Serene bays, endless beaches of white sands lapped at by the tantalising blue waters of the Caribbean Sea and patches of dense rainforest break up the traditional rural settlements and hotels that dot the islands of Guadeloupe.
A truly unique destination boasting a rich Franco-Caribbean culture, the buzz of city life and a plethora of bars and restaurants, all surrounded by tropical beauty, means there is plenty to explore.
Whether you are looking for complete relaxation, to soak up the culture as you meander around the string of quaint villages or an exhilarating adventure out in the rainforest, Guadeloupe’s varied landscape, friendly atmosphere and beautiful coastline will be unforgettable.
Inspiring Travel company offer tailor made luxury holidays to Guadeloupe which suit your individual needs – from beach holidays and family getaways through to honeymoons with a difference.
