You start in the heart of Manhattan, where iconic architecture, world-famous museums, trendy shops, and charming city parks effortlessly alternate. Immerse yourself in the cosmopolitan rhythm of New York: from a stroll through Central Park and views from the Empire State Building to an evening performance on Broadway or a dinner at one of the city's leading restaurants.
Next, you fly to sun-drenched Barbados, a tropical island in the eastern Caribbean, to the east of the other Caribbean islands and off the coast of Venezuela. Here, you will find pearl-white beaches, turquoise seas, and a relaxed lifestyle. But Barbados is more than just sun and sea: colonial charm, lively markets, a refined Bajan cuisine, and the famous rum tradition make the island a destination with character and class.
