5.00Our driver was Ahmed (?). He was incredibly knowledgeable about the island, having lived there his entire life. He took us to all of the scenic places that we requested, and some that he thought would be of interest. Even as a half day excursion, it was a pretty full day, so I would not recommend much more than 4–5 hours.
Much better tour than what the cruises offer

5.00Very knowledgeable guide/driver and we were given an excellent varied tour of the island as we didn’t have a pre- planned itinerary. It included an amazing trip to Harrison’s cave, island view points, local sites including Rihanna’s homes both old and new.
Great tour!

5.00Ahmed is a fantastic guide! He took us on a tour of the interior and the East Coast, showing us beautiful highlights and hidden gems. He is incredibly knowledgeable and provided great commentary throughout the day. He also knows exactly where to go for the best local food—his lunch recommendation was perfect. 10/10 experience!

4.00This was an excellent way to get to know more about the island. A great option if you are new to Barbados. A very informative guide (Ahmed), and a pleasant afternoon getting to see a number of things that we would never have found on our own
Great Way To See Barbados

5.00This was a great way to see the Barbados that’s outside Bridgetown and the beach hotels. Our guide Ahmed was really polite and very helpful and had in depth knowledge of the whole island. The stops were really good. Harrison’s Cave is spectacular and really enjoyed seeing it…..though we must say that even though we’d booked tickets in advance, we found their organisation and communication very poor. Ahmed helped stop us being overcharged and waited patiently for us to complete the delayed tour. We would definitely recommend using this tour to tailor make your own itinerary to see the rest of Barbados.
Amazing island tour with Ahmed
