Honeymoon

Trinidad and Tobago

For our honeymoon we will be traveling to Trinidad and Tobago for 12 nights. We will spend the first six in Trinidad, where we will participate in Carnival with dear friends. We experienced Carnival last year right after our engagement and loved it so much we knew we wanted to go back again. We will arrive the Thursday before and spend Carnival weekend going to a variety of events, concerts, and fetes (parties) leading up to the main event, Carnival Monday and Tuesday. On those days we will dance through the streets with thousands of others, and we can't wait. After the revelry of Carnival we will take a twenty-minute flight to Tobago for a much more tranquil, serene part of the honeymoon. We will stay at an eco-resort outside of a small fishing village in a treehouse-like cabin overlooking the ocean. Days will be spent wandering the beach, swimming in the ocean, and taking in the views.

• Airfare (portion of tickets)

  Help us fly to Trinidad!

• Port of Spain AirBnb

  We will stay for six nights in an AirBnB in the heart of Port of Spain near Carnival festivities. It is nothing fancy but it's a great location with an incredibly kind and welcoming host.

• Kiddie Carnival

  On Carnival Saturday the kids of Trinidad have their own carnival parade and it is the cutest thing ever. The event is free but we will need lots of water, snacks, and a taxi back.

• Doubles

  An absolutely incredible Trinidadian street snack, doubles consist of curried chickpeas and chutney in a naan-like bread. So delicious.

• Panorama (2 Tickets)

  The Saturday of Carnival weekend the best steel drum bands in the Caribbean come together to compete in Panorama, the championship final concert.

• Brian Lara Party VIP Experience (2 Tickets)

  Carnival Sunday famous Trinidadian cricket player Brian Lara hosts the fete of the season at his home, featuring stilt walkers, popular artists, and plenty of Trinidadian celebrity sightings.

• J'ouvert (2 Tickets)

  Carnival Monday starts before sunrise with J'ouvert, a Creole derivation of the French "jour ouvert", meaning "day opening." Revelers dance through the streets throwing paint on one another.

• In the Band...Day 1 (2 passes)

  To participate in Carnival Monday and Tuesday revelers join a band. The cost of admission includes food, drink, and 10-15 trucks filled with speakers providing the music for the party.

• In the Band...Day 2 (2 passes)

  A highlight of Day 2 is crossing the stage with your band, which is where all of the bands' costumes are judged.

• Women's Costume for Annasara

  For Carnival Tuesday everyone dresses in the costume of their band. For women this usually means a smallish jeweled bikini and giant feathered wings. It looks intimidating but is a body-positive joy!

• "Pretty Mas" Makeup

  They call Tuesday "pretty mas" for a reason! Aside from the elaborate costumes, women mostly have their makeup professionally done.

• Men's Costume for Brad

  Per usual, men have it much easier and wear shorts branded with the band's name and various accessories.

• Carnival Shoes

  Turns out that proper footwear is key to lasting the two main days of Carnival; last year we logged 50k steps per day. We will both be bringing new shoes in great shape to support us on the road.

• Carnival Care Kit

  Turns out that making it through Carnival requires a lot of random extras like second skin, electrolyte patches, and Tylenol. Help us stay in good shape for the road!

• Late Night Roti

  After a long day of dancing through the street, late-night street snacks are necessary!

• Flight to Tobago (2 tickets)

  From Trinidad we take a 20 minute flight to Tobago on a small puddle-jumper plane.

• Castara Resort Stay in Tobago

  After Carnival we will fly to more tranquil Tobago and stay for six nights at Castara resorts, a collection of 17 eco-friendly treehouses overlooking the ocean on Tobago's western coast.

• All of the Sunscreen

  Last year we went through a full bottle of sunscreen every day of Carnival, required by the combination of small costumes, high temps, and 90% humidity. Send us with a full week's supply!

• Lunch in Tobago

  We anticipate daily walks down to the fishing village near our resort to eat whatever people have caught that day.

• Couples Massage

  Carnival definitely takes a toll on the body, and we would love to recoup with a couples massage at our resort in Tobago.

• Shark Bake

  Shark sandwich with lots of fixins, a popular beach food.

• Bioluminescence Tour

  A nighttime guided tour to see the emission of light from sea creatures in the dark. Spooky!

• Dinner in Tobago

  Romantic dinner on the beach.

• Return Flight from Tobago (2 Tickets)

  A short flight will return us to Trinidad to connect with our flight to the United States.

• Return Airfare from Trinidad (portion of ticket)

  At some point we will have to fly home
