You give no clarity to your Travel advisory, I travel often to Barbados and have very comfortable visits.
Thank god I was Born Canadian, maybe we have little fears. This being the reason I and many friends enjoy Barbados. There is danger in everyone’s back door, this is not a reason to intimidate a travel advisory.
Thanks Greg.
Evidently Greg you are missing the point. The areas mentioned are high crime/drug areas. All the advisory is asking for visitors to be vigilant when traveling through those areas.
Why don’t the us government give a bad review on they self. With all the crime they have people just knocking you off just for looking at them.they have to live scared everyday tho
