First of all I am from Trinidad which is the Sister Isle of Tobago and I'll tell you if you want a fun filled vacation Tobago is the place to be. During the year there are soo many ativities like Carnival in February, the Great Race in July/August and even the Tobago Heritiage Festival.

Other than that if you are looking for something other than activities Tobago has a lot of great sites one of my favourites is Fort King George boy is the sene beautiful from this point it's absolutely breath taking. The atmosphere on the whole is quite relaxed and the restuarants have great foods; there is the Inernational House of Pancakes and Cafe Coco both in Crown in the Crown point area.

The Beaches are beautiful and the great part is that there are beaches gentle enough for those who are not great swimmers and there are those available for water sports.

The way to get around is quite simple if you are unable to rent a car because taxi's are widely available and the fares are quite reasonable and the good part is that there are taxi services which you can call in order to take you around as well.

The shopping is okay cause there are malls in Scarbrough which is the Capital and its about 20mins drive from the Airport in Crown Point. There is also a new Shopping Complex on the Route to Scarbrough as well.

Tobago has many Forts and there is a Botanical Garder and a Museum in Scarbrough as well which you can visit for I believe was a small fee.

For me Tobago is just be go and be away from the hustle and bustle of Trinidad especially when you don't have a very long vacation period.

Can i start by saying great place and great people.A couple of points that need to said .Pigeon Point beach a serious accident waiting to happen while i was there there were people swimming and people snorkling and jet ski's comming within 10 mtrs of the beach at very high speed .( this is a beach to be avioded .Also the high price of meals in some hotel restaraunts they are charging european prices for average food so check the price before ordering .Best place i found to eat the Italian place at the plantations hotel. also shore thing .Worst place Tartaruga in Bucco Village bad food at very high prices. ( great food and entertainment at the sunday school Bucco Village .Try the Island tours they are very good . Not worth hiring a car .

A review of Tobago Weddings.

When we first decided that we wanted to get married in Tobago, we knew that we were going to need a lot of help to get organized and make our ideas come to life. Even though we had a simple wedding in mind--just the two of us, nothing elaborate, we knew that there would be more to making this all happen than meets the eye. So, we found the Tobago Weddings website and sent an inquisitive email to Marie Dilworth. And from then on it was smooth sailing. Marie is an angel. In moments of stress or confusion, a quick reply from her was like a beautiful song! She is an expert, giving us options and really tailoring what we wanted for a truly individual and unforgettable experience. Marie took the time to get to know us, and see us together. She showed us nearby options of places we could have the ceremony, and arranged for us to meet with the minister who was to marry us. Marie also helped us navigate through the paperwork of applying for the license (as well as finding the building itself!) and found a photo package that was just right for us. She knows what she is doing in this business.

I won’t say that I put my trust in others lightly, especially with something as important and life-changing as a wedding, but I will say that I never felt a moments doubt as to whether I was in good hands with Marie. I never had to worry about a thing. Marie knows what she is doing, and she does it incredibly well. She is a dear, kind, thoughtful and understanding woman, and it is inconceivable to me that this experience, this sacred union, could have happened without her. If you have any doubts, we will tell you in all honesty that this was certainly not a cookie-cutter experience; this was personal from the moment of her first email reply to our last hug good-bye. Thank you so very much, Marie, words cannot express how great you are and how grateful we are to you.

DO NOT VISIT TOBAGO unless you wait at least eight years for the island to work extremely hard on their customer service skills. The island is tropical yes, however, there is an abundance of stray cats and dogs on the island which is pitiful. I recently returned from Tobago. Although the islanders are nice enough the Tourist Board should take note and work as hard as the other west indian islands do and make travellers feel welcome and not that we are causing a problem. Do not under any circumstances trust the airline TOBAGO EXPRESS. I will write about the travesty of this airline in my next review. I saw no public transport and its difficult to walk on the roads as they are unfinished and not safe. One good point - Sandy's B&B and the restaurant/bar Bonkers next door.
