BEST OF BARBADOS ENDING AT THE AIRPORT
Step aboard your coach for a scenic drive through the hills of the countryside to St. John’s Parish Church, which is perched on a cliff, 800 feet above sea level, overlooking coastal St. John and the Atlantic Ocean.
The church contains an interesting sculpture depicting the Madonna and Child with the infant St. John. The graveyard contains the tomb of Ferdinand Paleologus, a descendent of the Byzantine Imperial family, who died in Barbados in 1678 after being a resident for over 20 years. Continue to Tropical Garden, a tropical flower garden in the parish of St George. A meandering path winds its way between outcrops of coral, rock gardens, cool shady gullies and ponds. Your last stop, Sunbury House, dates to 1650. It possesses one of the country’s superior collections of antiques.
The cellars, originally used for storing yams and other root vegetables grown on the plantation, now house a unique collection of antique carriages, the largest collection in the Caribbean, as well as many items used in the domestic life of the plantation. Sunbury Plantation House, located in St. Philip countryside, is a living monument to plantation life of a bygone era, carefully restored and lovingly cherished by its owners for posterity, for the enjoyment of generations to come. Your excursion will end at the airport in time for your return flight home.
