Definitely worth doing while in Barbados - My husband and I joined the walking tour and Karen was our guide. She was excellent and genuine. I really felt like her interest and excitement was authentic and it made us feel excited as well. It’s a nice balance of history and sightseeing.

Would recommend! - We had a great tour led by the lovely Karen. The tour showed us parts of the town you might miss, and she talked us through the history, which was fascinating. It was a slow pace suitable for all ages.

Terrific guide! - Karen was absolutely wonderful, she had so much knowledge about Bridgetown and Barbados and was ready to answer any question! I took my senior parents around with her and she went slow and was careful that they were comfortable and safe at all times. I really appreciated it. She also had great suggestions for other things to do after! Thanks Karen :)
