Nidhe Israel Synagogue and Museum

The Synagogue is one of our several stops on our food and heritage tour. Our walking tour starts at 11:30 am and the meeting point is in Jubilee Gardens, Bridgetown ( across from Courts store and Queen's Mary Anglican Church). Our expert guide will direct you through the city, pointing out the numerous historical sites of interest. We will make three food stops at local eateries where you will be treated to a guided sampling of authentic, delectable Bajan cuisine.  Our guide will explain and answer your questions about food history, flavours, ingredients and preparation.  There is a different menu at each stop so you can get a real taste  of the range of Bajan cuisine.  There is one dedicated beverage stop where you can quench your thirst with the beer of champions, Banks Beer or just rehydrate with bottled water. Our last food stop is near the Wharf, with a triple whammy of food, history and sea.  You will take home a 'likkle' loot bag with a local sweet treat to  savour later and think of the sweetness of Barbados.  The tour lasts 2 - 2 1/2 hours and the  tour guide will accompany you back to the meeting point.
