We had a wonderful four-hour tour with Susan! She was a fantastic driver and host—kind, funny, and full of interesting stories about the island’s history. She went out of her way to stop for the local foods and fruits we wanted to try, making the experience extra special. We enjoyed amazing views and felt so well taken care of. Thank you, Susan, for such a memorable day! We highly recommend touring with her.

Great day!!

We love to do day activities on vacation and this one did not disappoint. Transportation was prompt, we had plenty of time to snorkel and free swim. Everything was very relaxed, the service was wonderful and the lunch was so good! Not just a hoagie in a bag, but a full plate of a home-cooked meal. Highly recommend.!!

Another awsome trip!

This our second cruise with El Tigre (previously 2 years ago) and would gladly return again. The trip is very well organised and fantastic value for money. We were picked up from our villa and despite some initial confusion about our location, the communication was great and we were soon on board of our catamaran. The crew were friendly, attentive and looked after us. The food was wonderful and free drinks were flowing. We had fantastic snorkelling conditions, saw lots of beautiful fish (including puffer fish) and 2 turtles. The atmosphere was relaxed and the group size was small. 10 out of 10. Highly recommend.

Beautiful Barbados

This is a great trip if you are stretched for time or have children (like us) who don't want to spend too long on a bus missing out on pool action as it lasts for just the morning and you can be back in time for lunch. It was lovely to see some different parts of the island and the varying landscapes. The view from Cherry Tree Hill is stunning and gives you a very different perspective of Barbados. Our driver/guide was great and was very knowlegeable about all the sites we visited. We got to spend between 5-15 mins at the different spots and there are toilet facilities at a couple of the sites.

Fun With Safety In Mind.

Captain and the crew ran a tight ship. They very informative, knowledgeable and entertaining. They were so engaging and hospitable. The crew made us so relaxed, we chatted and laughed with other guests. By the time we left the boat we were family. Thanks for such a memorable time. ❤️

Wonderful outing

We had a lovely time on the railway. The conductor was very knowledgeable providing history and information about the beautiful landscape. A special shout out to Michelle and Jesenta who were absolutely amazing and welcoming. After a late arrival they were still able to accommodate us. They saved the day.

Start your holiday the easy way

Grantley Adams is only a small airport but processes a lot of visitors. You may be lucky and be the first plane in but, if not, you can find yourself at the back of a very long queue for passport control. As we got towards the arrivals hall we were met by the Viator rep holding a board to greet us. She took us to one side and we were through in seconds (just make sure that you have done your immigration form in advance) and waiting for our luggage. Our luggage was reasonably quick but this can, again, be dependent on the number of planes arriving. We were then fast tracked through the Customs area whilst Viator contacted our transfer driver to ensure that he was waiting by the front door as we exited. As a result of the service we were having a cold drink at our resort one hour after landing - an easy way to start our holiday!

2 Hours Turtle Feeding, Shipwreck & Reef Snorkeling Tour Barbados

Ian_M, May 2026

Amazing experience and almost private

Great experience, the captain went to multiple locations to ensure we got to see/swim with turtles. We went with our family of 4, and there was another small group of 3 with us. 9 people total, including the guide and captain, made the trip feel almost private! One of the few snorkeling options that doesn't require a life vest unless needed. The only downside was that we did not get much time at the shipwreck/coral due to our longer swim with the turtles once we found them. Overall a 10/10 experience that I would book again when in Barbados!
