Quant a Trinitat i Tobago
La Trinitat i Tobago, la seu de la celebració de carnestoltes més gran del Carib, és la nació més meridional del Carib situada a set milles a l'est de la costa veneçolana. Classificada com la nació més feliç del Carib per l’Informe Mundial de la Felicitat de les Nacions Unides, el 2013 i el 2015, la distinta i harmoniosa barreja de cultures, cuina eclèctica i tresors mediambientals de la destinació continua atraient viatgers de totes les edats a les seves costes. Lloc de naixement del llimbe i el famós steelpan, l'únic instrument acústic inventat al segle XX, a més d'una barreja diversa de festivals i esdeveniments mensuals, no és estrany que Trinitat sigui coneguda com la "capital cultural del Carib". Sister island Tobago ofereix un ambient caribeny per excel·lència amb platges apartades, pobles pintorescos, vil·les privades i atraccions ecològiques guardonades. Tobago és la llar del corall cerebral més gran de l’hemisferi occidental i la reserva protegida més antiga de l’hemisferi occidental, The Main Ridge Rainforest. Vine a explorar Trinitat i Tobago, el veritable Carib!
