Advantages: Great Tour, Great Price, Great Service

Disadvantages: None

The West coast is a lovely place to stay quieter than the South and the beaches are wonderful especially Payne?s Bay Beach. The whole coast is lined with trees :o) The south is mostly cement.

On my last trip my husband and I planned on a taxi our last trip but the fare is horrendous. Imagine this for US$65.00 per person we visited Harrison?s Cave, Orchid World, St Johns Church, Bathsheba, Had a great Lunch Visited the Reserve and drove through the West Coast including Holetown where the settlers first landed. In addition to this our guide from Glory Tours was wonderful and knowledgeable http://glorytours.org We fell in love with the Island so much that day we decided to rent a car from Stoutes Car Rental http://www.stoutescar.com which also proved a wonderful decision.

I would suggest taking a tour with Glory Tours first and then renting a car the tour will give you a better an idea of places you might wish to explore a bit more and the car will give you the extra time to do it :o)



More reasons to visit Barbados. My Husband is a great sports fan; one of his favorite pass times at home is Clay Target Shooting. I never dreamed Barbados would have
A clay target club but on arrival my husband was very quick to discover Kendal Sporting
http://kendalsportingclaysbarbados.com I though well I have lost my Husband for a few days which was not altogether bad, however I was encouraged by another couple staying at the hotel with us to take a trip up to Kendal myself so I decided I would be a good sport and go along.

On arriving at Kendal I was very impressed the Club was more like a mini Country Club and the scenery out in the middle of the Country was beautiful. We where very fortunate to meet Richard Bradshaw one of the directors of the Club he was very helpful and after a few hours of lying by the pool he encourage me to learn the sport that had long been a favorite of my husbands.

Richard was a great instruc
tor and gave me a thorough education on the correct way to handle a rifle and a pistol. I was very pleased with all that I learnt. Before this experience I was nervous about rifles and pistols but thanks to my new education from Kendal Sporting I am now a lot more confident that faced with one in a negative situation I would be able to react. I also think I may start to join my Husband on occasion at his local club.

On completing my education my Husband and I had a fantastic lunch at the Club and watched a football match on the big screen by the bar. It was a wonderful day one of three we spent at the facility. The night before we returned home we made one last visit to Kendal for a relaxing dinner, and to say good bye and see you next time to some new friends.

A good start but i'd love to read more as i'm looking into going there for my honeymoon in Feb. It's between Barbados and Cuba at the mo so i need a bit of persuading.
