Camaguey, Santiago, Cienfuegos and of course Vinales.
