Airdate: Simon Reeve’s Caribbean

Simon Reeve has a new 3 part travel series, Simon Reeve’s Caribbean.

In this series he travels through Haiti, Barbados, Venezuela, St Vincent to Honduras.

Intrepid journalist Simon Reeve is off on a whole new adventure, embarking on a journey around the Caribbean Sea, home to some of the most exotic and enticing locations on Earth.

Home to thousands of islands and a tropical mainland coast, the region is crammed full of history, conflict, culture, adventure, wildlife, glamour and colourful characters, giving Simon endless opportunities to explore.

In his trademark engaging style, he seeks out the people making their lives in these islands and coasts, discovers how things are changing, and highlights the huge variety and richness of this stunning part of the world.

Episode One:
Simon begins his journey around the Caribbean on the island of Hispaniola and its two very different countries – the Dominican Republic, a tourist hotspot, and Haiti, the poorest country in the western hemisphere. He ends this first leg on Puerto Rico, a Caribbean island that is practically America’s 51st state.
