Celebrate life on the beautiful shores of the Caribbean sea at the Barbados Food and Rum Festival.

After being sidelined in 2020, this event is coming back to being one of the best in show. As the name boasts, this festival showcases the best culinary and epicurean delights the gorgeous island nation has to offer. Best of all, the festival takes places across various happening venues throughout the islands all with their own theme, live entertainment and more.

In addition to the festival, we will indulge in our own private events, including tours and cruises around the island.

Day Tour of the Island
Prepare for an overall packed day that will somehow leave you thrilled instead of tired. Trust me.

We start off our tour visiting several noted sites on the coast. Our tour includes stops to the UNESCO Heritage Site - Harrison's Cave. Explore the flowing streams, towering columns, and deep pools of pristine water inside the cave. Go deep underground to learn about the cave's formation and the geology of the island and of course, get some great pics to cement your visit.

After the cave, we continue to tour the island with stops at the beach and a local restaurant for lunch before heading back
