Product Description

Product Description
Travel with award-winning author Harry S, Pariser around Barbados and delve into its culinary, cultural and historical treasures. Famed for its beaches and intimate, high quality hotels and inns, Barbados is the Southern Caribbean's crown jewel. This is the only complete guide for this very special Caribbean democracy. Visit plantation-era greathouses, stroll through the Flower Forest and exotic Andromeda Gardens, descend into the depths of Harrison's Cave, fly over the island's dramatic contours by helicopter, take a sunset cruise, descend into the oceanic depths via submarine, or just kick back on one of the island's many spectacular beaches. Local bus service, festivals and events, history and culture, live music spots. It's all covered! Maps, photographs, web sites, useful tips. Humourous, informative, educational, detailed. There is no other guide quite like it!

3.0 out of 5 stars Explore Barbados (Third Edition), 26 Nov 2003
The book is informative, but restricted to the amount of content delivered in each section. At the sametime, it seems to be aimed mainly at US travellers wanting to explorer Barbados. Overal its worth buying if you don't know anything about the Island, but don't expect a book that is packed full of the latest hot tips. Style & layout of the book could be better!

4.0 out of 5 stars Explore Barbados, 7 Oct 2007
By Tami Brady "Whole Health Therapist" (Calgary, Canada) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Explore Barbados is a guide and travel overview for the island of Barbados. This book includes a wide range of information, everything from background knowledge on the island's natural and cultural environment through places to stay while on the island to interesting things to do at every stop along the way.

There are six sections in Explore Barbados: Introduction; Practicalities; Bridgetown and St. Michael's Parish; The Northern Parishes and the Scotland District; The Southern Parishes; and Accommodation Finder. The introduction section contains an overview about Barbados and the general Caribbean area. This detailed information includes land, climate, flora, fauna, history, government, economy, culture, and religion of this area.

The next chapter, Practicalities, contains contacts and general information on transportation, food, accommodations, and potential activities while enjoying Barbados. Each entry contains a short paragraph about each of these general topics including contacts and potential costs.

The rest of the sections in Explore Barbados focus on particular parts of the Island. The first portion of each section describes a little about the particular island region including the history. After this overview, specific examples of transportation, accommodation, restaurants, shopping, tourist information, services, and sights are depicted in detail. Each entry contains a short paragraph about the establishment including contacts and potential costs. Also provided in each of these sections is ample information, complete with contacts, on what activities are available in each island region. Several black and white and colour maps and photographs accompany each section. Furthermore, an Accommodation Finder section is located at the end of the book for quick and easy reference.

Explore Barbados is a valuable guide for anyone planning on traveling to Barbados. This key information is provided for easy reference while planning or while traveling. However, this book will also be just as interesting for the armchair traveler as this book contains ample information about the natural environment, history, and culture on this amazing island as well as some extremely stunning colour photographs.
