Because the Barbados pier is used for both cruise ships and cargo, you will most likely take a shuttle bus to the cruise terminal. On exiting the terminal you will arrive at the gate departure area. Our Excursions depart from Gate 1. A representative from Beautiful Barbados Tours & Excursions will meet you in this area. He or she will be holding a Beautiful Barbados Tours & Excursions sign and will direct you to your tour vehicle. We can't stress enough the importance of being on time for all trips.
Cherry Tree Hill, Caribbean Approximately 850 feet above sea-level, this spot offers an excellent view of the "Scotland District" which covers the parish of St.Andrew and is named after the Patron Saint of Scotland.
It is believed that the name "Cherry Tree Hill" originated from the large number of cherry trees which once existed at this location.
Today the road is lined with mahogany trees, which were introduced into Barbados after the Treaty of Paris in 1763. As you descend the hill the mahogany trees give way to swaying sugar cane. 15 minutes
Morgan Lewis Mill, Caribbean Morgan Lewis Windmill is located in the scenic hills of St. Andrew in Barbados and commands a most commanding view of the phenomenal east coast. Built in 1727, this typical wind-driven mill once crushed sugarcane to produce juice during the 18th and 19th centuries. Morgan Lewis Windmill stopped its operation in 1947 and was subsequently handed over to the Barbados National Trust for preservation as a museum. Morgan Lewis Windmill is among the World Monuments Fund list of 100 Most Endangered Sites in the World.
Bathsheba Beach, Bathsheba, Caribbean Legend has it that Bathsheba, wife of King David, bathed in milk to keep her skin beautiful and soft. Legend also says that the surf covered white waters of Bathsheba, Barbados rich in minerals and life is said to resemble Bathsheba's bath in both appearance health giving value. 25 minutes
St. John's Church, Union Hall, Caribbean Built in 1846 to replace the church that was destroyed by the Great Hurricane of 1831, this classic Gothic church is solid and soaring. The church grounds are serene and the cliff-edge site commands a sweeping view of the picturesque east coast. A noteworthy statue and funerary plaques add to the interest, and a small guidebook gives you details. In the churchyard rests Ferdinando Paleologus, a descendant of Emperor Constantine the Great, whose family was driven from the throne in Constantinople by the Turks. Ferdinando died here in 1678, after being a resident for over 20 years. Though always English, Barbados has attracted multinationals for quite some time. 25 minutes
Gun Hill Signal Station, Caribbean Gun Hill is the finest of a series of signal stations built in 1818. These stations sighted ships approaching Barbados and signaled to each other, advising of the type of vessel and whether if was a friend or foe! In case of attack, the forts and soldiers could be quickly readied to defend the island. In the signal tower a chart shows just what detailed information could be relayed with the use of a few flags. The signal stations were also used to warn of slave rebellions on the island.
Barbados Garrison, Bridgetown, Caribbean The location is the Historic Garrison Savannah, close to the capital, Bridgetown. The Garrison Savannah has been the home of horse racing in Barbados since 1845. The officers of the British Regiment, who were stationed in Barbados, used what was then the parade ground to match their horses in races and the wealthy merchants and planters later joined them.
15 minutes
Carlisle Bay, Bridgetown, Caribbean Carlisle Bay is a nice tranquil beach located just on the outskirts of Bridgetown, where the focal point is the bobbing boats moored in the bay. It is a vast area of mostly placid and clear waters with no undertow, and is excellent for photos, snorkeling and Scuba diving, while boasting the most visited dive sites in Barbados. We will visit Carlisle bay where you will be greeted with a welcome drink and use of a beach lounger and shared umbrella is included whilst you enjoy some time at the beach

The driver/tour guide was very informative and knowledgeable about the country. The stops were not that interesting to me, except for of the mushroom rocks.
The roads were horrendous and bumpy. However, the beach was fabulous, the highlight of our day. The day was hot and no rain. It encourage us to return to Barbados.

Dunstin was our tour guide and did a great job driving and explaining the sights and history of the island. We made all the stops listed in the tour description (Cherry Tree Hill, Morgan Lewis Windmill, Bathsheba, The Garrison Savannah and Carlisle Bay). We didn't make the stop at St Johns due to a downpour. It was a great overview of the island and our guide made sure we were informed and comfortable. I think all the sights were fantastic and loved learning about the island. I would recommend this tour if you would like an overview of the island.
