Located in the Southern Caribbean, Bridgetown is the great little gem of Barbados, sometimes referred to as “Little England.” Unlike many other Caribbean islands that went from the possession of colonial hand to colonial hand, Barbados has always fallen under the Union Jack. British influence can be seen in the Anglican churches and in the driving on the wrong side of the road; however, the island’s forty years of independence has seen it develop a distinctly Caribbean culture.

How to Get to Bridgetown

The Bridgetown Port is located a five minute taxi ride from downtown Bridgetown, which is Barbados’s capital city. However, this is an island that is seen at its best in independent exploration, and its recommended that, if you have the time, you rent a car to see the unspoiled and less developed parts of the island.

One Day on Barbados

Barbados boasts lush tropical foliage and spectacular vistas. Take the Natural Wonders and Harrison’s Caves tour to enjoy the pristine beauty and serenity that Barbados has to offer. The tour shows breathtaking vistas, perfect for photo opportunities. Or take the Coastal Sightseeing tour, which will take you past sprawling white-sand beaches and through picturesque coastal towns.

Be on the more adventurous side and take an underwater sea adventure with the Atlantis Submarine Expedition! Step aboard a real submarine, during which you’ll get to explore shipwrecks and colorful ocean life from a completely unique perspective.

And if you’re the type who has to have it all, the Barbados in a Day tour squeezes in visits to all of the top sites on the island, including a trek through the Wildlife Reserve and a snorkeling shipwreck adventure.

Port Information

Many major cruise lines dock at Bridgeport, including Royal Caribbean, Carnival, Celebrity, and Norwegian. The locals all speak English (though perhaps with a British-influenced twang and vernacular), and the American dollar is widely accepted.

Doing what: Barbados Shore Excursion: Coastal Sightseeing Tour

Our tour was great. Our guide, Chris, was well informed, pleasant and willing to take us to places not necessarily on the planned tour. For example, we went to a fish market to see a flying fish and to a grocery store to purchase local hot sauce. We were especially impressed with the beauty of the north end watching the huge waves smash into large rock formations. There was only four in our group and the Viator's individual attention scored again! C and S

Doing what: Barbados Shore Excursion: Natural Wonders and Harrison's Cave Tour

Our guide was outstanding which helped to make a great excursion even better. We enjoyed all three major stops plus the wealth of information our guide provided along the way. We highly recommend this tour and were very glad we booked this multi stop excursion instead of the single stop cave tour offered on our cruise ship.

We had a wonderful time. We did everything that was promised. Little bit of confusion about who we were. Next time just ask for the paperwork. Thank you Jamal. You did a great job.
