A Tropical Escape to Antigua and BarbudaDay 1: Arrival in AntiguaOur journey to the Caribbean paradise of Antigua and Barbuda begins with a warm welcome at V.C. Bird International Airport. The moment we step out, the tropical breeze and the vibrant hues of the island instantly set the tone for an unforgettable getaway. After a smooth check-in at our beachfront resort, we unwind with a refreshing cocktail and marvel at the breathtaking sunset over the crystalline waters of the Caribbean Sea.Day 2: Explore St. John's and Shirley HeightsOur first full day is dedicated to exploring the capital city of St. John's. The lively streets are alive with the sounds of steel drums and the vibrant colors of local markets. We visit the historic Nelson's Dockyard, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and hike up to Shirley Heights for panoramic views of English Harbour. In the evening, we join a lively Caribbean barbecue at Shirley Heights, complete with live music and a festive atmosphere.Day 3: Relax on Jolly Beach Antigua is renowned for its pristine beaches, and today we head to Jolly Beach, a stretch of powdery white sand framed by turquoise waters. We bask in the sun, take a dip in the warm sea, and indulge in water activities like snorkeling and paddleboarding. The beachside bars offer refreshing tropical drinks and local cuisine, providing a perfect blend of relaxation and adventure.Day 4: Catamaran Cruise to Barbuda A short catamaran cruise takes us to the sister island of Barbuda, famous for its pink sand beaches. We explore the Frigate Bird Sanctuary, home to a large colony of magnificent frigatebirds. The translucent waters beckon us for a swim, and we savor a beachfront picnic with freshly caught seafood. The laid-back charm of Barbuda makes for a tranquil day away from the bustling energy of Antigua.Day 5: Adventure in Antigua's Rainforest For a change of scenery, we embark on an exhilarating zip-lining adventure through Antigua's lush rainforest. The adrenaline rush is complemented by the breathtaking views of the island's interior. Afterward, we cool off with a dip in the natural pools formed by the cascading waterfalls. This eco-adventure adds a touch of excitement to our tropical retreat.Day 6: Cultural Immersion in Betty's HopeTo delve into Antigua's history, we visit Betty's Hope, a restored sugar plantation dating back to the 17th century. The well-preserved mills and artifacts provide insights into the island's colonial past. We learn about the era of sugar production and its impact on Antigua's development, gaining a deeper appreciation for the cultural heritage of the islands.Day 7: Departure with Last-Minute Beach Bliss As our sun-soaked journey in Antigua and Barbuda comes to an end, we savor the last moments on the beach, collecting seashells and creating lasting memories. With a heart full of the warmth of the Caribbean, we bid farewell to this tropical haven, knowing that the sun-kissed bliss of Antigua and Barbuda will linger in our minds long after we return home.

Kori is the best agent to work with. Her knowledge in airlines and travel destinations is wonderful. I gave her a few spots in Mexico I would like to visit , and she had information sent to me within the next day.
I love her enthusiasm and professionalism.
