Cruise Martinique – Guadelupe, 11 days

      The capital, Fort-de-France, celebrates every aspect of French culture with style and panache, from the excellence of its cuisine to the chic sophistication of its fine resorts and hotels. Shops, art galleries, theatres and museums all pay homage to its French heritage, and you can watch boules being played in the squares while people sit and chat outside cafés.
