Don’t overplan.
The essentials to build a calm, real trip — plus the shortcuts if you want it done for you.
Choose your path
Not here to “do” the island. Here to feel it — without wasting time. Pick what matches your trip and I’ll point you to the right essentials.
❋ First time on the island
Read this first: how to choose where to stay + how to split Grande-Terre / Basse-Terre.
Start Smart (Guides)
❋ I have 3–5 days
A short trip that still feels real: one base, zero backtracking, no “top 10” marathon.
Grab the 3–5 day plan
❋ I have 7–10 days
Balanced pace, real variety: beach, forest, food, culture — with breathing room built in.

❋ I hate planning
Tell me your vibe + budget + pace.
I’ll design it — clean, realistic, and you-proof.
Design my trip
❋ I want to support local + move respectfully
The unsexy stuff that matters: etiquette, tipping, markets, what to ask — and what to never do.
Culture & Context (start here)
❋ Traveling queer / solo / want low-noise spots
Quiet picks + “how to move” notes so you can feel safe, unbothered, and not on display.

3 rules that change everything
Don’t try to “do” the island. Let it meet you.
Base matters more than buckets. Choose where you sleep wisely.
Respect > aesthetic. Ask, tip, slow down.
