Caribbean Meet the Influencers with Trending Travel ✨🌴
Last week, we whisked influencers to the Caribbean with Aures London's incredible tech—270° screens, “Underwater Love” scent, and haptic belts for a truly immersive experience!
We kicked off with Mount Gay Rum Punch from Barbados and authentic French Caribbean bites from Bokit'La's food truck. The evening highlighted “Storytelling over Presentation,” culminating in a creative Graffiti experience in the Banksy tunnel, where influencers designed tote bags with tropical stencils and partner logos.
A big thank you to St. Kitts Tourism UK for offering a spot on their next influencer trip—congratulations to Kathryn Burn, finalist of the BBC Apprentice for winning this exciting trip!
