An Accidental Tourist: A Caribbean Misadventure

Ten Countries, No Cruise Ships Allowed

By: Jason Smart

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Ignoring the usual cruise ship option, Jason Smart visits the Caribbean by air. Utilising the services of much-maligned Liat Airlines, he hops between the islands. Starting in Barbados and ending in Suriname, Jason Smart's latest light-hearted travelogue takes in the beauty, nature and history of ten independent Caribbean nations, focusing upon their capital cities. He observes hummingbirds in Trinidad, visits a Hollywood film set in St Vincent, witnesses a beating in St Lucia, walks around an old slave market in St Kitts, is almost rained out in Antigua, and sees hurricane damage in Dominica. His trip almost ends in disaster in Georgetown, Guyana, when he ends up in a downtown hospital. Caribbean Island Hopping sees Jason Smart visit Barbados, Trinidad, Grenada, St Vincent, St Lucia, Antigua, St Kitts, Dominica, Guyana and Suriname. Jason Smart is the published author of eleven other travel books: The Red Quest Flashpacking through Africa The Balkan Odyssey Temples, Tuk-tuks and Fried Fish Lips Panama City to Rio de Janeiro Bite Size Travel in North America Rapid Fire Europe Crowds, Colour, Chaos Meeting the Middle East From Here to Anywhere Africa to Asia
