  • Ever wanted to experience an All Inclusive trip to the Caribbean?
    I spent a week on the island of Antigua, staying at the Verandah Resort.
    I was invited out there by Traverse Events and Antigua & Barbuda Tourism board to experience everything the island has to offer along with nearly 40 other different travel content creators.
    Together we go kayaking, scooter snorkelling, biking through St John's, watching the sunset at Shirley Heights and even became extras in a work out video for Fleur East.

    I just want to say thank you for showing my beautiful island.... Is one of the beautifulest island in the Caribbean I am not just saying that because I'm from Barbuda is our sister island also with pink sandy beaches... My favorite part of watching this video was Shirley heights I love going there on Sundays and watching the beautiful sunset... Hopefully one day I will have a beautiful background of my wedding... But once again thank you for showing my beautiful island...

    Every single video I watch on the Caribbean, hospitality has always been at such an insanely high level. I appreciate it so much, and having spoke to family members and friends who've visited such countries, they all say the same. That's why they revisit. The warm, welcoming, beautiful hearts of the native citizens.
    Thank you Caribbean for being a great example of how to treat guests who are admiring our so close beauty we call our home.

    However,, when you are released and you revert back to doing your own thing your skills are recoding and editing takes you above the rest of the stuff. Its seems a beautiful island but for me, it seems like a backpackers ideal with drink flowing and food galore.
    It would be interesting to see what you might have made as a travelogue had you been doing your own things.
    anyway once again done with humour and obviously a great deal of sharing and friendship making,

No one is against you doing these press trips I think anyone would be stupid not to accept a free trip to the Caribbean especially with like minded people! What I want to know is do you think you can go on a weeks all inclusive holiday to a resort and still ‘travel’ as in experience the culture of the island, do activities etc?

    • @karlwatsondocs
      @karlwatsondocs  5 років тому

      Well that’s what this week was, did load of activities. I actually signed up for too many. Should’ve given myself more time to explore the island by myself.
      The all inclusive part of this was just the accommodation, the activities were paid for by the tourism board, so basically you can stay at the hotel but do what you want during the day.
