An Extended Journey of Dazzling Skylines & Wildlife Exploration

Itinerary

1. Day 1 , San Juan, Puerto Rico 2027-01-04 Departure 17:00
   Explore the oldest US city for a dose of Caribbean history, slice of Spanish culture and twist of American dream. Roam historic Old San Juan alleyways to glimpse centuries-old forts and colourful colonial buildings. Learn how to move, as locals sashay out the salsa to rhythmic reggae beats. Shop the boho streets or glamorous boutiques for artisan goods, decadent designers and hand-rolled cigars. Experience world-class surfing, explore a tropical rainforest, attend a private rum cocktail tasting and polish off empanadas. Then retire to one of the beautiful beaches to soak up crystal clear waters and, perhaps, one last rum cocktail.
2. Day 2 , Philipsburg , Sint Marteen 2027-01-05 Arrival 08:00 Departure 18:00

   Princely Philipsburg reigns as the capital of the Dutch side of the dual-nation island of Sint Maarten/ and French Saint Martin. Lounging beside aptly named Great Bay, the seaside city weaves colourful streets lined with Dutch emporiums brimming with chocolates, cheeses and coveted luxuries. Kayak lapis-blue waters, dive amongst a kaleidoscope of reefs or gallop on horseback along shaded plantation trails. Play ‘lady luck’ in winning casinos or a round of golf beside an eternally blue sea. Every moment embraces the idea that a day in Philipsburg is royal.

3. Day 3 , St. John's (Antigua), Antigua and Barbuda 2027-01-06 Arrival 09:00 Departure 19:00
   An adrenaline rush awaits. Swim with stingrays. Zip-line through lush forests. Walk across a gorge on a scenic suspension bridge. Sip excellent aged rums. Taste the island with a chef. Or stroll St. John's old town to tour cottages laden with cheerful fretwork. Explore British forts atop Shirley Heights and Goat Hill. Then rest and rejuvenate at one of the snow-white beaches.
4. Day 4 , Little Bay, Montserrat 2027-01-07 Arrival 08:00 Departure 18:00
   Diminutive in stature but big on ambition, Little Bay is a testament to the resilience of Montserrat, where the 1997 eruption of Soufrière Hills Volcano turned fairy-tale capital Plymouth to ash. Today, a new city rises amid the emerald folds and transcendent beaches of the northern coast, where coral gardens bloom in Caribbean currents and humpback whales weave between the waves. Jungle hikes and kayaking adventures are rewarded with sublime sunsets in tropical beach bars that pay homage to the island’s musical legacy. Venture to the ruins of Plymouth and stand humbled before skeletal buildings submerged in a torrent of volcanic debris, then discover the forces of nature at the Montserrat Volcano Observatory for up-close views of the monstrous crater.
5. Day 5 , Road Town (Tortola), British Virgin Islands 2027-01-08 Arrival 08:00 Departure 18:00
   A tropical utopia with soaring peaks for climbing, waves for surfing, wrecks for snorkelling, and cocktails with locally sourced rum. All around Road Town, the capital of the British Virgin Islands, are streets lined with brightly coloured buildings built during the days of colonial Dutch and British rule. Check out Pusser’s Painkiller Bar for a namesake punch before venturing into the humid embrace of the high-canopied forest of Sage Mountain. Beyond are adventures at every turn; zip-line through treetops; dive coral-laden lagoons, explore jungles with 4x4’s, or lounge on countless postcard-perfect beaches. And, since this is the so-called “sailing capital of the Caribbean,” don’t miss catching a catamaran navigating to a scattering of uninhabited islands.

Adventurers can soar to the top of the Pico Isabel de Torres 793 mt (2,602 ft), dare to off-road to the Waterfalls of Damajagua, or kite-surf, catamaran, and zip-line over the ocean.

Tread softly across ivory-white sands before crossing the crystalline waters of Samaná Bay towards unscripted adventures. To the north, a primordial world of rainforests, waterfalls and secret coves, where hiking trails thread through lush forests to soul-stirring viewpoints. Travel south to paddle pristine mangroves serenaded by a symphony of birdsong or cruise to powder-soft beaches where coconut groves spill down to cerulean shores. Colourful clapboard houses outshone only by the radiance of bougainvillaea and hibiscus provide the backdrop for fresh fish feasts and rum punch sunsets.
