Bermuda is an easy destination in most respects and an expensive one in the single respect that matters most to an older traveler, and the gap between those two things is what this guide is about.
Bermuda does not permit tourists to drive, so the accessible itinerary and the ordinary one are built from exactly the same components, and the questions a disabled traveler needs answered are the ones this guide identifies rather than answers.
A visitor tracing family or ancestral connection to Bermuda deserves institutions rather than atmosphere, so this guide names the ones in its register and is explicit about the history it has no source for.
This guide covers the one Bermudian celebration the official record describes, on the date the Government of Bermuda sets, and says plainly that it is the only one it can source.
Several things a visitor might do without thinking are offenses in Bermuda, and one question about who may marry has an answer that both of the obvious summaries get wrong.
