About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- valeriegB8344VA0 contributionsLovely dayWe were in Barbados to celebrate our friend's 60th birthday and she arranged a tour with Sweet Life tours for our group. We met at the location in Christ Church and set off in a bus that accomodated all of us. The tour was customised to include places in Barbados of significance to the birthday girl who grew up in Barbados. It was really lovely. Great commentary to go along with the tour which included a lunch stop in Speightstown before continuing on to the countryside including the rugged East Coast before heading back. Overall a great tour of beautiful Barbados and I think this tour company was a good choice.Written March 5, 2024
- Curiosity078841213570 contributionsGreat experience with knowledgeable and funny guideTour was a great way to experience the island. Billy the tour guide was knowledgeable and funny and has a great personality. He pointed out many interesting landmarks and basically showed us the whole island. Also included were several rum tastings which added to the enjoyment. The bus was comfortable and only seated about 12 so it was a good small group. I highly recommend this tour for an overview of the island.Written January 26, 2024
- Debs-67-470 contributionsFantastic Island TourHad a fantastic Island Tour with Billy from Sweetlife Tours on Wednesday very informative and lots of fun, + some rum tasting 🌟 Would highly recommendWritten September 16, 2023
- stephaniep4790 contributionsGreat day out!Great day out. A full day in comfortable van with about 10 people. We were given a very good overview of most of the island with numerous stops. Billy shared stories as well as a variety of types of rum with us. A fun and educational outing that was reasonably priced for all that we saw.Written January 20, 2023
- K5406OClaurent0 contributionsCustom rum tourWe had a group of 4 for a private tour with Billy, and had a wonderful time! He was very knowledgeable about Barbados and provided information to make our stops more enjoyable. We only asked to see Foursquare and St Nicholas Abbey, but he took us to some great lookout spots, Bathsheba Beach, a beautiful old church and pointed out different interesting areas on the island, such as where Rihanna grew up. We also enjoyed the rum punch and Plantation rums he brought to sample. Make sure to eat breakfast because even with small tastings, it’s a lot of rum in a 6 hour period. Our favorite rum was Cut and Dry, and our favorite stops were St John’s Church and Bathsheba Beach. Definitely recommend this tour!Written December 10, 2022
- bleddynp20210 contributionsSweet Life it is!Billy was excellent throughout our time with him. He was thoughtful, very knowledgeable about the island, generous with his time and advice and very good company throughout. His sense of humour was particularly appreciated. As others have already intimated, the Sweet Life vehicle used to transport us was clean, compliant with all Covid related (and, I am sure, all other relevant) guidelines. I would not hesitate to recommend him or his company to anyone.Written May 27, 2021
- anthonytM4315UD0 contributionsFantastic, knowledgeable and cleanWe used Sweet life tours for our airport transfers during COVID. Billy was amazing!! He followed protocols to a t!! Temp checks, sanitation, seating arrangements were all as outlined by the government. The vehicle was spacious and extremely clean. They even did supermarket runs for us while we were in quarantine. Billy is friendly, funny and extremely knowledgeable. We will used sweet life tours over and over during our stay in Barbados. Absolutely fantastic service and very professionalWritten January 20, 2021
- PAMELA L0 contributionsHow Sweet It IsMy friend Denise and I had an incredibly beautiful tour of Barbados with Billy. We presented him with our bucket list of favorite attractions and he orchestrated an extremely well planned, full-day tour. He accomplished this feat with less than 10 hours notice and used his personal contacts to arrange special site tours to fit our time frame. Billy managed the time in such a way that we never felt rushed, yet we were able to enjoy visiting the top four attractions in Barbados. He joined us in Hunte's garden so that he could take photos of us and a video,. Billy has an extraordinary depth of knowledge about current and historical Barbados and its people. His love of this work shines through every detail of his tours. It's the sweet life indeed!Written February 28, 2020

Amazing tour - Billy was super accommodating. I wasn’t able to join the tour on Sunday so had privilege to get a private tour on Thursday ! He knows the island very well and you can clearly see he is passionate about it and making sure you have the best time and experience of Barbados. Also sent pictures afterwards and made sure I could find a nice bottle of rum to come back with :) everything was top-notch from start to finish !

We wanted to see more of the island and this tour was perfect for that! We learned a lot about the history of the island and stopped at amazingly beautiful spots. We didn't realise the tour included rum tasting so that was a bonus.:) Billy, the tour guide, was great and did everything to make the tour a beautiful experience. Highly recommended!
Also recommend to take the tour one of the first days of your holiday as he'll tell you about interesting places to visit during your stay.

Billy, our driver and your guide was excellent. Informative and entertaining. We toured right round the island, stopping at certain buildings and beaches to enjoy the views.
We were well supplied with drinks en route, including rum! which was delicious.
And to top it all, Sophie, a violinist, who was one of the group, played an excerpt beautifully in one of the churches. A wonderful day

We recently went on an Island Tour with Billy and although we had heard good things, it completely exceeded our expectations. Billy was extremely informative and passionate about the island, we made multiple stops (without feeling rushed) and most importantly, the rum was flowing!!
I couldn’t recommend enough for anyone visiting the island and looking for a fun and informative way to see this incredible place. Thank you!!!

Fantastic day. Billy was a tremendous host, very knowledgeable and friendly. We saw many aspects of the island and enjoyed both the rum and Billy's entertaining stories.
Would highly recommend! Excellent value and a good way of seeing parts of the island that might otherwise be difficult.

If you are looking for a tour of Barbados look no further, this is all you need.
Small group (about 18), great air conditioned bus and a great tour guide (Billy) who will keep you entertained with great anecdotes and all the factual information you require.
A fair bit of rum thrown in as well.
Thoroughly recommended, you will have a great day.

I’d like to thank Billy at Sweet Life Tours for a fabulous road trip around the island. This trip was fascinating from start to finish. We visited and stopped off a many locations, too many to mention but certainly gave us an amazing insight into the history of this beautiful island. If you’re looking for something that will capture the islands beauty and have the benefit of a very knowledgable and easy going guide, who also provides some very tasty rums to enjoy the day then this is the one for you! Lunch also at the Fisherman’s Pub Speightstown was delicious! Thank you!!

I booked this Tour last minute and it turned out to be great. I’m originally from the Caribbean (Trinidad) and Billy was friendly from the very minute he picked us up at our hotel. Billy as a tour guide was full of knowledge but never short of jokes and alcohol of course. The experience overall was great and I now feel like I’ve made a new Bajan friend. Thanks for the tour Billy!

Fabulous island tour with Billy at Sweet Life Tours. Billy is a very easy going, humorous, informative and knowledgeable guide, who gave us an amazing tour of this beautiful island. We stopped at several places for photo opportunities and had plenty of rum on the tour as well as sampling Bajan cuisine at the Fisherman's Pub in Speightsown.
Would highly recommend. Excellent value for money and I’d like to thank Billy at Sweet Life Tours for a fabulous day.
