excellent tour, Ted is a diamond, very funny and very informative, he certainly knows all the best places to stop on the island, plenty of stops to look around and lots of fruit or rum punch as you wish to lubricate the proceedings, also a stop at the plantation house for lunch. one highlight was when we met ted's "twin"...

Amazing tour would advise to all I'm 14 and loved it their was an elderly couple who loved and some young children who loved everyone who was on our tour loved it. Monkeys, The View, The Plantation house and most of all the food must try is the macaroni cheese. Well worth the time and money. And can't describe what... More

My husband and I read about Ted's tour before we got to Barbados and just knew we had to do it. I phoned Ted and he was the kindest, warmest man to ever talk to. As I had stupidly fallen due to a pothole as soon as we arrived, Ted said he would make sure he would save the front... More

To those individuals who can find nothing else to say about this tour than to moan, sorry, you must have a miserable life!! Ted was an extremely interesting and informative guide and driver. Some people have said that they could listen to him all day - I agree!! Personally I think that it was very good value for money, when... More

Poor quality transport, seats are not fit for the purpose. Incessant drivel and attempted humour from the host intermixed with some relevant and interesting facts. The "double act" with some scrounger called Rumpunch at the north of the island was cringeworthy and bordering on begging! Lunch was average and the tour of the house was a memorable lowpoint. Overall, a... More

The recent 'Overated' review is a little unfair, based on only 30 minutes in a 7 hour day. Sure, I must agree that making one or two passengers sit in aisle seats with only low back support is not good - presumably in case of 'no-shows' - but Ted's zestful and highly informative performance is life enhancing. On 2nd March,... More

Joined Ted's Tour of Barbados yesterday. He was so informative but with a sense of humour too. Could have listened to him all day. In fact we did!! How he had any voice left at the end of the day is a miracle. If you want to see Barbados and learn so much about this island then I recommend this... More

I'm genuinely puzzled by the reviews on thsi trip. It was overbooked on the day I went so they had to pull a seat doiwn in the aisle of the bus which was uncomfortbale not just for me but the passengers I was sitting next to. If you want a busy bus tour, primarily focused at a retired crowd and... More
