Just as anywhere in the world you visit just be carefull but you will have a blast.

Here is a copy of a vacation schedule I listed for someone who asked previously.

Have a blast. Do a little research and you will be ok.

I am planning your vacation for you.
======================================...
Here it is for your first 7 days.

Day 1 - Thursday
Get into Trinidad on a Thursday afternoon no later than 7:55 pm. So you could take the Caribbean airlines from NYC at 1:45 am in the morning or AA from Miami at 8:00 am and landing at 2:00 pm. Taking Continental is a stretch because that landing at 8:40 pm.

Now Thursday night is hang-out in St. James area at the bars until 11:00 pm. Then it is straight to 51 night club for Soca, Reggea, Hip Hop, and dancehall till 4:00 am Friday morning.

Friday - Day 2
Relax yuhself until 11:00 am. Get yuh ras up and head-out down town to experience the shopping and cultrue a-bit.

Get home around 3:00 pm and take a rest, because we have a long night.
Now yuh going to Jenny's on the Blvd for dinner and enjoy some local food. After that is Zen night club. Hope yuh could handle the Trini mem, because sure as hell they are going to handle you.

Saturday - Day 3
Get yuh ras outa bed at around 11:00 am and head straight to Maracus beach. Enjoy a little tasting local bear and a bake and shark.

Saturday night go all local and find ah soca party.

Sunday - Day 4
Wake up the same time and spend a relaxing day around the savannah. You will be surprised how much you can do around there and the interrest people you will meet. There is also the gardens, and the sorta something zoo.

Sunday night Nemos reggea night. Great atmosphere and Jah music.

Monday - Day 5
Do what yuh want we doh party Monday.

Tuesday - Day 6

Right we done with dat. Now is straight to Movie Town that night for bar hopping and then to Attic for Latin Night.

Wenday - Day 7

Dont forget to go Sunday School at Bucoo


hottawarrior - win lose or draw
Izzy and TS have really great answers, just remember to be careful....dont go flashing your jewellery or money and you good to go.
If you start walking on a street and realise is only you and the guy sleeping on the corner...you probably would want to rethink walking down that road.
Stay in the populated areas and be careful. and you good. Dont be afraid to ask a question.
and make sure and try ALL......Most.......alright some of the food. Cause it have stuff I wont eat. lol.

A little guide to buying food....
1. If it have people waiting before the vendor reach then his food tasting good.
2. Pepper HOT!!! it hotter than Tobasco sauce and it hotter than chilli and stuff. so if you being adventurous always ask for slight or very slight. Except if you eating doubles....you dont want ANY pepper with that.
3. If there are no stray animals just waiting for piece of something to drop....think twice about buying it.
4. The best Grill food is found in La Romain (if you dont have someone who knows how to get there, then dont go) Even i dont know exactly where it is.
5. Try a Punch from Harry's on the Promenade and let me know how it was. lol.

Been to Trinidad many times and love it there. Yes the people are nice and friendly. However i always go with a group and never walk alone after dark. The places i have been told to avoid are Belmont, Leventille and never walk across the Savannah always walk around.

Be cautious and keep you common sense and you should have fun.


triniwondagirl
well TS and Izzy sed it all


Hmmmmmm
Trinidad is a really beautiful fun exciting place but to truely answer your question no Trinidad isn't exactly the safest place for women right now. There are really safe places and at the same time there are really dangerous places you just have to be careful.
