Hi, I’m Kevin, a proud Barbadian who loves nothing more than making people feel welcome. I’m a people person at heart, and I enjoy good conversation, great food, and the easy rhythm of island life. If you’re curious about Barbados beyond the beach, I’d love to show it to you. I’ve spent 26 years in hospitality, and for the last 3 I’ve been a tour guide. Hospitality taught me how to read people, anticipate what they need, and make every guest feel looked after. Guiding lets me do that out on the open road, and I never get tired of that moment when a guest sees something for the first time and lights up. Barbados is home, and I love sharing its heritage, its scenery, and its stories. From the historic streets of Bridgetown and the Garrison to quiet gardens, wildlife trails, and the island’s famous rum heritage, I’ll show you the places and traditions that make this island special, along with the local stories you won’t find in a guidebook. I specialize in small group tours with a maximum of five guests, so you’re never just part of a crowd. You can ask questions, take your time, and see what interests you most. Come explore Barbados with me. I can’t wait to share my island with you!

Overview of your Bridgetown tour
**Taste rum where it all began.** Discover two sides of Barbados rum on a private tour that blends the island’s rich rum heritage with authentic local flavour. Begin with a guided tasting at Mount Gay, the world’s oldest rum brand, before travelling along the stunning west coast to John Moore Bar, one of Barbados’ most iconic rum shops. Here, enjoy rum the Bajan way, paired with delicious local bites and a laid-back island atmosphere. Along the way, explore UNESCO-listed Bridgetown, historic Holetown, and some of the Caribbean’s most breathtaking coastline. Travel in the comfort of a private vehicle with a knowledgeable local guide, with the entire experience carefully timed around your cruise ship’s schedule.
