Bathsheba Beach

Bathsheba is located on the Eastern coastline of Barbados. It is said that this area was named after the wife of King David whose name was “Bathsheba”. Legend has it that she bathed in milk to keep her skin beautiful and soft, and the rolling surf waters of Bathsheba’s “Soup Bowl” resembled Bathsheba’s bath. The area is popular with surfers. It is a popular area for locals and visitors alike and is dotted with several seaside cottages.

We loved our tour of Hunte's Garden and St. Nicholas Abbey but what made the experience exceptional was our driver/guide, Cris. She was funny, knowledgeable, chill and just a pleasure to be around.

I really like the trip, it was nice and relaxing, the tour guide Glyan was very accommodating and tried to inform us about almost everything. I whish we could spend more time in Hunte's Garden and got know that there are different train options. The train ride was highlights of the trip.
Fun

On the positive side Hunte’s garden was really good and the guide Glyne was great, really engaging and shared lots of interesting facts about the island. Negatives - too much wasted time as a result of people booking multiple different tour options on the same bus which wasn’t advertised. Ended up spending 2 hours at St Nicholas Abbey which was way too long whilst people who had done the train option then did the tour of the house. Lunch was underwhelming at a soulless roadside cafe. What was advertised as a 6 hour trip ended up 8 hours with a lot of dead time.

The locations visited were great but the tour operator itself needs to work on time management. I was picked up at 8:45am and the tour is advertised as 5 hours but I was not delivered back to my hotel until 4:30pm. Fortunately I didn’t have any other obligations that were disrupted by this but I know myself and many others on the tour were ready to be back to our hotels hours earlier.

The Hunte’s garden visiting experience was very memorable with awe inspiring plants, birds, insects and the unique garden designs providing tranquility and escapism from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Meeting the charming and knowledgeable Dr Hunte in person was an added bonus and provided an insight to how the garden project came to fruition. The resting places incorporated into the garden are also quirky and interesting, whilst the gift onsite shop sells a variety of nice souvenirs. I highly recommend booking a visit to the gardens, you will definitely be enchanted by the experience.
Mixed Experience

Mixed experience really. The tour guide, Omar, was very informative and friendly. unfortunately, the experience at St Nicholas Abbey, while very good, was rushed. We were hurried from house tour to rum tasting but then had to go for the train ride before it was finished. Only got to taste one rum. We were supposed to get the remaining tasting after the train but we were rushed away without doing it. Huntes Gardens is excellent but would benefit from some signposting and a map of the correct route around the gardens. Instead everyone was apparently lost and ending up in dead ends. again the visit to the gardens were very rushed.
Brilliant trip
