Itinerary
Day 1, Miami, United StatesDeparture 17:00
Welcome to Miami and the sweep of South Beach - backdrop to every iconic Miami movie, and forefront of Latin American culture. Stroll through pastel-hued geometric buildings in the art deco district, to graffiti mural masterpieces at Wynwood Walls. Watch Latino life unfold in Little Havana - the heartbeat of this great city - where walk-up windows sell café cortadito, sweet sugarcane juice, hatuey beer and guava ice-cream. Watch passionate locals discuss politics, play dominoes and smoke cigars. Shimmy at a salsa class, shop designer boutiques and race marlin and sharks by speedboat. Then slow your pace to uncover rare and endangered species at the Everglades National Park outdoor oasis. You’ll find the Miami dream is real – and it’s not just Cuban heels that will give you a spring in your step.

Day 3, Puerto Plata, Dominican RepublicArrival 09:00Departure 18:00
The queen of the “Silver Coast”, Puerto Plata is treasured for her soaring cloud-shrouded peaks and stunning shining beaches. Once famously plundered by pirates — you too can storm the 16th-century Fortaleza San Felipe fort — now is coveted by modern-day aficionados seeking her bounty of aged rum, robust cigars, and rich chocolate. 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. Pro tip: save time for a buzzy beach club to chill with coconut-fused libations.

Day 6, Bridgetown, BarbadosArrival 08:00Departure 18:00
Gently breeze into the vibrant capital of Barbados. Steeped in fascinating history, with architecture to match, uncover the wonderfully laid-back West Indian ambiance.

Then return to restore on pastel pink sands at palm-studded beaches, where you’ll discover cocktail hour is endless, and measures of rum are copious.
Day 7, Deshaies, GuadeloupeArrival 09:00Departure 17:00
Slowly amble into little sleepy Deshaies. Stroll around the sheltered bay brimming with Creole homes, restaurants and a cosmopolitan crowd. Stroll along to the best of Guadeloupe; the fine golden sands of Grande Anse and the wonderful botanical garden with dreamy plants and ponds. Visit the Cocoa House for a taste of dark chocolate’s rich roots, climb the summit of La Grande Dame at La Soufriere, wander to waterfalls and visit Christopher Island bird reserve. Coconut palms, protected wildlife and a slow pace – you’ll be filled with love in this relaxed fishing village.
Day 8, Cruz Bay (Saint John), United States Virgin IslandsArrival 09:00Departure 19:00
Spidery tendrils of the coast are dotted with quiet coves and hidden harbours in sublime Saint John, the smallest of the US Virgin Islands. Tune in to island time on Trunk Bay, where turquoise waters caress powder-soft sands; this is what Caribbean dreams are made of. The motherly arms of Virgin Islands National Park embrace two-thirds of the isle, an emerald expanse of protected forest etched with mountain valleys, indigenous rock art and the ruins of old sugar plantations, crisscrossed by a web of scenic hiking trails. Kayak into the knotted mangroves around Hurricane Hole or plunge below the waves at Maho Bay, where turtles and rays sluice through crystal-clear waters.
Day 9, San Juan, Puerto RicoArrival 08:00Departure 20:00
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.

Marvel at a landscape rugged and wild with wind-bent Divi Divi trees, kilometres of powder-white beaches and sandy deserts where cacti thrive under a luminescent sun. And don’t miss the Natural Bridge, formed by waves crashing on coral rock. Aruba is an island blessed.
Day 12, Willemstad, CuraçaoArrival 08:00Departure 23:00

Day 13, Kralendijk, BonaireArrival 09:00Departure 19:00
Unwind in the beautiful island of Bonaire, rooted in Dutch heritage. Immerse in a dazzling underwater wonderland where warm cobalt waters make way for blissful swimming, sailing and snorkelling. Inland is just as enticing with pink-hued sands and island cars that bear ‘paradise’ badges of honour. Journey off-road through Arawak history, kayak through mangroves and visit saltwater lagoons at the aptly named Goto Lake – where flocks of pink flamingos pose.

sibling of Guadeloupe and queen of the Îles des Saintes, French charm and Caribbean
culture are woven together in laid-back towns and sleepy fishing villages. High

sunlight and sailboats afloat on gin-clear bays.
Day 17, Philipsburg , Sint MarteenArrival 09:00Departure 19:00
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.
Day 18, Jost Van Dyke, British Virgin IslandsArrival 08:00Departure 18:00
Named for a Dutch pirate who once encamped here, Jost Van Dyke is a petite jewel with a bounty of lush landscapes and beautiful beaches. Hike (or water taxi) to Bubbly Pool, a natural jacuzzi created as waves at high tide crash through a crevasse. Kick back on the powder-fine sands of White Bay, swimming the turquoise shallows, finding zen at the floating spa or succumbing to the infamous Painkiller, the dark rum and coconut cocktail created in the 1970s at the Soggy Dollar Bar, polestar of the cheerful island vibe.
