Amazing. ! Our guide Claudette, was one of the best guides we have ever had doing city tours. She is a qualified historian and extremely knowledgeable, and passionate about the history of Barbados, the seen and the unseen. Even more importantly about how to preserve it for the future generations to come so they understand their past and how it was shaped by different cultures. Her knowledge was/is vast and no question or discussion was too much. She is obviously well respected in her community as so many people knew her. Unlike other tours we have done in other countries/cities, there was no pressure to stop at a particular shop and buy, rather the opposite. The nice touch of water at the start and local juice at the end was great. Her story telling was amazing. There was no pressure of time as she went way over the allotted time, which is in now way a complaint, as we could have spent all day learning from her knowledge. Can not recommend highly enough.
