Caribbean

The Dominican Republic, with its stunning nature, beautifully restored architecture and extraordinarily rich culture is the second largest and one of the most intriguing Caribbean countries. It is undisputedly geographically diverse and boasts a breathtaking mountain scenery, national parks with rushing waterfalls and rivers, hot deserts and wide, sandy beaches. Top resorts provide an endless array of water sports, recreation, and entertainment options. Immerse yourself in the vibrant culture of the Dominican Republic and explore ancient monasteries and cobblestoned streets during the day and a buzzing nightlife after the sun goes down.

Among the endless paradisaical spots that define the Caribbean, Jamaica remains an island that beats to its own rhythm. It is equally as beautiful as it is strong, with crystalline waters flowing around coral reefs and breaking over white sandy beaches. Vast stretches of untouched nature feature cascading waterfalls, mystical caves and breathtaking mountain ranges. Jamaica entices visitors with uncountable opportunities to explore the island and its surroundings, be it on foot, on a bamboo raft or by diving and snorkeling. Jamaican culture with its creole influences resonates everywhere and you can taste it in the rich stews, African spices and of course, the Jamaican rum.

A trip to Cuba constitutes a veritable time-warp, a journey into a postcard world of classic cars, dilapidated colonial buildings, socialist propaganda and prodigious musical flair. It is a place unlike any other in our times – for now. Changes have already come about that allow visitors to interact with locals more closely than ever by staying at family-run guesthouses and eating in private kitchens and shopping at local galleries and workshops. A long-standing cultural powerhouse on the Latin American level, Cuba is ready to explode onto the world stage.
