Private Bermuda Island Tour: Gibbs Lighthouse, Gardens & Heritage

Cover Bermuda's most iconic landmarks — Gibbs Hill Lighthouse, the Botanical Gardens, historic St. George's, and the pink-sand coast — in a fully customised private tour with an expert local guide. The definitive, unhurried way to understand this extraordinary island.

What to expect

Your private guide collects you at the pier and charts a course through 400 years of Bermudian history. At Gibbs Hill Lighthouse — the world's oldest cast-iron lighthouse — you climb 185 steps for a panoramic view stretching to the outer reef line. The Botanical Gardens deliver acres of sub-tropical colour and the charming Camden House. In St. George's (a UNESCO World Heritage town), your guide brings the colonial-era streets to life with stories of privateers, Prohibition rum-running, and the island's unique Anglo-Caribbean identity.
