Stay : Trinidad and Tobago in 3 weeks
Whether or not it's worthwhile to stay in Trinidad & Tobago depends on the time of year. The highlight of Trinidad's tourist appeal is obviously Carnival week. You'll need to devote 4 days to Carnival before setting off to explore the islands on a short tour of 10 days or more.
The dry season (January to June) is ideal for beaches and lounging.
