August 5, 2021 Leonardo Torrence

Looking for a Caribbean cultural melting pot renowned for its Carnival and pulsating to the beat of steel drums, soca music, and calypso? Trinidad is also lined with relaxing beaches and rainforest waterfalls. Nature watching is colorfully kaleidoscopic, with over 450 bird, 600 butterfly, and 700 orchid species. Golf, hiking, mountain biking, surfing, kayaking, fishing, and boating are among the outdoor pastimes. Cool off with fresh cane juice and sea moss milkshakes. Vegetarian food is plentiful. Eat curries and explore India’s influence at Maha Sabha Indian Caribbean Museum and the Waterloo Temple over the sea. Visit Port of Spain, and stroll and jog in Queen’s Park Savannah, near the Botanical Gardens, Emperor Valley Zoo, and Magnificent Seven buildings. The Savannah attracts truckloads of fresh coconuts, and doubles men sell coveted aloo pies. Walk around Independence Square and the Brian Lara Promenade. The Central Bank Money Museum in downtown’s financial district displays doubloons, gold bars, and Slave Savings Bank memorabilia. View Columbus Square’s 1836 Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception. Parliament meets in Woodford Square’s Red House. King’s Wharf is where cruise ships and Tobago ferries dock. The Venezuela ferry docks at Williams Bay. Near the Chaguaramas Military History & Aerospace Museum is a marina with yachts, sailboats, dry docks, and boat hires. The South Quay’s Fort San Andreas, built by Spain in the 1700s, has a small Port of Spain history museum branch of the National Museum and Art Gallery of Trinidad and Tobago.

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.

Your 4-hour tour starts you off with a drive through a winding country road to visit a farmers' market located in a very scenic and lush valley This market focuses on organic produce and being environmentally friendly. Besides being able to do some shopping, you will also be enjoying some of the food the indigenous tribes used to eat. You will then be driven to the market town of Chaguanas where your senses will be enjoying the sights, sounds, smells, and tastes (so walk with an empty tummy!) You will be immersed in agricultural life in Trinidad while having brunch stops throughout the experience. We keep the tours small (no more than 6 persons) and lots of fun!

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!
