elsje Posted October 10, 2013 #51 Share Posted October 10, 2013 I can't speak for anyone else's experience but we used Tyrone just this past Tuesday and everyone in our group felt this was the best tour of our entire cruise., Tyrone was friendly, personable and made very sure we enjoyed every part of our tour. He stopped for photos when and where ever we wished and allowed us plenty of time to snap all we wanted. He also provided plenty of beverages through out the day. I would have no problem recommending him to a friend and certainly would use him again myself. Glad to read you had a great tour with him. We are looking forward to our tour with him in November. I love Barbados so much to see on the island ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We actually had Paul as our driver since Tyrone's van is not big enough. But Ty was great in communicating with me and met us ON TIME as he noted in his many e-mails to me.

KBSUE Posted November 14, 2013 #53 Share Posted November 14, 2013 We used Tyrone last week and must say he is a delight. A very personable guy. He was a policeman prior to doing tours. He knows the roads well and many of them are not in the best of shape. Felt like we saw much of the island and at a relaxed speed. His tour is well worth the cost. I never had a problem contacting him via email and would love to go with him again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luv2vacation Posted November 14, 2013 #54 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Another thumbs up for Tyrone. We used him last week and had a great time in Barbados. He showed us the entire island and then dropped us at the beach for a swim with the turtles. I never had any problems contacting him by email. He is a great guy and knows the island very well. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him and will contact him again if I am going to be in Barbados! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ourbirdnest Posted November 18, 2013 #55 Share Posted November 18, 2013 I found Tyrone threw Cruise Critic back in July for our cruise in Oct./Nov, for a 3 to 4 hour island/beach tour. Tyrone responded in a timely fashion. He even helped us out when our tour became overbooked when 22 people signed up. He was very upfront and let us know his van only holds 7 people and that he couldn't be held responsible for the condition of the bus since it's not his own vehicle. We still took our chances and continued on with this tour. He made sure in a detailed email to let us know where to meet. Once we met we had a FANTASTIC tour. Since Tyrone doesn't have a bus license, he hired a driver Mike and he was an excellent driver, and very friendly. Tyrone was very upset over previous negative comments on here so he came on our tour and narrated for over 4 hours!!! He was very personable, friendly and professional. At no time did we feel rushed and he always made sure everyone got their "pics". The other passengers - also cruise critic members - seemed to enjoy it as well. I would highly recommend Tyrone! If and when we ever go back to Barbados I will most definitely look Tyrone up again!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karysa Posted November 21, 2013 #56 Share Posted November 21, 2013 Great to hear all the wonderful comments about Tyrone's tour. Has he got his website up and going yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshred Posted January 6, 2014 #57 Share Posted January 6, 2014 We used Tyrone last month and I would have no hesitation in recommending him. Nothing was too much trouble and Tyrone knew the island inside out. There were complimentary drinks available throughout the journey and we never felt rushed all day. The tour was supposed to be 4-5 hours but we got back after 6 hours. Tyrone dropped another couple off at the beach on the way back and returned for them later. Initially, we had agreed a price of $25 each by e-mail but there was no way I could have handed over that amount but gladly paid $40 each plus a generous tip. It was worth every penny, trust me. .

SteveinPhilly Posted January 26, 2014 #58 Share Posted January 26, 2014 And what a bargain. We had nearly 5 hours with him last week. He's great and I would definitely recommend him. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruth Posted January 27, 2014 #59 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Tyrone Griffith met us at the port as he stated in his email to us. Four of us had a wonderful tour with Tyrone. He had drinks in the van for us. Tyrone was very flexible in the tour as we went around the island. He picked a wonder stop for lunch. He is very friendly, outgoing, and a pleasure to be around. I would recommend him for a fun day on the island!!! Ruth & Larry -Nancy & Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fralon Posted March 21, 2014 #60 Share Posted March 21, 2014 We recently had the pleasure of spending the day with Tyrone touring the beautiful island of Barbados. Please don't hesitate to book his tour. This man will make your visit memorable & enjoyable. We had such a great time, the highlight being when he took us to feed monkeys at a nearby golf course. He will take you wherever you want to go so that you see what you want to see. He is caring, sincere and enthusiastic. You will learn so much from him during the tour. Thanks Tyrone for the wonderful time, we will never forget! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveinPhilly Posted March 21, 2014 #61 Share Posted March 21, 2014 I posted an 8 minute video I compiled (yes, including the monkey's on the golf course!) and a stop at the Aloe Factory on Yiou Tube. We were there on a Sunday so lots of stores etc weren't open. CC would allow a link but go to Yutube and enter: Barbados withTyrone Griffith -1-19-2014 And you'll find it.

rjrice1 Posted March 22, 2014 #62 Share Posted March 22, 2014 We just returned from the Valor and also used Tyrone for a our tour guide There was a total of 11 and we had a blast. Tyrone did everything as promise and took us to a golf course. We were lucky not only did we see them, but fed them too. One of them was a fat greedy little thing... We toured the island, beach and etc. Cost $25.00 per person. Would highly recommend him.

cajjgt Posted June 11, 2014 #64 Share Posted June 11, 2014 I just purchased an intercom system for Tyrone and will bring it with me in November :) One would think with all of these great reviews he would have enough cash to fix what he owns! This is awfully nice of you!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rstep Posted July 29, 2014 #69 Share Posted July 29, 2014 When in August are you cruising & on what ship? My daughter & I will be sailing on Carnival Valior out of San Juan departing on Aug. 17. We've been looking for a tour that will show the hi lights of Barbados. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveinPhilly Posted July 29, 2014 #70 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Is there a CCroll call for your cruise? And you might want to contact Tyrone direct and see if he has others you could join. He really is great! Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveinPhilly Posted August 5, 2014 #74 Share Posted August 5, 2014 I emailed Tyrone several days ago & still haven't heard back from. Anyone else using him for Valor departing on Aug 17th? I know he has relatives in the states and comes to visit them. August is not a big season in Barbados - so he may be away. I did send him an email though to see if he got your email. I have no vested interest in Tyrone except to support him. He gave us such a great tour and is a very caring person. I now consider him my friend - though I may never get back to Barbados.

Does he have a website where you can see what's on tour? We really want to see the Rum factory but we're there on a Sunday and it seems lots of places are closed. Hope I hear back soon although I do have lots of time still! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
