The Historic Garrison Night Tour

TIME Friday 18 October at 18:45 until 20:45
ADDRESS Barbados George Washington House The Garrison, St. Michael

This guided walking tour takes place every Friday night and focuses on the ghastly side of life in the Garrison during the 18th Century.  It also includes a trip through the mysterious Garrison Tunnels!

The 2.5km walk starts and finishes at George Washington House, with ‘Check-in’ at the Events Ticket Booth (far left-hand corner of the car park).  Starting at 6:45pm and lasting approximately 2 hours, there is a water-stop about halfway through and we suggest bringing a torch (flash light) and suitable shoes for walking on grass and sandy tracks.
The tour will also explain:
  • Details of the construction of the unfinished Garrison Fortress 1789 – 1793
  • How ‘Graves End Beach’ got its name.
You will also experience several short dramas en route including:
  • A re-enactment of the execution by firing squad of a freed slave at the Military Cemetery
  • The unsolved John Hislop murder of 1809.
Prices are:  Adults US$15, Child US$10. Advanced booking is recommended.
