  • Bermuda Travel Advice - goo.gl/87Qtw8
    Bermuda is a great place to visit. You can find more of my Bermuda travel information here goo.gl/87Qtw8. Unlike islands in the Caribbean, Bermuda is due east of the United States. Keep that in mind, as Bermuda is not warm all year. Tourists cannot rent cars on Bermuda. Tourists can only rent mopeds or take a bus or taxi. The food is Bermuda is amazing. Bermudian Fish Chowder is my favorite dish. Their Rum Swizzle drink is awesome too!

    Seeing as to how 98% of cruises to Bermuda dock in Kings Warf/West End, you failed to mention taking the Ferry over to Hamilton (Capitol of Bermuda). Very inexpensive and run pretty often. Trip to Hamilton on the ferry fast so you can shop and or eat there then take the bus back and the bus drivers can tell you about the many beaches along the way.

    • @IrixGuy
      @IrixGuy  2 роки тому +1

      That’s a great tip. I love riding mopeds from tip-to-tip though. Did you know that mopeds will fir on some of the ferries too?

      @sarge6870 2 роки тому

      @@IrixGuy And on the three cruises I've done there, I rented SCOOTERS as well, going from tip to tip of the 23 mile long main island. I would always rent a scooter but for those that can't or don't want to, the ferry/bus combo is a great option! Not sure if you could call them Mopeds since they don't have pedals!

      No car rentals in Bermuda unless you are Bermudian. Taxis in Bermuda are expensive but the buses are affordable with limited routes. A moped is a lot like a motorcycle.

    Been to Bermuda several times and this is a great video of some of the top places to check out! I was surprised that he didn't include Front Street as this is a popular place for shopping, nightlife, and some of the best restaurants on the island. I'm a huge fan of the following restaurants with the first being a must-go: Mad Hatter, 1609 (in season), Port-O-Cal, Red's (best steak), and Pickled Onion. I could rattle off more but these are all top notch. Oh - if you're in the mood for pub food with a balcony, Flanagan's is the place to go. Awesome wahoo bites as an appetizer.
    Definitely go to the Swizzle Inn as he mentioned. The rum swizzles are a different recipe than elsewhere on the island and quite potent! If you do go to Horseshoe Bay, make sure to explore the coves to the East of the main beach. You feel like you're discovering a secret beach the whole walk!
    If you're visiting in March-April, whale watching is a great time! I went in 2016. Tour guides were great. Just make sure to take some dramamine if you get sea-sick easily! The tour was in the neighborhood of $100 a person but well worth the price.

  • @te9363
    @te9363 7 років тому +5

    The minimum age for anyone to rent a moped is 16 yrs of age - the person must provide proof of driving skills (your current license from your home country) will usually suffice. Most rental venues will give you a test drive on a moped to see how comfortable you are, this is your chance to judge if riding a moped is for you - or not.
    The locals are very aware of the rental moped (the red letters/numbers indicate a rental) and will look out for you - and in most cases they will go wide to overtake and avoid you. We (the locals) watch out for you and your safety.

    • @IrixGuy
      @IrixGuy  7 років тому +1

      +T E Well said and very true! I had the test drive every time that I rented a moped from Oleander Cycles. Bermudians are some of the friendliest people that I have ever met and they do indeed look out for you! #Bermuda

    • @te9363
      @te9363 7 років тому +3

      We are taught to be friendly to others due to the fact that often it is the tourist dollar that feeds our families. So in essence it pays to be nice to strangers and we are brought up with that in mind, or back in the old days you would have gotten a good smack for not paying attention and being polite.

      @billarthur9847 7 років тому

      They were on the road not into the Swizzle at all. There are injuries from bikes everyday and even deaths. Road rash can spoil your holiday. Again I say we prefer to ride the bus and be able to see the scenery not have to watch traffic that drives on the wrong side of the road.
