Like a Barbadian rum punch, the island is a delicate balance of diverse flavors: from the bustling streets of its capital, Bridgetown, to the luxury resorts of its Caribbean coast, from the cliffs and caves of the north to the wild Atlantic beaches of the east, and from the sugar plantations and unspoiled forests of the island’s interior. Our guide goes beyond the ordinary, giving you an intimate perspective on Barbados. The words “Cou cou” and “Crop Over” will no longer hold any secrets for you. Explore historic landmarks, taste flying fish, and immerse yourself in the island’s rich cultural diversity.
