The Barbados Food & Rum Festival is an annual event that celebrates the culinary and cultural heritage of Barbados, as well as the island’s famous rum industry. The festival typically takes place between the later month of October or early November.
The Festival features an array of events, including food tastings, cooking demonstrations, rum tastings, and live music performances. Some of the island’s top chefs and mixologists participate in the festival, showcasing their skills and creativity with local ingredients and rum.
The festival also includes a variety of cultural activities, such as tours of historic sites, art exhibitions, and cultural performances.
Events mentioned within the above description of the itinerary are the only events (fetes/parties) included within the purchase of the Black Girls Travel Too Barbados Food & Rum. However, there are several events occurring during the Black Girls Travel Too Barbados Food & Rum Experience. Some are on land while others are on water. We provide our guests with the flexibility of adding additional experiences at their own expense.
As a rough estimate, you could plan to spend $50 to $100 USD per day on food and activities outside of the Black Girls Travel Too Barbados Food & Rum 2023 Experience
The currency of Barbados is the Barbadian Dollar (BBD). The Barbadian Dollar is converted at a rate of $1.98 (BBD) to $1.00 (USD). The Barbadian Dollar is fixed to the U.S. Dollar and does not fluctuate like in most foreign countries. U.S. currency is accepted across the island and most stores and restaurants accept major credit cards.
