About Barbados

Barbados is truly a jewel in the Caribbean, with sun kissed beautiful unspoiled beaches, white sands and crystal blue water, together with year round sunshine.

The island is full of dramatic changes, romantic west coast, lively south coast with lots of nightlife and the rugged east coast, which is on the Atlantic Ocean.

Bridgetown, the capital of Barbados is a bustling city with duty free shopping, specializing in diamonds and emeralds.

Enjoy international cricket or horse racing visit a plantation house or join the revelers for "Crop Over" in July-August.

Barbadians (or Bajans as they are usually known) are justifiably proud of their island and take great delight in showing you their tropical paradise.

Lyn has travelled extensively throughout the Caribbean, including living in Barbados for some time, which has enabled her to have thorough local and tourist knowledge.

Client Comments

We've just arrived back home today after our holiday in Barbados and I wanted to thank you for arranging a wonderful holiday for us. Your choice of the Coconut Court hotel was ideal. It's location was brilliant for those of us who were running, as the finish line was only a short distance away at Bay Street Esplanade. I ran the half marathon with my friend and we ran into the sea after we crossed the finish line. You wouldn't want to do that in England after a race in case of hypothermia!

Out of the sixteen people in our group who competed in the various races we had five prizes winners in their respective age categories. Not bad! In fact the commentator at the price ceremony noticed that there were a lot from Huddersfield in the winners and he said 'They must have shut Huddersfield down for the day'. The rest of our group were out on the course as supporters.

Everyone thought the hotel was a great choice and most of us upgraded to the fully inclusive or half board options. Some of the others chose to visit the various restaurants in St Lawrence Gap.

The staff were very friendly and its location on the beach was brilliant.

The flights to Barbados and back on Virgin were fine too. In fact we arrived in England an hour earlier than planned on the return journey.

We had a trip to the races at the Garrison Savannah. Didn't win though.

Anyway enough from me, I could go on all day about how much we enjoyed our trip and I am sure I am going to bore people to death with details of our holiday. But once again thank you for arranging a superb holiday.
All the best Wendy

We have returned from our cruise to the Southern Caribbean. Thanks to David we had a wonderful tour of Barbados. He took us to all the sights that we had requested and then some. David was very knowledgeable and stopped at scenic vistas to enable us to take photographs. We stopped at a lovely restaurant overlooking the rugged east coast for a cool drink. Larry really enjoyed the local beer! Thanks again for arranging this fabulous tour of Barbados for us. We will certainly pass along your name and email address to anyone interested in touring Barbados with a friendly and knowledgeable guide. Barbara and Larry
