Turks & Caicos Vacaction: What to Know Before You Visit TCI

Correction: Cockburn Town on Grand Turk is the capital. Providenciales is the largest city. My apologies.

SOOOO AWESOMEEEE!!! 💖👏🏻💖👏🏻💖~ heading there in March!!! This video was SO HELPFUL!!! ~~~ 🤩

This was such an informative video! Thank you!!

More Numbers would have been nice.

Walter love your videos. Walter do you recommend taxis from the airport or a private shuttle ?

Thanks very much!we are thinking about going here for our honeymoon after all the wild fires in Maui.

Heading there next week for the first time. I have a day or so of dental CE, then it will be family time. My wife and I love relaxing and chill on the beach. Having said that my 18 and 12 yo daughters will be with us. Thanks for the heads up so we know what to expect.

Some people are hurt when seeing animals being chopped up. Conch

Thanks so much for the info in all these videos!!! Going next week and you’ve helped a lot!!

Can we dine at the resort restaurants in Grace Bay, if we're not a guest at the hotel? Planning on staying at an airbnb nearby, but the hotel restaurants look amazing!

We are going to the Osasis , how did you like it ?

Anybody been to TCI lately? Any issues with villa break-ins, armed robberies, murders,...that type of thing since November 2022? Heard that usually it is very safe but there were some issues last year.

Thank you very much for your kind information about island 🏝

Great video thanks

Great info and quite accurate! Thanks

Ruined my whole idea of going there, thank you!!

Awesome informative vid!

you're the best! thank youuu

yeah, us Caribbean islands our drivers are not biking friendly, even in Dutch Antilles Curaçao where I am from people rarely use bikes outside their yards or resorts, because biking is dangerous, only Dutch people dare to use bikes on the islands and even they who are used to riding bikes in their country are hesitant to do it on the islands, so do be careful if you still decide to ride bikes on Caribbean islands busy streets.

I was just there last month and loved my time there! Such a beautiful place 😍

Excellent video. Very informative. I go to resorts but when there, I like doing tours to see historical places and take in the culture. I may go to the beach once or twice. So I could only go here for a day or two just to see what the place looks like. It is probably nice for people who are into water sports and diving.

First thing that you need to know is that everything is overpriced and too expensive!

thank u mark

I really appreciate it Ay live in Dominican Republic how can I get over there tell me if somebody can help me just to visit ther

The hassle to get here is NOT worth it. Plenty of nice beaches elsewhere. too Expensive

just got back from there.
beer is about 3 dollars -5 dollars a can /bottle including local beer...typical meal started out at 18 dollars
we didn't use bug spray at all
taxi anywhere is always about 20---25 dollars a piece ( per person).
I did tipping American style... 5 here 10 there, the locals didn't seem to impressed
we stayed at an AirBnB on Middle caicos.. so ferry to prov was 60 per person round trip. ( next time we will just explorer Prov. Middle Caicos had nothing exciting._

Save money pay for the extra luggage and bring food...rice,bread, etc etc...chips...soda you get the point

would you say a car is needed to get around if we are mainly looking to relax, eat food and do one day of excursions? we are planning on staying in an airbnb in grace bay, would you say theres a lot of food within walking distance?

Great video!!

The Turks and Caicos Islands are not a former British colony, they are a current British Overseas Territory. Mess with the islands and you'll find yourselves staring down the Royal Navy.

Greetings from Montreal! We just booked Club Med Turkoise for mid April and we are really looking forward to it. You really did a great job of packing in the information. Will be watching your other T&C videos. Thanks!

covered it really well!!!!

Are there a lot of the lizards on the beach?! I’m super scared of them.

No iguanas for me

The opening of a conk shell reminds me of something... Can't put my finger on it

I need to know if turks beats Caicos

Everyone speaking of no night life were simply not interested. On my first trip there and we bumped into so much night life by recommendations from tour guides. Shisha lounge, 809 terrace, blu bar and so many more but we only went to these 3. On the same corner of 809 there were multiple places with so much music. 809 and shisha were such a good time. Felt like I was back home in NYC but it was nice open air places. We left at 1AM but the places probably close at 2 or 3. Which is more then enough considering how early we all get up in TCI the beaches can be exhausting no need to be out until 6am. Is it a party island, no. But it is a place where lively, local CARIBBEAN ppl live. Silly to think their wouldn’t be somewhere to drink, dance and smoke hookah when the sun goes down.

Thank u for this video it answered many of my questions I had but can u advise anything regarding vaccination?

Great insight Wolter! Absolutely beautiful place, especially Grace Bay area on Providenciales. Unfortunately, great numbers of Haitians land on the shores of Turks and Caicos and Provo regularly, in fact, nearly 1,000 in the first 4 months of 2021. Crime has been ramping up for years. Mainly burglaries and theft, but threats and robbery by machete and gun crimes are way up. I've been twice, loved it, but I did felt anxiety, especially if the sun was setting. It is definitely not getting any better there. Grace Bay is one of the safest areas, being a tourism destination and somewhat protected, but definitely not immune to crime... like so much of this planet. Happy travels!

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I lived in Turks for 12 years working front desk/concierge and I can agree with this video. I would discourage drinking the water however, its great to prepare meals however please drink bottled water.

What to know before you visit? Don't. Until they lift their draconian Covid 19 restrictions

Are the resorts or hotels cartel owned? Have there been any missing persons reported in the last year?

TCI is beautiful but overpriced and hard to find any good food

Art Provo Providenciales Providenciales 5 fingers mile long where it's located on the island the current is going sideways to the beach realflow can you can just sit there and float and see every single the whole ways to perfect perfect snorkeling diving number one I was very lucky it was the very newest one nineteen eighty-six and it just open that club Club Med turkoise was to cut what they called it the Providenciales was the island

Ummm sir Providenciales is not the Capital of the Turks & Caicos Islands, it Grand Turk the Nation’s Capital.

Do u need a visato visit

Hi thanks for the video do you know if the island is affected by sargassun or mass seaweed in summer just like the rest of the Caribbean?

What do you mean near kind of Haiti, Hispaniola? That was low-key racist just to let you know

Love your electrical knowledge, 😆
