Treasures of Barbados
Tour Description
The whole Island of Barbados is a treasure. From its formation to its history, culture, cuisine & craft every bit of it is worthy of being called a treasure. Where else can you find stories of cannibals, pirates, black widows, presidents & witchcraft? There may be a few but I assure you none like Barbados. There are a handful of places that for some stand out more than others and in this tour we will share them with you. On this tour you will visit Harrison's Cave a limestone cave that is called the 8th wonder of the world. At the cave you will board electric trams and travel through the winding tunnels viewing majestic caverns and the stalactites and stalagmites which have been growing in them for many centuries. Another special feature of the caves is its streams, waterfalls and pools. Harrison's cave is guaranteed to be an experience of a lifetime. A visit to Barbados will not be complete without a stop at Bathsheba on the East Coast, famous for its breathtaking beauty and pounding surf. Our route then takes us past Morgan Lewis Windmill and Cherry Tree Hill. The windmill is on the top 100 endangered historical sites in the world the Windmill is also one of only 2 windmills of this type left standing in the Caribbean. Then we make our way up to Cherry Tree Hill for its spectacular views and onto St Nicholas Abbey. St Nicholas Abbey can be correctly categorized a historical treasure of Barbados. This Sugar Plantation Great house is a 17th century Jacobean Mansion one of only three in this side of the world. There is also an on-site Rum Distillery and a working steam engine that crushes the cane during harvest season.
