5.00Chris was our driver and guide for the day, We had a fabulous day exploring Barbados with Chris offering local knowledge and expertise. She listened to our ideas and built a day around them. Totally professional experience and wouldn't hesitate to recommended her.

5.00Orlando did a tremendous job of showing us the history and sights of the island. Very knowledgeable and professional. You shouldn’t visit the island without taking this tour.
Perfect day in Barbados

5.00Can customize to suit your interests. We spent a great day touring Barbados with Orlando. We had 3 places we wanted to see on the island, and this was a way to fit them all in. We saw Harrison’s Cave, the Flower Forest botanical gardens and the green monkeys, arriving just on time for their feeding. Orlando was a great guide, personable and a safe driver. He even fit in a quick lunch stop at our request. We’d highly recommend a day with him.
Great Excursion Day

5.00Orlando was a well-informed and great tour operator. He transported us to the destinations that we had decided on and also had many suggestions. We found great little eating spots on the way and an awesome bakery. He informed us about some of the history of Barbados and just was a very pleasant tour guide to converse with as we drove safely and efficiently. This was the most efficient way to get around Barbados without any wasted or idle time. We will definitely use him again when visiting Barbados.
Wonderful day trip around the island. Our driver Chris was amazing!

You are better off renting a car or simply going with a different company

1.00We booked this particular private tour since we were staying on the east side of the island as the other offering by this same tour company only included pickups from the West and South of the island. We ended up paying more money for less as this offering does not include lunch and other amenities. As to our chief complaint - there was no actual guide. This is a glorified transportation service. We didn't need a driver (we made it explicitly clear we had rented a car), we needed a knowledgeable tour guide who would be engaging and talk about the island's history, culture, and more. Instead we got a driver that barely engaged and only spoke when we asked questions (and even then). Come on guys - if you are in the tourism industry you need to be more engaging especially if you are giving TOURS. Completely disappointing experience. Reader: We are not alone with these complaint, check out other reviews that have complaints about this same issue and likely the same female driver. I can only call her a driver because she was definitely not a tour guide. I am sorry to say but you you would do well to invest in an actual tour guide or train your drivers better.
Reviews were right, JUST GO

5.00Chrissy was amazing! It was easy to book and we found the tour station right at the cruise port! She made us comfortable from the start and made sure the kids were having a good time too. She asked us if we wanted to do anything special and told her to take us to where she thought was best! She brought us all over the islands and we of course did the monkey feeding and Harrison Caves. She was funny and knowledgeable! She made sure she got our swimming in after requesting it. I loved her so much and she got us back in plenty of time to get back on the ship. Request her if you are going to do this tour! Thanks again Chrissy!!❤️❤️

5.00We booked two days of this in order to see the entire island. Today we went to Animal Flower Cave, St. Nicholas Abbey, Wild Life Reserve and Bathsheba Beach. All beautiful sites and watching the monkeys was fun. Our driver/tour guide Lisa was very friendly and fun.
Memorable trip, amazing guide Orlando

5.00This was an excellent excursion for our group of 10 in visiting Barbados while in port on a family Christmas cruise. Booking and communication was very easy prior to our excursion and it was easy to find the Beautiful Barbados team when we got to port. We were promptly met by our excellent guide, Stephen, who was so accommodating. He asked what things we wanted to do/places we wanted to see right away and we got started with our tour. The van was very nice and comfortable and had air conditioning. Stephen answered our questions and was an excellent guide giving us lots of info as we traveled through the different areas of the island. He pointed out Rhianna's childhood home as well as her current home. He had a great personality and took excellent care of our group. We went to the Barbados Wildlife Reserve which was a highlight for many of our group, as we got to see monkeys at their feeding time and interacting with each other right beside us. We also saw many other animals, many roaming freely which was so unique. On our way to the wildlife reserve, Stephen stopped at a very beautiful overlook at Cherry Tree Hill where we got some pictures of our group. After a great visit at the Wildlife Reserve, we headed to another location on our wish list--the beach at Carlisle Bay. The water was absolutely amazing and we had a wonderful time before heading back to the ship. If you have a large group who wants to spend time together like we did and do a few different things of your choice while visiting, I highly recommend Stephen and the Beautiful Barbados team. We felt very accommodated and well cared for and ended our time extremely satisfied with this excursion. Many of our group left Barbados with the desire to return again someday. What a great day thanks to a fantastic excursion!
