One of the many names Barbados came to be known by was "Little England". What could be more British than a garden and a great house? Visit Anthony Hunte's masterpiece garden; this garden in a sink hole that has been transformed into one of the most beautiful spots on the island. A visit to Barbados will not be complete without a stop in Bathsheba, famous for its breathtaking beauty and pounding surf. Following Bathsheba there we will make our way to Morgan Lewis Windmill. The windmill is on the top 100 endangered historical sites in the world. Then we will continue up the hill to Cherry Tree Hill for a short photo op. stop before moving on to St. Nicholas Abbey.

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.

Thoroughly enjoyable day

5.00Excellent day out. Beautiful gardens and a look back into the past in Anthony Huntes house. Bathsheba coastline was stunning and the rum distilling process at St Nicholas Abbey seems to have changed little over the years. There was a choice of chicken or flying fish for lunch and our guide Omar really made the whole day enjoyable.

2.00It was a small group tour because the operating company combined our tour with people going to Harrison's Cave. Net result was that we lost 40 minutes plus causing the whole trip to be rushed. The gardens were beautiful, St. Nicholas ABBEY interesting ,tasted 2 rums not three .Bathsheba consists of some rocks and a few shacks and that's it.
What a great guide,...

5.00A well planned day. Stephen our driver was informative friendly organised & professional. The Hunts gardens were amazing, looked after extremely well, friendly staff & the trip far exceeded our expectation. There were places to rest to absorb the tranquility & to have a drink Well worth a visit. Similarly St Nucholas Abbey & train ride were excellent. In particular the train journey in comfortable open style carriages to the viewing point at Cherry Hill was most enjoyable & stunning views. A lot of information at the abbey including the archived film A fantastic day, thank you
A fabulous trip

5.00Tour with Glyne to Hunte’s gardens, Bathsheba Beach, St Nicolas Abbey including the train ride. Glyne really looked after us and was a font of knowledge but also great fun. The train ride of 45 minutes was excellant and not to be missed. It takes you to Cherry Tree Hill with amazing views. I can highly recommend this tour. Thanks Glyne and Beautiful Barbados Tours x

1.00Our complaint is with the efficiency of the tour. We had basically 2 destinations that day, St. Nicholas Abbey and Hunte's Gardens. We were picked up first, 8:05 am, and then a second couple from a hotel a few kms away. Then we headed out, drove for an hour(? Still hopeful at this point that we were going the right direction). A stop at Harrison's Caves to pick up another couple had to take 20 minutes. We then seemed to take the long way to get to St. Nicholas Abbey where we met up with the final 2 people for our tour. It appeared we missed our appointed time for a train ride and we waited approx 30 minutes to have our turn. The rest of our visit at the Abbey was rushed to meet time schedules out of our control. On to Hunte's Gardens where we were allotted 45 minutes. Very unfortunate as it's a lovely spot. Our final stop was at Bathseda for a 15 minute photo op. The last two couples to join the tour were staying on the opposite side of the island from the first four guests. The latecomers were delivered home first. The last 4 guest therefore spent 8.5 hours on the tour, rather than 5 hours.
Love Our Tour & Cris Rocks!

5.00We 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.
Great day out

5.00I 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.
