At a Glance
There’s far more to Bermuda than pink sand beaches and crystal-clear waters — this British territory is also home to a wealth of history and natural beauty, just waiting to be discovered. Immerse yourself in Bermuda’s rich colonial legacy as you learn the stories of Britain’s earliest settlements in the Western Hemisphere, and hear tales of shipwrecks, pirates and maritime history. Discover its pristine nature preserves and marine sanctuaries, and delight in special explorations of private gardens. Plus visit two nature preserves to learn about limestone, natural caves and Bermuda cedar and climb a lighthouse for a stunning ocean view!
Activity Level

Walking up to two miles a day over pavement, dirt paths, grass, gravel. Some stairs, getting on and off a small motorcoach and boat, walking and standing up to 1.5 hours in museums.
