About this book

The Rough Guide to Trinidad and Tobago is the definitive guide to these high-spirited twin islands. White-sand beaches, swaying palms and reef-studded waters are all here for the taking, but Trinidad and Tobago turns the Caribbean stereotype on its head, offering a whole lot more than sun and beachlife. The Rough Guide to Trinidad and Tobago gives you insider information on everything from watching leatherback turtles lay eggs on the beaches, to navigating the multitude of Carnival fetes and Calypso tents and playing "mas" on the streets of Port of Spain. Up-to-date listings and tips give you the lowdown on the islands' brilliant dining and nightlife scenes. And from boutique hotels on the sand to budget rooms, local guesthouses to lavish villas, our accommodation reviews will help you find a room that suits your needs. Whether your tastes are striking out on rainforest hikes, cooling off in hidden waterfalls, or exploring Hindu temples and Indo-Trinidadian food, The Rough Guide to Trinidad and Tobago will ensure you get the very best out of your stay.
