10 Day Trips from in Trinidad and Tobago That You Shouldn't Miss

March 31, 2022 Alice Mieles

This tiny twin island republic offers an enticing mix of cultural activities and eco adventure. Located just off the tip of Venezuela, lively Trinidad, the larger of the two, boasts energetic nightlife in modern capital Port-of-Spain. Driving on the North Coast Road reveals lush forest and breathtaking views. Tobago, two hours away by fast ferry, is comparatively serene. Azure seas contrast with pale pink sands and golden sunsets. Protected rainforest and stunning coral reefs complete this paradise.

Despite the fact that Covid-19 has drastically impacted tourism in Tobago and we had to get a later tour, our experience was not one to forget. Our driver arrived early and was very helpful and friendly. On the way to and from the tour, he gave us useful tips and pointed out scenic locations. He also made every effort to accommodate us. The bucco reef was beautiful and we got the chance to go snorkelling. Truly an amazing experience. Would definitely do it again.

I should start by saying, food tours are my thing so me saying this was the best food tour EVER is well-considered. I was in Trinidad alone for two nights and all I knew was that I wanted to eat doubles and have a roti. This was my first time to Trinidad & Tobago but I’m lucky enough to have had some great Trini’ food in London. Or so I thought! Turns out nothing tastes better than a Trini’ food tour, in Trinidad with a Trinidadian who has the tea on the very best places to eat. Firstly, Anthony is a gem. You’re in safe hands whether a solo traveller or in a group. His communication and helpfulness from immediate booking of the tour was great. I had the privilege of being the only person on my nighttime food tour - I think I might have been the last or one of the last tours before the pandemic hit full on in March 2020. In fact, the tour was one of the last things I did that was in the old normal! If there is ever a place where a carnivore could happily become vegan / vegetarian, it’s Trinidad. I had doubles, beef roti, corn soup, a pork cutter, soursop icecream and everything was incredible. Not to mention the great history of Trinidad, it’s people and its food, that Anthony will keep you entertained with. If you only go one one tour in Trindad, make it one with Trinidad Food Tours.

This was a great experience. The mud volcano was great. We were able to have it all alone. It’s true, it’s not hot. BRING HIKING SHOES, or shoes you do not mind losing or getting dirty. Nick is a PHENOMENAL guide. He really knows the country’s history. The hike to the beach is BEAUTIFUL!

Experience with a difference, a natural mud bath at L’eau Michel Mud Volcano in south Trinidad. Unlike other mud volcanoes in Trinidad, the mud at L’eau Michel is semi solid and liquid enough for visitors to bathe in.  The mud flows out through active vents. The mud here is not hot despite what the term ‘volcano’ might suggest, the mud is cool and smooth and so dense it keeps you a float. This is usually followed by a short 30-minute hike to the southern coast to L’eau Michel Beach. The tour concludes with a stop at the Roti Shop and Debe to experience their Cuisine. (Which is included in the cost. A minimum of two persons is required we do accommodate one person at a extra cost of 50 percent

Our tour guide Jeffery was excellent! He was very knowledgeable and personable and we enjoyed our time with him. We were looking for a overview of Port of Spain, and Trinidad and Tobago and he delivered just that. He also knew all the good places for tasty local food.
