LUXURY HOLIDAYS & TOURS BARBADOS

LUXURIOUS BEACHFRONT RETREAT

Of course, there isn’t just one reason Barbados is so popular – there are hundreds. The immaculate beaches, the luxurious beachfront retreats, the championship golf courses, the nightlife, the stunning scenery, the food at Oistins Fish Fry…

Our expert consultants can recommend hundreds of wonderful places to eat scattered around the coastline of Barbados, all serving their own excellent versions of the famous Bajan cuisine. One particular favourite is Oistins, where locals and visitors alike come to enjoy tuna, swordfish, marlin or mahi-mahi grilled on the spot, fresh from the sea. You could go on a gastronomic tour of the glamorous West Coast alone.

Barbados also offers endless opportunities for relaxation. Driving around the rugged coast will introduce you to many of them. You’ll find places where you can swim and snorkel with turtles, and championship golf courses where you’ll be torn between concentrating on putting or admiring the sparkling sea views.

On the East Coast, you can capture all the jaw-dropping scenery around Bathsheba. And then there are grand plantation houses and natural wonders like the Barbados Wildlife Reserve, Chancery Lane Swamp and Harrison’s Cave – a great cavern full of thundering waterfalls, sparkling cascades and brooding pools.

Take our specialists advice: alternate your days between touring and the beach, and save your evenings for the sizzling Bajan nightlife.

WHY CHOOSE US

TRUSTED BY FELLOW TRAVELLERS

“EXPERTLY TAILORED, EFFORTLESSLY ENJOYABLE”

We travelled to Indochina in January/February with an itinerary designed by The Ultimate Travel Company – and it was spot on. Rob, our consultant, really understood what we were looking for and created a journey that suited us perfectly. The choice of hotels was excellent, and the pace was just right, with enough time built in to relax and recharge between the different experiences. The service throughout was professional, personal and thoughtful – exactly what you want from a travel specialist.

“INDIA AT ITS MOST INCREDIBLE”

Unbelievably brilliant from start to finish. The Ultimate Travel Company gave us complete flexibility while tailoring the trip to our personal preferences. Communication was excellent throughout, and the in-country team in India was super-efficient at every stage. The quality of the experience was exceptional – and the value for money, remarkable. From expert naturalists to thrilling wildlife encounters (tigers, leopards, 140 species of birds), awe-inspiring temples, the Taj Mahal, scenic walks and warm, welcoming people – not to mention the fantastic curry – it was a truly superb holiday. “Ultimate” really is “The Ultimate Travel Company”!

“EVERY TRIP EXCELLENT – AND MORE TO COME”

I’ve been on several small group holidays with The Ultimate Travel Company and every one has been outstanding. My most recent trip in February was no exception – expertly organised, responsive to questions, and full of memorable experiences. The itineraries are well thought out, the hotels top-notch, and the group sizes just right. Their tour leaders are knowledgeable, supportive and great company. I haven’t looked elsewhere since discovering Ultimate – and I’m already planning my next.
