MSC Cruises

MSC Virtuosa

Be greeted by your personal driver/guide as you step into a comfortable vehicle and prepare for an adventure- and fun-filled tour of the island. With your friendly guide providing information as you go, you'll travel through areas not accessible to other types of vehicle. Sit back and drink in views of lush countryside, sugarcane estates and mansions, but also watch out for the Barbadian green monkey, a resident in these parts. Also included are lovely coastal views from the edge of a high cliff as well as a ride down the East Coast Road, a.k.a. the Cattlewash, so named for the sea spray coming up from the Atlantic. Keep your camera at hand throughout and take your pick from an on-board drinks selection to keep yourself hydrated. The convoy continues through quaint villages to a vantage point that overlooks the interior of the island known as the Scotland District. Your journey back to the port is along the West Coast, also called the Platinum Coast as many of the up-market and five star hotels are located along this side of the island. Experience a True Adventure!

This is a wonderful opportunity to immerse yourself in Barbados Island Heritage! This exciting excursion allows you to travel back in time in air-conditioned comfort through Historic Bridgetown; Barbados’ bustling capital city. You will then travel to the spectacular British colonial Garrison- a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Established in 1789, it was the heart of British defence of its valuable possessions in the Caribbean, for more than 100 years. As you arrive at the world famous George Washington House you will be treated to an overview of the Garrison Historic Area; after which you will be escorted on a tour of the house that George Washington spent six weeks of his life in. Please note: Camouflage clothing is not permitted in Barbados. Audio guides are available in French, German, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese. English commentary will be done by a live guide. Guests must be at least 4 years old to participate.

The church contains an interesting sculpture depicting the Madonna and Child with the infant St. John. The graveyard contains the tomb of Ferdinand Paleologus, a descendent of the Byzantine Imperial family, who died in Barbados in 1678 after being a resident for over 20 years. Continue on to Flower Forest, which sits on 6 acres of land, some 800 feet above sea level in the central parish of St Thomas. A meandering path winds its way between beautiful outcrops of coral, rock gardens, cool shady gullies and ponds. Wonderful photo opportunities abound for the professional and amateur photographer. Your last stop, Sunbury House, dates back to 1650. The house was destroyed by fire in 1995, and was gracefully restored and re-opened in 1996. It possesses one of the country's superior collections of antiques. The cellars, originally used for storing yams and other root vegetables grown on the plantation, now house a unique collection of antique carriages, the largest collection in the Caribbean, as well as many items used in the domestic life of the plantation. Sunbury Plantation House, located in the tranquil St. Philip countryside, is a living monument to plantation life of a bygone era, carefully restored and lovingly cherished by its owners for posterity, for the enjoyment of generations to come.

Picture yourself relaxing on the deck of a catamaran, warm sunshine sparkles on a crystal-clear Caribbean sea and smiling faces offer cool refreshing drinks as you glide past beautiful palm-fringed beaches of Barbados. This five hour lunch cruise leaves the Bridgetown Shallow Draught and, after a pleasant sail along the coast, anchors in a quiet bay where you have the choice of swimming, snorkeling on a reef, walking on the beach, or just relaxing onboard. A mouth-watering buffet luncheon is served onboard along with complimentary wine. After 1½ hours of relaxation, you'll sail to an area to snorkel and swim with turtles.

Harrison's Cave is a magnificent natural phenomenon, quite in a class of its own. Formed from a particularly beautiful type of crystallized limestone, this stunning cavern is undoubtedly one of the most spectacular natural attractions in the entire Caribbean. Though created over the course of hundreds of thousands of years, Harrison's Cave has only been accessible to the general public for some 15 years. The first recorded history of Harrison's Cave dates back to 1796, but it then lay undisturbed until it was rediscovered in 1970 by Ole Sorenson and developed by the Government of Barbados. After checking in at the Visitors Center, you will be taken into a theatre where you will watch a short film on the formation of Barbados. Then you will board the electric tram that will take you down into the cave. As the driver pulls away, your guide will commence her commentary and you are on your way to a memorable experience - magnificent chambers, incredible stalactites and stalagmites, bubbling streams, tumbling cascades, plunging waterfalls and emerald pools. Throughout the almost mile long cave the flowstone covered walls glisten in the lights as the calcite laden waters drip down from the roof. At various points the tram stops to allow passengers to disembark and have a closer look at the beauty at hand. Just remember how long it has taken for these precious features to for and please do not touch them! One stop takes place at the lowest point in the cave, where a waterfall plunges into an emerald pool. Flash photography is permitted - not video - so take your camera.

Prepare to discover the city of Castries - Saint Lucia’s capital - in a manner less ordinary: by trolley train! You’ll begin by being taken around Castries’ busy streets, passing government buildings, a local craft market and a maze of lanes and alleyways to reach your first stop: the basilica. After a brief inside visit to take photos of the late 19th-century building - the largest of its kind in the Caribbean - you’ll return to the train and continue your journey. An on-board tour guide will keep you entertained and informed on points of interest on your way through town en route to the beach. At the beach you will get a complimentary fruit punch while enjoying approximately one hour on this picture-perfect white sand beach. You will get the chance to take quick dip in the pristine water while feeling the refreshing breeze of the Caribbean Sea. Your tour then comes to a close with your return trip on the trolley train back to the ship.

Following a ride through the capital of Castries, you will head up to the Morne View Point for a panoramic view of Castries and its environs, you journey down into the Cul de Sac valley lined with banana plants swaying in the breeze, before heading through the various communities. Your drive will continue through the back roads and small communities and along the main east coast road before arriving at La Tille Waterfall. Disembark the jeeps for a well-deserved stretch - wander the gardens and view the various fruit trees and plants, washrooms are also available if needed. Enjoy a cool refreshing drink from the coolers on board before setting of on your short trek to the waterfall. Trek down the natural trail and walking sticks will be provided, if needed. The setting is in the natural forest as you walk along the earthen trail to the waterfall where you can enjoy a cool dip under the refreshing cascade and natural pool or just some relaxing time along the water’s edge. Throughout the time spent at La Tille you will learn how this peaceful estate survives on its own hydro & solar system thus providing an environmentally friendly setting. You may also be treated to the local way of roasting cashew nuts (when in season) - not to be missed! Depart La Tille with a brief stop in the Village of Dennery photo stop to view the spectacular scenery of the Atlantic Ocean. This is an adventure not to be missed as you get back on board your 4x4 Jeep for a relaxing journey back to your ship. Don’t forget your camera as spectacular photo opportunities abound! Please note: This tour is not recommended for anyone too elderly and not physically fit. There is a lot of exposure to the sun so light clothing, hat or cap is recommended along with sun bloc. Sandals/shoes should be with rubber soles and persons. In the event of heavy rainfall the water flow and water pool will be full and the water pool looks brown due to excess silt. In the event of low rainfall the water flow and water pool level is low. There are at least 40 natural earth steps leading down to the Waterfall.
