Itinerary

  • Hunte's Gardens

    Hunte's Garden is a picturesque and path offers many surprises, thanks to the superbly created series of mini-gardens embedded within the main large unit, combining vibrant colours and textures of rare exotic plants to offer the visitor a most uplifting and fulfilling experience. The owner and creator of this beauty, Anthony Hunte, is the heart and soul of this place. You may meet him in the garden or around his extraordinary house and you can be sure to be welcomed with fascinating & colorful stories. Be sure to have your camera ready, as birds and animals love to visit this garden too! Your exquisite experience is gloriously heightened by classical music subtly wafting in the air, adding an extra layer of delight to an amazing ambiance. This magical garden has been featured in many Gardening publications and TV series.

    1 hour

  • Bathsheba Beach

    Bathsheba is located on the Eastern coastline of Barbados. It is said that this area was named after the wife of King David whose name was “Bathsheba”. Legend has it that she bathed in milk to keep her skin beautiful and soft, and the rolling surf waters of Bathsheba’s “Soup Bowl” resembled Bathsheba’s bath. The area is popular with surfers. It is a popular area for locals and visitors alike and is dotted with several seaside cottages.

    20 minutes

  • Morgan Lewis Mill (Pass By)

    The Morgan Lewis Sugar Mill was built in 1727 it is one of the many Barbadian windmills once used to produce sugar, and one of the two last functioning sugar windmills in the world. The Morgan Lewis Mill ceased grinding sugarcane for commercial purposes in 1947 and was subsequently given to the Barbados National Trust.

  • Cherry Tree Hill

    Cherry Tree Hill is eight hundred and fifty (850) ft above sea level and is a part of St. Nicholas Abbey plantation. Actually due to the size of the St. Nicholas Abbey property, Cherry Tree Hill actually borders, St.Peter and St. Andrew. Many years ago, the drive on either side to get to it was flanked by cherry trees, thus the reason for its name; however these were replaced with mahogany trees which now line the road. The trees were planted in celebration of the signing of The Treaty of Paris in 1763

    15 minutes

  • St. Nicholas Abbey

    St Nicholas Abbey is located in Saint Peter, Barbados, and is a plantation house, museum and rum distillery Colonel Benjamin Berringer built the house in 1658. This house is one of only three genuine Jacobean mansions in the Western Hemisphere. It's similar to the English Jacobean-era manor houses of the first half of the seventeenth century, the period between the Tudor and Georgian styles, beginning in the reign of James I.

Love Our Tour & Cris Rocks!

Published on May, 2025

We loved our tour of Hunte's Garden and St. Nicholas Abbey but what made the experience exceptional was our driver/guide, Cris. She was funny, knowledgeable, chill and just a pleasure to be around.

Great day out

Published on Apr, 2025

I really like the trip, it was nice and relaxing, the tour guide Glyan was very accommodating and tried to inform us about almost everything. I whish we could spend more time in Hunte's Garden and got know that there are different train options. The train ride was highlights of the trip.

Fun

A must visit when in Barbados

Published on Feb, 2025

The Hunte’s garden visiting experience was very memorable with awe inspiring plants, birds, insects and the unique garden designs providing tranquility and escapism from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Meeting the charming and knowledgeable Dr Hunte in person was an added bonus and provided an insight to how the garden project came to fruition. The resting places incorporated into the garden are also quirky and interesting, whilst the gift onsite shop sells a variety of nice souvenirs. I highly recommend booking a visit to the gardens, you will definitely be enchanted by the experience.
