BRIDGETOWN, BARBADOS

This tour will appeal to those of us who enjoy soft adventure. Leaving the port by 4x4 Landrovers, we will pass Gun Hill Signal Station and its stone-carved lion. Soon we venture off-road, for a view of what the island probably looked like when it was first settled in the 16th century.
