When I think Bermuda, I think Bermuda Triangle and I think death and bla bla bla. I’m glad you had fun there. That vegan burger looked so good and it’s actually refreshing to hear there are no American chain fast food places out there.
LOL yeah my friend texted me don't get lost when I was coming back lol. But definitely not the same. And the vegan burger was delicious! Thanks for watching!
I'm a firm believer of always trying local foods when traveling. Not necessarily eat all local food on the entire trip, but it's a must do. I would love to be in Bermuda someday but it sounds like it's a trip you have to save up for.
I’m with you. I typically don’t eat at US restaurants when I travel but I may have a US meal (if that makes sense). But I’m definitely grabbing some local food on multiple occasions. Thanks for watching!
Bermudian here! Glad you had a great time. All the tips you listed were superb and valid, especially the transportation. 1. In regards to food, yes KFC is the only remaining US food chain due to the Prohibited Restaurants Act which prevents any international fast food chain to be set up on the island. If you're looking for a fish sandwich the best places in my opinion are; Cafe Ole located near Crystal Caves and Rosas Cantina on front street. Art Mels (a prominent place to get fish) in 2021 has reduced in quality due to change of ownership within the business. 2. Transportation wise, busses and walking are the go-to's. I recommend against renting scooters if you are not very confident or a new rider. Driving on the left side is a learning hill and sometimes the round-a-bouts can be intimidating. In doubt, always look to the right. But please be careful when riding scooters people, they only go so fast and the natives like to overtake on the already narrow and compact roads which is a little daunting. 3. Have fun and wear your masks!
Look at you coming through with the recommendations! Thanks for these! And the bus was definitely a great way to get around! And yes please wear a mask 😷!
Bermuda is a beautiful country. I went on a cruise that stopped in Bermuda and I really didn’t have a chance to explore the island like I should’ve. I agree...the food is excellent!
I haven’t been to Barbados yet so I can’t comment on that. But if I had to choose between Brazil and Bermuda, I would choose Brazil. It’s a big country so there is a lot more things to see and do. You can get beach, city, waterfalls or forests throughout the country.
Lol it’s like you know it’s there but never really have to plan it out. I was forced to think here as I had to reserve something due to the pandemic. And I quickly found out transportation needed more planning.
I would love to visit Bermuda one day! Hope that we'll be able to travel again soon... I miss it so much! Everything you said was so helpful and I'm glad that Bermuda is safe for female solo travelers, it's really important. Thank you so much for sharing! :)
Hi Kita! My husband and I have booked our flight to Bermuda in July 2022. This video has given us insight as to what to expect during our travels to Bermuda. Thank you so much! 😊
I hope you planned it around the end of July. We have a holiday period called Cupmatch/Emancipation Day. It’s a long weekend of fun - a two day cricket match between the east and west. The island is divided during this time of course in good fun. Check it out.
I have two things on my bucket list and one of them is trying different foods from all around the world. So thanks for letting me know that their food is worth trying. And I feel if you are traveling to that country you should eat their food I get you want to stay to your fast food but why not try it when you’re in the country LOL!!!
I feel you!! Like we are somewhere new let’s not try to have McDonald’s. Even some McDonald’s outside the US do have very different menus which is interesting to look at.
Ive always wanted to go to Bermuda. It’s good to know the currency is 1:1 I love that you don’t have to convert. It’s also good to know there isn’t ride sharing available.
We've been to Bermuda three times, on NCL cruises from Boston,MA. The ship gets to port on Sunday about 1:00 p.m. It leaves port on Tuesday about 4,5:00 p.m. NCL has a free ferry to St Georges twice a day. Be aware some places are closed on Sundays.
I never understand why people travel abroad but still choose to have foods from back home. I am glad to hear there that there is so much great and new food there. Excellent info shared here and really detailed. I definitely hope to check our Bermuda one day, I have a friend who lives and works there actually.
Yeah I don’t get it either. I mean I have but it was usually when I was somewhere for a long time and it was convenient. Or out of seeing the difference in menus lol. But I wouldn’t just try to eat food from home. That’s part of the entire journey! And omg I hope you get to Bermuda one especially since you know someone there. That makes it even better!
I went to Bermuda May 2021 for 3 day weekend getaway I must say this is pretty accurate with the rentals including the travel solo comment as I was with my cousin but I left her at room walked alone 2/3 blocks to the beach and felt safe in south Hampton. Stayed at Airbnb Met a local couple while walking to bus stop who were soooo friendly they end up taking us on a personal tour of Hamilton. I planned food menu as I do at home then got my airport driver to stop at local grocery store upon my arrival to get some basics for breakfast / lunch/ dinner I can cook on my own plus the local market had a resonable price awesome local dishes on the buffet price was by the pound so I had like 2 days of food under $30 plus my basic groceries and was round about $60 like eggs bread juice butter coffee bagels milk lunch meat/ cheese etc…I believe we saved some money this way. Alcohol I believe was reasonably priced as I bought 2/3 bottles to make mixed drinks. Only went out to eat dinner or lunch as desired as I had the option to cook myself. I took ferry from south Hamilton to North Hamilton then switched to local bus from North back to south. local bus goes from one end of island to the other if you don’t want to do ferry. I was walking distance to 2 beaches I enjoyed but took bus to horseshoe bay beach cause that was a 20 min walk from us and I wasn’t up for it with all the hills in South Hampton. I went during Covid so some things were closed I kept in touch with the locals I met and will be making my way back to visit them very soon. If your a party person it’s best to UA-cam the clubs and bars in North Hamilton to get an idea of where you’d like to go. The locals took us on a tour of the party area but again it was during Covid so most were closed and consider bus route/ schedule as a taxi to and from club will be pricey or make arrangements with your airport driver. My Airbnb host recommended my driver who was amazingly helpful and friendly and gave us great tips. I can’t remember name of his company but his name what’sApp number Troy Glasgow 1-441-717-0837. I saved for future reference. Tell him Jackie sent you lol.
YESSSSSSSSS to this comment!!! I absolutely love how you shared your experience! And that is definitely key in Bermuda is to cook your own meals and I'm glad you had your driver stop at the store to get those items so you didn't have to worry about that. And that you for the recommendation for the driver!
Love that the vegan burger is the one that you think about first! We also use Airbnbs- we pretty much live in them full-time. If you stay somewhere for a month, you can get a serious discount too- which is what we usually do. Sometimes up to 60% off! So interesting that you can't rent cars there, but those Twizzies look awesome!
Omg!!! I just learned about that discount for extended stays in Airbnb’s recently. It definitely has me planning for a future adventure!!! And yes that vegan burger was amazing! I haven’t had one that good anywhere. I hope they keep it on the menu.
I have only ever been to Bermuda on a cruise and we weren't there long. I would love to get to go and spend time exploring more by actually staying there. Thanks for all these great tips! Glad to know you felt safe, because I like to go off on my own, even when traveling with my husband or as a group.
This is such a good idea for traveler so they can plan properly and know what to expect esp. Bermuda, heard the place is beautiful, hope to be able to travel there someday💖
I have always been curious about Bermuda so this is super helpful. I love your videos of you exploring the places but all this practical information is also super useful. Thank you so much for taking the time to tell us about this awesome travel spot
Bermuda sounds like an intimidating place to visit but I know the views are worth it! I'll have to watch your other videos for more info! Thanks for the solo traveling tip! I'm happy to hear that you felt safe ♥️
It was definitely worth it! Yes, please check out the other videos. You can see them in my playlist here: ua-cam.com/play/PLh1KljmGnz4k32L4ssBmVKQ9Wv0P4NeRC.html. Thanks for watching!
Great tips and recommendations!! I'm trying to travel as many places as possible and Bermuda is def on my list!! Good to know in advance about the exchange rate and pricing!!💕
Thank you for sharing.. Bermuda is on my list for sure. Cant wait to be able to travel regularly again. Thanks for the tips especially on solo traveling. I have a set travel group but i definitely want to take the leap and travel solo
You saving me my coins!!! Would love to experience the tasty food because I try not to eat any chain fast food because you can get that in the US. But wow $65 for one way 20 mins that insane. This is helpful info and I definitely need to know the safety of traveling alone.
I have been watching some videos about Bermuda these days, but your way of presenting the ideas is much more helpful and informative. Is there anything we should be aware of? Like scammer or robber? Hope that they will soon have lift or Uber to travel around the town. The price there is so high. Thank you for sharing all great tips.
I'm glad you found this helpful! For the most part, Bermuda is pretty safe. I didn't have to worry about any scams or robbery. But my friend who took me around one evening showed me a street in the parish of Hamilton (north of the bus station) that isn't safe. But it is literally just that area and nowhere else. I walked everywhere with no concerns! Thanks for watching!
I was very impressed that there isn’t any big fast food chains there! Loved it! And yes the no car rental thing was a new one for me! Thanks for watching!
bermuda is definitely on our radar to visit. we had planned to visit last year via a cruise but now we are looking to fly in sometime this year. - addy
Man I never knew it could be so expensive to go there. Thanks for sharing because I wouldve been in a pickle if I went and didn't know a few things about Bermuda.
I really want to go back to Bermuda. These tips are very helpful. We took the bus a lot when we were there and it was so easy. We also took the ferry. The moped rentals were another option that looked more affordable.
Bermuda was amazing! I took the bus a lot as well. I had to document the entire details about that in a separate video. But I went during the pandemic, so I literally walked up to everything with no line lol. I’m going to be insulted when I go post pandemic lol.
Welp. Let me start saving my coins now 😂. I had no idea it was so expensive. I find it interesting island countries import most of their goods when historically they had resources there but were extracted. I would love to come to Bermuda and St. Martin. Thank you for sharing.
Since we cruised this area, we didn't get a chance to try a lot of food. I did get some conch though. I like different hotels and will stay in a nice AirBNB. The money is a very important tip. You can lose a lot if you don't know their currency.
Yes you can! I have seen people struggle with money in another country before and it definitely is a concern for me to educate people. Thanks for watching!
Just know it’s cold and windy in March. I’m here now having the best time that I can despite the weather. We can’t control the weather but you need more clothes on than off.
As. A traveler this was super helpful! I also always look for chain hotels whenever I travel so this was good to know!! Bermudas on my list lol but I may have to wait for this trip
I can't wait for the day I'm able to travel around the world with my kids. I'm honestly don't feel comfortable travel now because my anxiety will be through the rough. But like always the helpful tips are just on point. I loved whenbyou vist that crystal like or Ice cave I can't remember which one it was.
Your girl will be ready! She seems like she is always ready for the camera and ready to make moves! And yes it was a crystal cave! I loved it! Thanks for watching!
So interesting to know facts right before we travel! Especially that solo travel for women is also so safe, it really encourages one to travel to Bermuda! Thanks for the tips on having a private taxi too! 👌😍
Someone else told me about Swizzle or I saw it. But the person that was taking me around took me to other places. Oh wait…this is the place near the Crystal Caves? Yeah I feel like this place wasn’t open when I went.
The twizzy reminds me of those things mall cops ride!😆 I personally wanna try riding it! Driving on the left can be very confusing; normal driving is hard enough!😳
Omg that’s exactly what it looks like! Girl I was definitely trying that small thing and having to drive on the left lol. A whole mess in the making lol.
It is a chain but not popular and it doesn’t have hotels throughout. When I say popular chains, I’m referring to very popular ones like Hilton, IHG, Marriott where there are hotels everywhere and you are able to use points and easily earn them for stays. The Fairmont Group is a luxury chain which does NOT have hotels everywhere.
Traveling out of the country was a lot for sure. And I definitely got anxious the first time I did it. I documented the experience to Bermuda here: ua-cam.com/video/4Vs1W3GzwlQ/v-deo.html. Thanks for watching!
I’ve never been to Bermuda but would like to go. These are great tips. Heads up the Bermudian Beach Resort became part of Hilton last year. Glad to know US dollars are exchangeable with Bermudian currency. Ouch, that shuttle is expensive and what no car rentals? 😢
I’m glad you enjoyed the tips. And unfortunately, if you go on Hilton’s site (as I did see that hotel was supposed to be part of the chain) it says there are no hotels in that area. The resort, if you visit the website, are looking for you to buy condos!!! Which I definitely wasn’t not doing lol. Nowhere can you rent one (at least for now) and use points. Smh 🤦🏽♀️.
the best part of travelling is trying all new things! I couldn’t imagine relying on the food/accommodations I’m used to. Can’t wait to start travelling again🤩✈️
I would love to visit Bermuda but man its expensive. I never knew that you drive on the left side of the road there, that would be hard for me to get used to.
Yes it is safe to fly there. At least in my experience I was safe and felt safe. I flew Delta there and at the time (in relation to the pandemic), the middle seats were blocked. They no longer do this. And the summer time through early fall is best (but beware of hurricane season). And per locals, early November is even decent. But in late November when I went it was very windy yet still pretty!
As a Bermudian, when shopping in the stores, you can ask the cashier if they can give you American change and they will certainly oblige you. And yes the the dollar is "Bermudian" dollar. Bermuda is beautiful bu very expensive so if you are planning to come, make sure you ave sufficient funds. when I say, expensive, it is expensive.
I want to travel around the world and I heard that Bermuda was a beautiful place but expensive so I would have to come with the coins 😂😂 I’m a foodie so that would be a budget on its on. 🥰😜
From what I have seen, the bikes are all single riding bikes (you can check out Pedego here: pedegoelectricbikes.com/dealers/bermuda/). A Twizzy electric car may be a better option as two people can sit inside of this electric car (www.gotobermuda.com/inspiration/article/bermuda-car-rental-options).
I’m not an expert on Bermuda’s visa process as I only went there for tourism from the US. But it looks like it depends on how long you are staying and what you will be doing. You may learn more here: www.gov.bm/bermuda-entry-visas or call (441) 295-5151 x1378.
I'm so sorry I have the caption feature on. Did you go during the pandemic? If so, How did the Covid testing go for you there? I read that there is a requirement to get tested every 4 , 8 and 14 days I believe. Oh, and also making sure your test is negative upon arrival.
Hello! Thanks for watching. Yes I did visit during the pandemic which I outlined in this video: ua-cam.com/video/4Vs1W3GzwlQ/v-deo.html. Bermuda is very strict about COVID and testing. I left on my 4th day, so I didn’t have to do the 4th day of testing. But if that is something that is required for you, it will be arranged on testing time with the Bermudian government. Lastly, be sure to check out their website as policies tend to change frequently during this time: www.gov.bm/coronavirus-travellers.
Taxis will definitely add up if that is what you plan to use in Bermuda. Here is some information about taxis: "All Bermuda taxis are fitted with a meter and rates are fixed by the government. Taxis in Bermuda operate from a standard rate: RATE 1 - For 1 to 4 passengers the rate is $2.75 per mile. The meter starts at $5.15 RATE 3 -For 5-7 passengers the rate $3.50 per mile. The meter starts at $6.45 Note: Taxi rates are 25% higher (50% for 5 - 7 passengers) between 12am - 6am, and all day on Sundays and public holidays. Luggage is an additional $1 per piece. Taxis can also be hired by the hour for sightseeing. Rates are $50 per hour (1-4 passengers) and $70 per hour (5-7 passengers)." - www.bermuda4u.com/transport/taxis/ & bermudaairport.com/at-the-airport/ground-transport-and-parking/
@@KitatheExplorer Hello. I just watched your very informative video of Bermuda. Great video. Just to add to what you said about airport transportation, a regular taxi would be $45.00 from the airport to the Hamilton Princess.
Good to know. I know for some people from here (the US), they look for familiar places like McDonald’s (in which I don’t even eat here lol). But that is why I mentioned that topic.
@@KitatheExplorer for beaches I recommend southlands. On south shore. It is usually quiet. Just ask a taxi driver or anyone for directions. Bermudians are nice to tourists
Hello I'm Chrissy & I'm from Baltimore Maryland I want you & everybody to hear me because of Dr. King's I have a dream speech I dreamed of traveling the 🌎 meet & greet people I dreamed of being an Entrepreneur, Filmmaker, Cartoonist, Playwright, Producer, & Actress. I really want to come to 🇧🇲🇧🇲 I never been to 🇧🇲 I never met people from there I can't wait for the excitement meet people from 🇧🇲 I want to learn 🇧🇲 slang I want friends from there as well
Bermuda is on my list of places to visit. The fresh seafood and local food sound amazing and those pink sand beaches are calling out to me!
Omg the beach was my selling point and the best part of the trip! I literally can sit on the beach all day!
Glad you enjoy my country. Come back again.
Thank you! I hope to get back one day!
I cannot wait to travel again! I would love to go to Bermuda one day...anywhere that has a beautiful beach! These are great tips!
I know! I can't wait to get to a beach! Its so peaceful for me! Glad you found these tips useful! Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching!
Bermudian here! Glad you had a great time. All the tips you listed were superb and valid, especially the transportation.
1. In regards to food, yes KFC is the only remaining US food chain due to the Prohibited Restaurants Act which prevents any international fast food chain to be set up on the island. If you're looking for a fish sandwich the best places in my opinion are; Cafe Ole located near Crystal Caves and Rosas Cantina on front street.

2. Transportation wise, busses and walking are the go-to's. I recommend against renting scooters if you are not very confident or a new rider. Driving on the left side is a learning hill and sometimes the round-a-bouts can be intimidating. In doubt, always look to the right. But please be careful when riding scooters people, they only go so fast and the natives like to overtake on the already narrow and compact roads which is a little daunting.
3. Have fun and wear your masks!

Bermuda is a beautiful country. I went on a cruise that stopped in Bermuda and I really didn’t have a chance to explore the island like I should’ve. I agree...the food is excellent!
That was a nice place to stop at!! Thanks for watching!
This is definitely a destination on my bucket list. That's for the heads up on the prices of things. These are import things to know.
I’m glad you found this helpful!!! Thanks for watching!
I've gone to Bermuda twice! It really is a small island. Absolutely beautiful. I'd love to golf there!
Omg there are so many great spots for golfing there! The island is gorgeous! Thanks for watching!
Hello, I'm debating on Bermuda, Barbados, or Rio de Janeiro 🎉. What are your thoughts? Sending love from Miami Dade 🌞🌴
I haven’t been to Barbados yet so I can’t comment on that. But if I had to choose between Brazil and Bermuda, I would choose Brazil. It’s a big country so there is a lot more things to see and do. You can get beach, city, waterfalls or forests throughout the country.
Great tips!! I love how you highlighted transportation because I literally never think about that when I’m traveling to a new place lol
Lol it’s like you know it’s there but never really have to plan it out. I was forced to think here as I had to reserve something due to the pandemic. And I quickly found out transportation needed more planning.

It’s cool that the currencies have a 1 to 1 ratio. But I’m sure that was probably confusing deceiving them both in the same transaction
Yeah it was especially the first time. It throws you giving one currency and getting back something different.
I have been watching some videos about Bermuda these days, but your way of presenting the ideas is much more helpful and informative. Is there anything we should be aware of? Like scammer or robber? Hope that they will soon have lift or Uber to travel around the town. The price there is so high. Thank you for sharing all great tips.
I'm glad you found this helpful! For the most part, Bermuda is pretty safe. I didn't have to worry about any scams or robbery. But my friend who took me around one evening showed me a street in the parish of Hamilton (north of the bus station) that isn't safe. But it is literally just that area and nowhere else. I walked everywhere with no concerns! Thanks for watching!
That vegan burger does look good! I like that there aren't any big Fast Food chains there, always good to try the local food!
Thats so interesting that you can't rent a car out there!
I was very impressed that there isn’t any big fast food chains there! Loved it! And yes the no car rental thing was a new one for me! Thanks for watching!
bermuda is definitely on our radar to visit. we had planned to visit last year via a cruise but now we are looking to fly in sometime this year. - addy
It is definitely worth a visit! I hope this video will help with your planning!
Man I never knew it could be so expensive to go there. Thanks for sharing because I wouldve been in a pickle if I went and didn't know a few things about Bermuda.
That’s exactly why I had to share! Thanks for watching!
Nice! Very imformative, gotta get myself to Bermuda!
You definitely need to go one day! Thanks for watching!
I really want to go back to Bermuda. These tips are very helpful. We took the bus a lot when we were there and it was so easy. We also took the ferry. The moped rentals were another option that looked more affordable.
Bermuda was amazing! I took the bus a lot as well. I had to document the entire details about that in a separate video. But I went during the pandemic, so I literally walked up to everything with no line lol. I’m going to be insulted when I go post pandemic lol.
@@KitatheExplorer pandemic travel has been the most calm for me due to less people
You and me both! I miss pandemic travel days now!
Welp. Let me start saving my coins now 😂. I had no idea it was so expensive. I find it interesting island countries import most of their goods when historically they had resources there but were extracted. I would love to come to Bermuda and St. Martin. Thank you for sharing.
You are right! I wonder what the history behind all of that. But yes sis, save your coins!
Great informative Video 👌Thanks
You’re welcome!
Since we cruised this area, we didn't get a chance to try a lot of food. I did get some conch though. I like different hotels and will stay in a nice AirBNB. The money is a very important tip. You can lose a lot if you don't know their currency.
Yes you can! I have seen people struggle with money in another country before and it definitely is a concern for me to educate people. Thanks for watching!
Just know it’s cold and windy in March. I’m here now having the best time that I can despite the weather. We can’t control the weather but you need more clothes on than off.
Oh gosh that’s how it was when I went in November very windy. Making it cold. Good to know it’s like that in March as well. Thanks for sharing.
As. A traveler this was super helpful! I also always look for chain hotels whenever I travel so this was good to know!! Bermudas on my list lol but I may have to wait for this trip
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
I can't wait for the day I'm able to travel around the world with my kids. I'm honestly don't feel comfortable travel now because my anxiety will be through the rough. But like always the helpful tips are just on point. I loved whenbyou vist that crystal like or Ice cave I can't remember which one it was.
Your girl will be ready! She seems like she is always ready for the camera and ready to make moves! And yes it was a crystal cave! I loved it! Thanks for watching!
So interesting to know facts right before we travel! Especially that solo travel for women is also so safe, it really encourages one to travel to Bermuda! Thanks for the tips on having a private taxi too! 👌😍
I’m glad you found this encouraging! Thanks for watching!
Wow they are expensive. But I bet it's really beautiful there. This is great info to know if I ever decide to go there.
It was so expensive! But it was extremely beautiful! But I’m glad you found this helpful! Thanks for watching!
And I recommend trying a swizzle. It’s a great drink made in most restaurants and bars
Someone else told me about Swizzle or I saw it. But the person that was taking me around took me to other places. Oh wait…this is the place near the Crystal Caves? Yeah I feel like this place wasn’t open when I went.
@@KitatheExplorer yeah so there is a restaurant called swizzle who made the drink famous here. But most places sell their own swizzle.
@@KitatheExplorer but the swizzle from swizzle is better than most
Good to know!
This was a really informative video! I didn’t realize Bermuda was so expensive.
I'm glad you found this video informative! Thanks for watching!
The twizzy reminds me of those things mall cops ride!😆 I personally wanna try riding it! Driving on the left can be very confusing; normal driving is hard enough!😳
Omg that’s exactly what it looks like! Girl I was definitely trying that small thing and having to drive on the left lol. A whole mess in the making lol.
The hamilton princess is apart of the fairmont group that’s one chain.
It is a chain but not popular and it doesn’t have hotels throughout. When I say popular chains, I’m referring to very popular ones like Hilton, IHG, Marriott where there are hotels everywhere and you are able to use points and easily earn them for stays. The Fairmont Group is a luxury chain which does NOT have hotels everywhere.
This video gets me so excited to travel again 😍 how did you travel out of the county during the pandemic ?
Traveling out of the country was a lot for sure. And I definitely got anxious the first time I did it. I documented the experience to Bermuda here: ua-cam.com/video/4Vs1W3GzwlQ/v-deo.html.
Thanks for watching!
Definitely a great video to watch!
Thank you for your review!!
I’ve never been to Bermuda but would like to go. These are great tips. Heads up the Bermudian Beach Resort became part of Hilton last year. Glad to know US dollars are exchangeable with Bermudian currency. Ouch, that shuttle is expensive and what no car rentals? 😢
I’m glad you enjoyed the tips. And unfortunately, if you go on Hilton’s site (as I did see that hotel was supposed to be part of the chain) it says there are no hotels in that area. The resort, if you visit the website, are looking for you to buy condos!!! Which I definitely wasn’t not doing lol. Nowhere can you rent one (at least for now) and use points. Smh 🤦🏽♀️.
@@KitatheExplorer Well that's a bummer. 😢
@@TravelingWellForLess yes it is...sigh.
Only residents can use cars, and only one per household. Hence, the prolific scooters.
I would love to visit Bermuda
I hope you get to visit Bermuda one day.
I’ve definitely heard that about the cost!
Yes it is expensive!
So many great tips!
Glad you like them!
The fact that you can’t rent a car may make it better because you’ll be able to ride a bike and explore more. I’d love to visit 🌸
I agree! You are able to see more of what is going without renting a car! I hope you visit one day!
I see you with the Browns jersey. Lets gooooooooo
Ayeeee!!! Go Browns (next year)!
the best part of travelling is trying all new things! I couldn’t imagine relying on the food/accommodations I’m used to. Can’t wait to start travelling again🤩✈️
You and me both! Thanks for watching!
I would love to visit Bermuda but man its expensive. I never knew that you drive on the left side of the road there, that would be hard for me to get used to.
Same here! That's why I just took the bus, walked or rode around with a friend! Thanks for watching!
Definitely a great intro to bermuda tho ❤️🇧🇲
Thank you!
@@KitatheExplorer no problem
Thank You.
You're welcome
Great list! Did you really like wahoo’s better than woodys tho?? 😉
Uh oh do I sense a slight rivalry here lol. But I didn’t make it to Woody’s. We didn’t go there.
@@KitatheExplorer 😂😂 east vs west! Of you ever come back try woodys
@@OmarJames Ok, I'm going to have to try Woodys next time! I already looked at the site and menu lol!!!
Is it save to fly there? How was your flight? When is the best time of the year to fly there?
Yes it is safe to fly there. At least in my experience I was safe and felt safe. I flew Delta there and at the time (in relation to the pandemic), the middle seats were blocked. They no longer do this.
And the summer time through early fall is best (but beware of hurricane season). And per locals, early November is even decent. But in late November when I went it was very windy yet still pretty!
Yes! Very expensive I went to get groceries & I was literally shocked .One of the items that blew my mind was $9 for a box of cereal 👎🏽
See that’s crazy. I walked right past the grocery store as I didn’t even want to see those prices.
@@KitatheExplorer Yup, my homeeee!
Mr. Chicken is the restaurant fast food. I got a chance to met the owner 😮
That’s great you were able to meet the owner!
Oh wow! I didnt think it would be so expensive to visit there! Thank you so much! This is very informational!☺️💕
I’m glad you found this informative! Thanks for watching!
I love your video
Thank you!
As a Bermudian, when shopping in the stores, you can ask the cashier if they can give you American change and they will certainly oblige you. And yes the the dollar is "Bermudian" dollar. Bermuda is beautiful bu very expensive so if you are planning to come, make sure you ave sufficient funds. when I say, expensive, it is expensive.
Yes you definitely have to go to Bermuda with sufficient funds because it is EXPENSIVE there!
I want to travel around the world and I heard that Bermuda was a beautiful place but expensive so I would have to come with the coins 😂😂 I’m a foodie so that would be a budget on its on. 🥰😜
I was about to say you could save on Bermuda by bringing some snacks for breakfast. But that doesn’t sound like an option lol. Thanks for watching!
I have one question about the bikes, with kids. Does the kid stay with you or the bike?
From what I have seen, the bikes are all single riding bikes (you can check out Pedego here: pedegoelectricbikes.com/dealers/bermuda/). A Twizzy electric car may be a better option as two people can sit inside of this electric car (www.gotobermuda.com/inspiration/article/bermuda-car-rental-options).
What was the name of the car company that pickup you up from the airport?
It was Quality Transport.
My husband working from Bermuda.... How to I come this time which vissa suitable for me
I’m not an expert on Bermuda’s visa process as I only went there for tourism from the US. But it looks like it depends on how long you are staying and what you will be doing. You may learn more here: www.gov.bm/bermuda-entry-visas or call (441) 295-5151 x1378.
I'm so sorry I have the caption feature on. Did you go during the pandemic?
If so,
How did the Covid testing go for you there? I read that there is a requirement to get tested every 4 , 8 and 14 days I believe. Oh, and also making sure your test is negative upon arrival.
Hello! Thanks for watching. Yes I did visit during the pandemic which I outlined in this video: ua-cam.com/video/4Vs1W3GzwlQ/v-deo.html.
Bermuda is very strict about COVID and testing. I left on my 4th day, so I didn’t have to do the 4th day of testing. But if that is something that is required for you, it will be arranged on testing time with the Bermudian government.
Lastly, be sure to check out their website as policies tend to change frequently during this time: www.gov.bm/coronavirus-travellers.
Bermuda now has a Marriott hotel!
OMG YESSSSS! Excellent update!
I heard that Bermuda is pretty price. I have a college friend who is from there.
Yeah I almost had a heart attack when my friend there told me how much it cost to fill a car up with gas.
i don’t think the taxis are that expensive are they?
Taxis will definitely add up if that is what you plan to use in Bermuda. Here is some information about taxis:
"All Bermuda taxis are fitted with a meter and rates are fixed by the government. Taxis in Bermuda operate from a standard rate:
RATE 1 - For 1 to 4 passengers the rate is $2.75 per mile. The meter starts at $5.15
RATE 3 -For 5-7 passengers the rate $3.50 per mile. The meter starts at $6.45
Note: Taxi rates are 25% higher (50% for 5 - 7 passengers) between 12am - 6am, and all day on Sundays and public holidays.
Luggage is an additional $1 per piece.
Taxis can also be hired by the hour for sightseeing. Rates are $50 per hour (1-4 passengers) and $70 per hour (5-7 passengers)." - www.bermuda4u.com/transport/taxis/ & bermudaairport.com/at-the-airport/ground-transport-and-parking/
Is there Nigerian nurses in Bermuda
I’m not sure as I’m not in that field. I recommend trying to search threads on Quora or Reddit or connecting with a local nurse group to find out.
Guest houses are cheaper and sometimes better
I agree. At times they can be better. But not everyone is always comfortable with staying at a guest house.
@@KitatheExplorer yeah ofc. It’s whatever their preference is.
Great video, ugly jersey though - coming from a Steeler Fan. If you know you know.
Uh oh!!! Not a Steelers fan here lol!
65 bucks for a 20-minute cab ride expensive. Try 95 bucks for a 15-minute cab ride in Cancun from the airport
Yes $65 is definitely a lot for a 10 minute cab ride and 95 is a lot for 15 minutes. Both are unreasonable.
@@KitatheExplorer Hello. I just watched your very informative video of Bermuda. Great video. Just to add to what you said about airport transportation, a regular taxi would be $45.00 from the airport to the Hamilton Princess.
Thanks for sharing this information!
Ice queen is our McDonald’s
Good to know. I know for some people from here (the US), they look for familiar places like McDonald’s (in which I don’t even eat here lol). But that is why I mentioned that topic.
@@KitatheExplorer yeah I understand lol I’ve had plenty of tourists ask me where the McDonalds is 😂
@@KitatheExplorer for beaches I recommend southlands. On south shore. It is usually quiet. Just ask a taxi driver or anyone for directions. Bermudians are nice to tourists
LOL see!!! I don't even search for McDonald's here, I definitely don't want to in another country (unless I'm with someone who wants to go).
@@KitatheExplorer I ate at McDonalds once and didn’t like it so I have never been to any since lol
Hello I'm Chrissy & I'm from Baltimore Maryland I want you & everybody to hear me because of Dr. King's I have a dream speech I dreamed of traveling the 🌎 meet & greet people I dreamed of being an Entrepreneur, Filmmaker, Cartoonist, Playwright, Producer, & Actress.

I hope you get to go to Bermuda and do everything you would like to do. Thanks for watching!
@@KitatheExplorer I want this to be my opportunity
I hate traveling and the people i travel with want American food or restaurants
Yeah I understand if that’s all that is available. But you have to be able to indulge in something local.
Thats crazy u can’t rent a car
Right!!! That could definitely be a huge negative for some.
