Experience Beautiful Barbados

Aside from Barbados' beautiful Caribbean vibe, British influence plays a huge role in the island's unique culture. Also known as "Little England," sites such as Bridgetown, St. Nicholas Abbey, St. Ann's Garrison (classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site), and Hunte's Gardens blend English influence with island charm. If you want to do some sightseeing while learning about this unique cultural blend, our Barbados walking tours are perfect for you. Fancy yourself more of a foodie than a scholar? Our Oistins Fish Lover's Food Tour is an absolute must for seafood lovers. Or get the best of both worlds and try our Food and Heritage Tour. There's always something for everybody.

Of course, many people travel to Barbados for its white sand beaches and turquoise waters teeming with marine life. Not to mention all the abundant snorkeling and scuba diving opportunities. The east coast, in particular, offers some of the best beaches and scenic views. Unlike the west coast, much of the land along the east coastline is protected, so there's little to no major development and more rugged, unspoiled beauty. You're guaranteed to see all sorts of creatures, from the common green monkey to exotic tropical fish.

We offer sightseeing shore excursions for nature and water sports enthusiasts of all ages, from private tours to kayaking. Get up close and personal with sea turtles on a glass bottom boat tour of Carlisle Bay, or admire the stalagmites of Harrison's Cave, a subterranean world of natural wonders. For more tropical delights, the Barbados Wildlife Reserve and Flower Forest Botanical Gardens deliver breathtaking natural beauty. But for more fun and entertainment, the Mount Gay Rum distillery offers rum tasting for a true island tour experience.
