Please be advised that the excursion to the Heritage Railway consists of a 45 minute bumpy bus ride (one way) to take a 20 minute train ride crammed together on hard seats. Yes, it's informative. Yes, it's definitely uncomfortable. Then you have to endure a longer ride to the port due to rush hour on the island. Never again! ...
We did the 4 x 4 jeep safari and beach break at Copacabana Beach Club in Bridgetown. We enjoyed seeing the sights of the island – especially the stunning beaches on the Atlantic side.

We booked a Snorkeling Tour aboard the El Tigre Catamaran through Get Your Guide and had a wonderful day snorkeling, sailing, and relaxing with rum punch. We saw turtles, spotted eagle rays, and a variety of tropical fish. ...

Something needs to be done to eliminate this practice. We went to Harbour Lights beach club for the day. It was a beautiful day on the beach. ...
