Our tour with Debbie was very fun and informative. Debbie picks you up from your hotel and gives you a tour of various parts/towns in Barbados, including historical monuments, murals, and local “ must visit “ spots. Debbie is incredibly knowledgeable Barbadian history and culture, and answered any questions we had on tour. Debbie makes you feel comfortable and is relatable. My one feedback is that Debbie be more communicative about what is accommodated for on the tour versus which sites have an extra fee. For example, we were under the impression that the Rum Tour was accommodated, as It was listed on the list she provided of sites to choose from. That being said we ended paying extra, on top of the $125 initial price. Otherwise , the tour was absolutely amazing.

What a thorough and outstanding tour covering every province of Barbados! Since we had a larger family (with three kids - 18, 14, and 5) we split into two cars. What a great decision and Debra was an absolute encyclopedia of knowledge! Took us to a variety of different locations ranging from Gun Hill to Animal Flower Cave and also found a great place for lunch. Also very warm and welcoming tour guide. Spent almost six hours with her and time just flew. Now we can chill for the rest of our holiday knowing we saw some of the best Barbados has to offer from an amazing guide. Well done Debra!

This was an amazing tour and Kristin was an even better guide. We had him twice for two different tours and he didn’t disappoint! It’s evident that he’s a very knowledgeable guide and has a passion for Barbados history, and future. We especially enjoyed Kristin’s and the tour’s emphasis on the Black experience. As a Black people, it was important to hear a nuanced account of the island’s Black histories and contributions. Yes, Barbados is a majority Black country, but most of our experiences glossed over Black history other than mentioning “slavery.” Kristin made us feel respected and engage with a history that put us at the center and not along the margins. It’s in the name Chattel House. This tour and experience with Kristin enjoyable and educational.

A really interesting tour. More about the history of Barbados than Speightstown specifically but Kristin was really knowledgable and friendly. Good to take time to look at the buildings and their history which you might miss on your own. Nice bars and restaurants to cool down afterwards.

Deborah was early and waiting for us when we arrived at our meeting place. She was very welcoming and informative. We saw so many nice places and Deborah’s storytelling was entertaining! We asked for advice about things to do and were not disappointed by Deborah’s suggestions about what to see and where to eat. Highly recommend!

What an amazing experience! We customized our tour to see the places that were of most interest to us. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and filled our tour with informative and interesting anecdotes. We had a great overview of the island - Bridgetown, Speightstown and Cherry Tree Hill. I would highly recommend touring with Chattel House Tours.

Really interesting walking tour led by Kristin. Full of good information about the Garrison area and the exhibits in the museum. Great goody bag too. Highly recommend this tour.

Our guide was really knowledgeable and gave us a fascinating walking tour encompassing the key buildings of the colonial era garrison together with a full commentary on the galleries of the museum. He was good on the natural history and the original inhabitants. Really good value.

The site and the tour were absolutely amazing!!!! Extraordinary interesting, very well guided, extraordinary nicely renovated!!!!! Our tour guide, Mr James Blades, was absolutely phenomenal!!! We travel a lot and I can say that he was without a doubt the best tour guide we ever had in many years of visiting many places around the world!!! Thank you!!!

Evan was friendly, knowledgeable and a great guide. I’d highly recommend the tour, perfect timing, learnt a lot and also got a free goodie bag with water, snacks and earphones for audio guide.

A pleasant and informative tour of the history, architecture and street art of Speightstown. Recommended

This was my first visit to Barbados, and I’m glad I chose this tour with Deborah. As a local, she can tell a lot about the island and its history, and how generations of her family lived there. I was able to see many interesting places across Barbados, learned more about the country, and, of course, enjoyed numerous magnificent views. The experience that I enjoyed the most was a little hike along the shore near Animal Flower Cave at the northern tip of the island. The weather was windy, and I saw huge ocean waves crushing into the cliffs at the coast, with water splashes reaching the ground tens of meters higher. It was incredible, and I’m thankful to Deborah for showing me the beauty of the island and sharing her experience. I recommend this tour to everyone.

We booked Deborah Grant to take us out for the tour of the west side. What a great time, Deborah is very knowledgeable about her beautiful island and has a passion when telling its history, we visited many places including the Animal Flower Cave, Holetown, Spightown, the beautiful gardens at Andromeda Gardens,they have Hummingbirds, just wow! The tour was relaxed and very good. I would and have booked another tour. My advice get in contact quickly, she also does Tours By Locals Deborah G.

I had a very informative tour of the old English garrisons in Bridgetown. A smart young man told me a bit about the history of each building and also shared insights about the history of Barbados from the Barbadian perspective. Also learned about George Washington house and headed there after this tour - and I'm glad I did.

Very informative tour of Speightstown. The guide had an extensive knowledge of the history of Barbados and welcomed questions. We had a really fun/educational morning. Thank you for accommodating us on Bank Holiday Monday!
