Summary: We did the wildlife, swim and snorkel experience through Beautiful Barbados Tours. Our bus tour guide was Glyne and he was absolutely amazing. He had so much knowledge, pride and excitement for the Barbados culture. We got to learn so much all while enjoying the beautiful island of Barbados. We would most certainly do this excursion again. Thank you so much Glyne!
