Today is the first ODI of the series. Jos Buttler will be looking to hit the ground running with a strong start, though the West Indies have a good ODI record at this ground in recent years.
After a leisurely morning, jump onboard the match-day transfer to the stadium. The game will likely run into the evening, after which the coach will return you to your hotel.
Make the most of two full days at leisure in Antigua. There is no doubt that some of this time should be spent on the beach - Dickenson Bay and Ffryes Beach are two of the most popular among visitors.
Nelson's Dockyard is a great place to explore Antigua's history. Named after the British Admiral - it's a UNESCO-listed site and there are plenty of bars and restaurants alongside the museum.
After a few days of relaxation, the second ODI is upon us. Again, jump onboard the match-day transfer to the stadium. The game will likely run into the evening, after which the coach will return you to your hotel.
The second ODI will be an opportunity for the loser of the first match to drag themselves back into the series ahead of the final ODI in Barbados. The innings record for an ODI at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium is 322 - well within reach of this strong England squad.
Enjoy a final day in Antigua before we depart for Barbados tomorrow.
Shirley Heights is one of the most picturesque spots on the island. The retired military lookout offers incredible views of both the English and Falmouth Harbours. Live music, rum punch, and local food such as saltfish and fungi, can often be enjoyed from here.
This morning, check-out of your hotel and transfer to the airport for your flight to Barbados. On arrival, transfer to your hotel for a five night stay on a bed and breakfast basis.
Barbados truly does have something for everyone. Pristine beaches, idyllic scenery and fantastic food. In fact, tonight there is the famous Fish Fry at Oistins which is hugely popular among locals and visitors alike and is the perfect opportunity to enjoy the famous Bajan cuisine and some local music.
After a leisurely morning exploring the island as you wish, we will transfer to the famous Kensington Oval for the third ODI. The coach will transfer us back to the hotel after the game, which will likely finish in the evening.
The Kensington Oval is a real spectacle when England are in town, and the pitch here has resulted in some mammoth totals in recent years. Expect catches in the stands!
Enjoy two days at leisure in Barbados. Some may choose to relax and make the most of the white sandy beaches, while others may prefer to explore the island a little more. Previous Howzat travellers have enjoyed a taste of history at the Mount Gay Rum distillery.
In the evenings, experience the local nightlife on the St. Lawrence Gap. 'The Gap' is famous for the restaurants and bars that line the street - serving rum punch and macaroni pie.
Enjoy your morning at leisure before jumping on-board the transfer to the stadium for the first T20 of five. The coach will transfer us back to the hotel after the game, which will likely finish in the evening.
Both teams will likely alter their sides today, bringing in specialist T20 players who have honed their skills in the franchise leagues across the world. West Indies set the T20 innings record at the Kensington Oval last year, amassing 224/5 at a run rate of 11.2 - so a high-scoring game could be on the cards.
Check-out of your hotel this morning and transfer with the group to the airport for your flight to Grenada.
On arrival, we will transfer to the hotel for a four night stay on a bed and breakfast basis.
Often referred to as the 'Spice Island', Grenada offers unspoilt rainforest, an abundance of wildlife and more Caribbean culinary delights.
Make the most of your morning in Grenada at leisure. Jump on-board the transfer to the stadium for the second T20 of the series. The coach will transfer us back to the hotel after the game, which will likely finish in the evening.
The National Cricket Ground in Grenada is stunning, with a rainforest backdrop and a unique Caribbean atmosphere.
England will be looking to take advantage of the West Indies poor record here in international T20's.
This day at leisure in between matches is the perfect opportunity to explore all that Grenada has to offer. One of the island's biggest exports is various spices, and there is a popular market in St. George's selling a multitude of locally grown spices - a perfect gift to bring home.
There are also plenty of cocoa farms on the island which are well worth the visit to learn more about chocolate production.
Perhaps embrace the lush rainforests with a trip to Grand Etang National Park, home to a wide range of flora and fauna including Mona monkeys, or unwind on the sherbet-white sands at Grand Anse Beach.
Today, the third T20 takes place. Jump on the transfer to the stadium - the coach will transfer us back to the hotel after the game, which will likely finish in the evening.
The two matches in Grenada will be pivotal in the series and both sides will want to head to Trinidad with the momentum.
Check out of your hotel this morning and transfer to the airport for your flight home.
On arrival in the UK, say your goodbyes to the group and make your own onward travel arrangements.

St. James' Club in Antigua is an unpretentious all-inclusive resort, set on a secluded peninsula 6km from the popular English Harbour.

Just a few steps away from the beautiful white sand, the Hilton Barbados offers direct access to two beaches as well as its infinity pool. The rooms are contemporary, and large parts of the hotel have stunning views over the Caribbean Sea.

Located next to Grenada's most popular beach, Grand Anse, this upscale resort offers a complete Caribbean experience with four island-themed restaurants on-site.
