Portray of the Destination
If a mix of vibrant culture and spiritual adventure is what you are looking for, look no further
than Trinidad and Tobago. Located off the tip of Venezuela, these two islands truly offer something
for everyone, from the buzz of its thriving Trinidad to the exotic serenity of Tobago.
Trinidad, the larger of the two islands, is considered the “big sister” of Tobago in terms of
industry and energy. The cosmopolitan city of Port of Spain, the country's capital, will never
leave visitors bored, offering an exciting nightlife and excellent food. Yet beyond this bustling
city, a hidden oasis can be found; go for a drive along the North Coast Road, where the lush
rainforests complement stunning views of the Caribbean Sea.
If the excitement of Trinidad is overwhelming enough, the peaceful tranquility of Tobago is
just the right medicine. This island, blessed with deep blue seas and beautiful secluded beaches,
is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the stunning sunsets. Opportunities for animal lovers and
adventure sport enthusiasts are endless, from scuba diving in the fabulous coral reefs, to
turtle-watching on Mathura Beach. Nature lovers are also in luck, for Tobago is home to the oldest
protected rainforest in the Western Hemisphere. Round off the perfect holiday with the annual
Carnival, a two-day explosion of colour, culture and calypso. No other destination combines such
robust energy with relaxing soul.
