Barbados Car Rental Mini Guide

Car hire in Barbados is a great way to explore the island and see beyond the confines of the hotel grounds.  All inclusive packages to Barbados are very popular and many tourists miss out on the real Barbados experience.  A rental car in Barbados and picked up from Grantley Adams Airport will soon get you on your way to the hotel long before the tour bus has left the airport. Visit popular destinations on Barbados island such as St James or Christchurch and get a flavour of this Caribbean Island. 

While driving, remember to keep left, as Barbados follows British road rules. The speed limit is generally 40 km/h in towns and 60 km/h on highways, and seat belts are mandatory. It's also essential to exercise caution on narrow and winding roads, especially in rural areas. Be mindful of pedestrians and use your horn as a friendly warning when necessary. With its compact size and relatively well-maintained roads, Barbados is perfect for exploring by car.

Top tips when hiring a car in Barbados

  • Remember to drive on the left and like in the UK, the steering wheel will be on the right-hand side of the car
  • The minimum age to hire a car is 21, expect to pay a surcharge if under 25 and you’ll need a medical certificate if over 70
  • Don’t be alarmed if someone ‘honks’ the horn at you, it’s rarely used in an aggressive manner
  • GPS or sat nav is highly recommended as whilst the road network is generally good, signage is not always great
