The British Virgin Islands are located about 50 miles east of Puerto Rico, and are adjacent to the U.S. Virgin Islands. About 60 islands comprise this archipelago, only 16 of which are inhabited. The largest island, Tortola (Spanish for turtle dove), houses about 75 percent of the population. The capital of the BVI, Road Town, is located on Tortola.
After Tortola, the next largest island is Anegada, followed by Virgin Gorda, and then Jost Van Dyke. The total population of the BVI is under 25, 000 people.
The island terrain is born from volcanic origins, and thus is generally rugged and hilly. Most areas are still natural and uncultivated, much with a tropical, woodsy cover and an abundance of tropical flora. The sapphire blue of the ocean against the emerald green backdrop of the islands offers a true beach lovers paradise with its white, sandy beaches.
Friendly and professional interactions. Answered my questions and followed up on initial contact.

Adventure Life has been an extraordinary travel resource for us over the years and today was no exception. Our River Cruise booking was handled by Jess (who has been our personal trip planner for several years) the same day as our inquiry. Suggestions were given for cabin choice and pre-trip options (that were not shown on the cruise line's website) like airport transfers and prepaid gratuities. Trip insurance recommendations followed and we were assigned a travel co-ordinator till the end of the tour. All we have to do is show up! Great service from friendly folks.

Our travel was flawless! The rider pickup (airport, hotel, ship) was seamless. Jane's recommendation for Emerald Cruise Sakara was everything I wanted but the experience was soooo much more. Adventure Life took care of each and every detail and this was the easiest of all my travels.
