PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
By purchasing tickets through our website, third-party booking platform, travel agent, cruise partner, or by participating in a Lickrish Food Tour, you agree to the following Terms & Conditions.
1. Guest Conduct & Compliance
All guests must comply with the laws of Barbados, safety instructions provided by Lickrish Food Tours, and reasonable requests made by participating restaurants, vendors, drivers, and establishments visited during the tour.
Lickrish Food Tours reserves the right to refuse participation or remove any guest whose behaviour is disruptive, unsafe, unlawful, intoxicated, or inappropriate. No refund will be issued in such cases.
2. Cancellation & Reschedule Policy
Cancellations and reschedule requests must be made more than 24 hours prior to the scheduled departure time.
• Cancellations made more than 24 hours before departure qualify for a 100% refund.
• Reschedule requests made more than 24 hours before departure are permitted free of charge, subject to availability.
Cancellations or reschedule requests made 24 hours or less prior to departure are non-refundable and not eligible for rescheduling.
No refunds, credits, or reschedules will be granted for late arrivals, no-shows, or partial attendance.
3. Tour Departures & Punctuality
Tours depart promptly at the scheduled time. Guests are solely responsible for arriving at the correct meeting location on time.
No refunds or reschedules will be granted for late arrivals or failure to locate the meeting point.
4. Cruise Ship & Airline Delays
If your cruise ship or flight is delayed or cancelled, please contact us immediately at (246) 622-1886.
In cases involving verified cruise port cancellations, significant airline disruptions, or severe weather events preventing attendance, we will make reasonable efforts to reschedule or provide a refund at management’s discretion.
5. Weather Policy
Tours operate rain or shine. However, in cases of severe weather conditions that may compromise guest safety (e.g., heavy showers, tropical storms, hurricanes), Lickrish Food Tours reserves the right to cancel or reschedule tours.
Tours cancelled by the Company due to unsafe weather conditions will receive a full refund or reschedule option.
6. Special Diets & Food Allergies
Currently, we accommodate vegetarian diets only, with advance notice at the time of booking.
We are unable to guarantee accommodations for vegan, gluten-free, or other specific dietary requirements.
Guests must inform us in advance of any food allergies or medical dietary restrictions. Food is prepared by independent third-party establishments and cross-contamination may occur.
Participation in food tastings is voluntary. Lickrish Food Tours accepts no liability for allergic reactions, food-related illness, or adverse outcomes resulting from consumption.
7. Third-Party Vendors & Transportation
Food tastings are provided by independent restaurants and vendors.
Transportation (where applicable, including the Round de Towns Tour) is provided by licensed third-party operators who are independent contractors and not employees or agents of Lickrish Food Tours.
Lickrish Food Tours is not liable for injury, loss, damage, delay, or accident arising from services provided by third-party establishments or transportation operators.

Participating establishments reserve the right to refuse entry or service to any individual at their sole discretion. Lickrish Food Tours shall not be held responsible for such decisions.

Barbados operates on Atlantic Standard Time (AST) and does not observe Daylight Saving Time.
Guests are responsible for confirming the correct local time. Lickrish Food Tours accepts no responsibility for missed tours due to time zone misunderstandings.
10. Shopping During the Tour
To maintain schedule integrity, guests are asked to refrain from shopping until the tour concludes.
Tours will continue as scheduled, with or without guests delayed due to shopping. No refunds or reschedules will be granted in such circumstances.

Guests are responsible for safeguarding their personal belongings at all times. Lickrish Food Tours accepts no responsibility for lost, stolen, or damaged personal property.
