With a variety of tours available, you may have a hard time picking just one! Below are brief descriptions of what you can expect on each tour with Tim.
Dockyard Bricks and Brews
Once a Royal Naval base, the Dockyard is
arguably one of the neatest, and most diverse places in Bermuda to explore. I
can promise you, that you will get a great deal more from touring with me than
going by yourself.
Today, many of the buildings have been
repurposed and play host to art galleries, a pottery, a Craft Market and much
more. We can skew the tour to more history, architecture or art and crafts.
It’s YOUR call! Or, leave it to me to give you a bit of both. And, to finish
off, I’m quite the beer fan and have a very strong working relationship with
the local microbrewery – in fact, I’m the official rep for the brew co. We will
sit down together at the end of the tour and sample a flight of 6 draft beers over
Q & A about, well, whatever you want to chat about!

Hamilton – An
Insiders Guide
Hamilton
dates back two centuries. Today,
Hamilton is made up of a rich mixture of historic and modern iconic buildings,
sculptures and murals, many of them hidden away to some extent so that only an
‘insider’ can bring them to your attention.
It
would spoil the surprise if I laid it all out, but believe you me, I know every
street, alley, building and have stories a plenty to tell! At the end of the tour, if you need a pointer as
to where to eat, drink or where to shop for that unique European fashion, those
Bermuda shorts, or even that ideal souvenir for the person minding your cat … I
can even help there to!

Rails and
Trails
There are so
many nature reserves, many of them quite small and tucked away in Bermuda and
I’ve spent professionally more than 30 years working in them or exploring them.
I have hand selected a great group of them to explore with you… to give you a
taste of the Bermuda that you won’t find on your own, or in the guide books.
This tour is ideal for anyone and especially if it’s a multi-generational group
of you, it can cater to everyone’s interest level and ability. There’s maybe even
time to stop and have a dip in the ocean if you want to cool off!
** Note:
I have an idea of where I’d prefer to show you, but if you want to explore a
specific place you’ve heard or read about, well, I think I’ve got you covered!

A Walk on The
Wild Side
Did
I mention that my background (was) post-grad research science in UK and close
work with the leaders in this field in Bermuda for, well, a long time.
In ‘ A Walk on the Wild Side ‘ – again suited to
couples, multi-generational groups , people with a general or deep academic interest in our flora and
fauna , geology and ecology , this tour is right up your street ! This tour is a bespoke tour. It’s going to
take you to where I think is best suited to explore what YOU tell me your
interest is. For that reason, we build it together in terms of how long, how
far and where.

Deconstructing
a Bermuda House
For anyone (like me) interested in how a Bermuda
house was built and how it stays up, then this might be the tour for you. We
will look at construction materials and methods and look at the key components
of a Bermuda house, and of course, at the exteriors of a few Bermuda houses.
