Follow Prince Harry’s example by enjoying a holiday to the islands of the Caribbean. The prince will make an official visit to the Caribbean in November and December 2016, visiting islands which are part of the Commonwealth. The Royal Tour will begin in Antigua and Barbuda, where the nation will be celebrating 35 years of independence. From here Prince Harry will be making a number of day trips to nearby countries including St Kitts & Nevis, St Lucia, St Vincent & The Grenadines and Grenada, before continuing to Barbados, which is celebrating its 50th year of independence from Great Britain.
