Marty :

Bermuda is a beautiful country - with a fabulous friendly population.

Ray :

I have just found out that cruise ships will no longer be docking in Hamilton on a regular basis from 2008. Having lived in Bermuda many years ago and since visited as a tourist, in my opinion this is a huge mistake. I honestly do not believe traders on Front Street will increase business from this move but on the contrary get even less from cruise ship business. Maybe a realignment of hotel tariffs would do more to generate business. For many people, myself included, the only affordable way to see Bermuda is on board a cruise ship, even as in my case if it means flying to New York from the UK first.

Editor :

Visitors are only restricted by the number of hotel rooms (which has decreased in recent years due to several large hotels closing). The relatively high cost of living/flights/hotels currently serves as an effective brake. Cruise ships dock in port rather than at sea, again limiting the amount of cruise ship visitors.

Claire McEwan :

Hi just wondering if you know whether the visitor numbers to bermuda are restricted whether there are any controls in place to encourage sustainable tourism like Bhutan?

Marsha F :

Dear Editor -- thank you! Yes, went to bermuda ... online for a wealth of informtion!
Regards.

Editor :

Marsha. There were several US Navy bases in Bermuda. The Bermuda Online site is the best source of information for this. I think you'll find all the info you need there.

Marsha F :

I was born on the US Navy Base in Bermuda; 1956. Finally planning a trip with my husband next Spring. Family left for the States in 1958. Have some pictures and lots of stories. Is the Bermuda Airport on the site of the old US Navy Base? Really looking forward to our trip! Thanks!

Another Bill :

I was stationed at Kindley in the '60s. Turned 21 in a bar at Flatts. I didn't really appreciate Bermuda while there but always missed it after I left. My wife & I cruised back but arrived on 9/11. Too many restrictions and too crowded because of the planes that were diverted
from US airports. Still had a wonderful time. Now we are coming back in November, have the bus and ferry schedules and are planning to see as much as we can in 4 days.

Editor :

Sherrie. The Railway Trail is marked on the map from the Bermuda Department of Tourism (downloadable on this page). All attractions are also included. For more information on these please read the relevant sections of this website.

Sherrie :

Is there a way to obtain an online version of the Railway Trail brochure/map? Thanks!

Editor :

This comment feature was put on the site to allow people to add useful information for tourists. It is not a forum for discussing moral issues or waging hate campaigns.

Bill :

An island with traditional moral values is where I want to spend my money. Gays don't have friends, they just have sodimizers.

Scott :

Because of the hate your people have toward gays, ie: Rosies Cruise, I will never travel to your little Island with little minds, and I will tell everybody I know not to visit your land of sadness!

Editor :

Until April 2007 the Visitor Information Centres were known as Visitor Service Bureau and were operated by the Chamber of Commerce. They are now run by 3 private companies; BermyNet, Cafe Latte and TMM Visitor Services.

Editor :

The Visitors' Service Bureau also sell Heritage Passports for $25. These give unlimited access to eight attractions (Zoo, Bermuda Maritime Museum, Verdmont, Tucker House, National Trust Museum, BUEI, Fort St Catherine, Bermuda National Gallery).
