Barbados Island Tour with Lunch and Wildlife Sanctuary

EILEEN_R, Jun 2026

Interesting trip

The Flower Forest had a wonderful collection. The Pottery was interesting although items were expensive. I have never seen so many tortoises as we saw at the Wildlife sanctuary. W we're not impressed with the lunch. Far too much food for the middle of the day piled on a plate. Week's worth of carbs! Antone our driver was great

Highly recommend! 💛

We’re so happy we booked this tour while visiting Barbados! 🌴☀️ Everything was absolutely beautiful — from the breathtaking ocean views and charming local villages to the tropical garden filled with blooming flowers. After a long winter in Canada, seeing so much color and nature felt like pure joy for the eyes. 🌺 And the lunch… another level of happiness 😍 Such a lovely way to experience the island, its culture, and its warmth. Highly recommend! 💛

Great island tour!

Cuddy was an excellent tour guide! He gave us a lot of island history and took us to interesting places. There is some walking on uneven surfaces at the wildlife preserve, but it is manageable. We really enjoyed this tour.

Accommodating and enjoyable, though it could have been better.

They are very accommodating and will arrange to pick you up at most hotels and areas. Our driver and guide was very nice and informative.. in our case our tour fell on a bank holiday so one of the stops was closed and rather than replace it with a different stop they just gave us more time at one of the existing stops. It would’ve been nice to maybe have a different stop adding in. The places we visited were interesting and enjoyable.

Well worth the price.

There is a lot of driving involved but we had an excellent host who gave us all kinds of info about the island and also stopped for photo ops on our way to the wildlife sanctuary where we were greeted with a complimentary drink. We saw tons of monkeys in a very natural habitat where they're free to leave if the please. There was other wildlife as well. We left there and ended at the beach where we had complimentary chairs, umbrellas, and another free drink. It was well worth the price, and a great deal for everything you get.

Winston was our guide and did a great job sharing the history of Barbados, driving us to scenic viewpoints, and of course getting us to and from the monkey sanctuary and beach! We appreciated his patience and flexibility with one individual in our group who is less mobile and needed extra time to walk with a walker.

Excellent Tour and Good Stops

We had a fantastic day on our tour. The guide was knowledgeable, there were plenty of stops, and the stops were took us to different parts of the island. The wildlife reserve was the best and we really enjoyed that (and the offer rum punch or some drinks as part of the tour). Lunch was delicious and above average fare based on the others place we stopped. Overall a worthwhile experience. We highly recommend this tour.
