Barbados - Low-cost car rental from 9€/day

Barbados, one of the Caribbean's most intriguing countries, is a fantastic destination to visit. The island is small enough that every location can be reached by vehicle, and it is home to not just a beautiful shoreline, but also a surprisingly diversified culture and protected natural regions.

Top cities and tourist destinations

Beaches. Barbados' gorgeous coastline, like that of other locations in the region, is its main draw. Aside from sunbathing and swimming in the Caribbean, the island also has some of the greatest diving on the globe, with several reefs and shipwrecks to explore. Meanwhile, Barbados' south shore is recognized as a surfing hotspot.

Bridgetown. Bridgetown is not only the political capital of Barbados, but it is also one of the island's most popular tourist destinations. The ancient port district known as the Careenage, the Barbados Museum (placed inside a former military jail), the Nidhe Israel Synagogue, and even the George Washington House are all popular attractions (Barbados was the only foreign country that the founding father visited).

Barbados Wildlife Reserve is a protected area on the island of Barbados. Barbados Wildlife Reserve, located in the north-central section of the island, is the largest animal sanctuary on the country. The majority of the animals housed within the reserve are not hazardous to people and so freely roam among the tourists, including several types of monkeys, birds, and iguanas. The animal refuge is within a 20-minute drive from Andromeda Gardens, one of Barbados' most beautiful natural spaces.

Best driving routes

Caves. Barbados is mostly made up of limestone, which has resulted in the formation of hundreds of natural caverns, some of which have been transformed into tourist attractions. These include the Animal Flower Cave (approximately a 45-minute drive from Bridgetown) as well as Harrison's and Coles Cave (located in the inland part of Barbados, about 25 minutes northeast of Bridgetown).

The rum tour. Barbados is one of the birthplaces of rum — the legendary pirate drunk has a particular place in national mythology — and it is still produced on the island and sold throughout the world. There are many distilleries on the island that provide tours, including Mount Gay and West Indies, which are popular with travelers. Even if you can't taste the rum because you're driving, it's still intriguing to learn about its history and contemporary practices. Some distilleries provide housing nearby, so you may park your car before the tour and stay the night. Bridgetown. Bridgetown is not only the political capital of Barbados, but it is also one of the island's most popular tourist destinations. The ancient port district known as the Careenage, the Barbados Museum (placed inside a former military jail), the Nidhe Israel Synagogue, and even the George Washington House are all popular attractions (Barbados was the only foreign country that the founding father visited).
