Very good tour! Customized to our preferences. - My wife and I booked this private tour as a way to experience Barbados during our cruise stop. We had a very good tour. Our guide Selwyn took us around the island over the course of the day. Our preference was to visit as much of the island as possible, learn some of the history, and see the key sights. Selwyn customized the tour to those preferences. He was very polite and made our visit to Barbados very worthwhile.
