Itinerary

About this tour, from the operator

There’s no better way to explore the beauty and wonders of Barbados than with a walking tour through the City of Bridgetown which is listed on the UNESCO World Heritage List and is one of the few World Heritage Sites in the Caribbean. Bridgetown Barbados is full of interesting history that dates back to 400 years, the culture, people, food, and amazing sights. See our fantastic attractions like the Barbados Parliament Buildings, the Screw Dock, and walk the boardwalk on the site where Africans persons were bought from the Atlantic Ocean to be enslaved.
