Have you ever wondered whether you could afford to visit the Caribbean? Below is our financial spend for our journey around St Vincent and the Grenadines in April and May 2017. Check out what we did during the fourteen days we explored St Vincent and the Grenadines.
Assumptions
- The costs are based upon a couple travelling together.
- We did not travel as part of an organised tour but as individual travelers.
- Not considered is the entry or exit transport into/out of the country.
Where We Travelled
Accommodation
With regard to accommodation costs, St Vincent and the Grenadines has been our most expensive destination to date. It was even slightly more costly than the USA.
Leisure
Our leisure activities included downloading and watching Pirates of the Caribbean – a must see given the number of scenes that were filmed here. We also did a day trip to Mayreau, the Tobago Cays and Palm Island in the Southern Grenadines (a must for anyone in the area) and hired a car for a day to explore St Vincent.
