What To Expect

In Barbados, we love craft beer and also great places to drink craft beer which is why at Dreadhop, they built a rustic, industrial style tap room with plenty of space to enjoy the beers they work so hard to create. The DreadHop Brewing tap room is located right inside the brewery. Enjoy the sweet aroma of freshly brewed wort, hops and malt while you sip the freshest beer in Barbados.

Oistins Fish Fry

Oistins is also widely popular as a result of the Oistins Fish Festival. An annual, week-long held in April each year, dedicated to celebrating the culture of the fishing village, the talents of the fisherfolk and their impact on Barbadian culture. This festival is a great opportunity to partake in some of the island's best Bajan cuisine as well as support the local vendors, farmers and artisans. There are many vendors to choose from and vendors offer a variety of fish steaks of many kinds, ( mahi-mahi, tuna, snapper, barracuda, and sometimes lobster), along with complimentary sides and salads. Oistins is perfect for the entire family or groups of friends! Head out to have an affordable, delicious meal while enjoying the local ambience of the market. Conversely, if you prefer a more quiet experience, visit Bay Gardens on weekdays when there is less foot traffic. In Oistins, there’s something for everyone.

Unfortunately we did not have Jamar for our trip. I was excited to do this having read all the 5 star reviews. However our driver did not seem to know what the trip involved. We were picked up in a van type vechicle which was not particularly comfortable. We went to the brewery- which was a lovely idea but again we were not given any background information. We didn’t really learn much about Barbados or the Friday fish fry on this tour to be honest. I was disappointed that no food was included at Oistins and I do think for the price it would have been nice to be able to ‘skip’ the queue in one of the more ‘famous’ restaurants. When we went to st Lawrence gap - our guild didn’t seem to know what to do with us and we didn’t even get a drink because the bar we ‘chose’ to go to had already closed. We decided to end the tour then and go back to our hotel. I feel that our driver had not really been given training for this trip. However he was polite and punctual- the van was clean - just not what we expected for a private trip. I was disappointed with this trip and so cannot recommend- we decided to do other trips on the island with a taxi from our hotel- which was much cheaper!!

My dad and I had an amazing time with Ezra! The variety of things that were planned (brewery, the fry, archery) were amazing and it was nice that Ezra checked in regularly with us and catered aspects of the evening to us (my dad had a great time at a reggae bar). Highly recommend!
A fantastic night in Barbados

This tour was SO much fun! We’d never be able to get this kind of feel for local nightlife if we hadn’t taken this tour. Jamar was a great tour guide —knowledgeable, funny and fun to be with! Such a fantastic addition to our trip!

Jamar took us to a favorite vendor at Oistins, and we had an amazing meal. We also hit some of his favorite local spots, each great in a different way. Jamar is super friendly and knowledgeable about the island, personable, and we'd definitely hang out if we were local.
Excellent tour guide and service (Jamar)

I went to Barbados for the first time during my birthday and my guide Jamar was excellent!!! He showed us different spots around the island, gave us some history and some recommendations of places to try. His personality and vibe was on point . My boyfriend and I enjoyed him and would recommend Jamar any time!

Jared was AWESOME!!! He pretty much allowed us to "bar hop" and also proposed optional activities like archery for our anniversary date night. This tour gives you a "personal driver," who is local and knows the island well. We would DEFINITELY book again.
Great experience and great tour guide

This was a great experience and great tour. Jamar was great to follow during Oistins fish fry. There is a good chance my wife and I would have been lost with our him. The food and experience was very authentic and good. I would highly recommend Jamar and taking this tour.

Great trip with Jamar. He knew all the spots and we felt at ease for this experience. One of the highlights of our trip. And by far the best food we ate the entire trip. Very low key and locals vibe.
Great Friday Night
