With charming coastal towns, seducing swaying palms and silver sandy shores, Barbados is definitely one to tick off the bucket list.

Blend that with welcoming and laid back locals and you’ll experience island living at its finest!
And if rum is your tipple of choice, then you’re in luck! Widely credited as the birthplace of this popular beverage, some of Barbados’ finest exports come from the plantation itself. With walking tours offered around the onsite distillery, you’ll be able to see the distillation process and even have a chance at the tasting (and buying!) of some handcrafted favourites. You’ll be spoilt for choice!
