In the clip for the Amazon Prime show, Jeremy introduces the famous city saying: "It's a city named after General Nash, a big war hero, kicked the British out.
"You ended up with independence and how's that working out for you?"
His co-hosts James May and Richard Hammond were loving his joke and collapsed in laughter in the Grand Tour tent.
The rest of the trailer sees the trio take off to sunny Barbados where James is seen driving an old digger on a picture perfect beach.
Richard then accidentally drops the shell of a car off the pier proving that not everything goes to plan with the hilarious trio.

This isn't the first time Clarkson has risked offending a politician as last week he revealed the motoring show was almost banned from Stuttgart.
The former Top Gear host took a swipe at green party member Andreas Kasdorf as he claimed the show nearly got the boot from the bicycle-friendly city.
He went on to reveal they nearly had a huge change of plan because of a disagreement with pro-bicycle politician Kasdorf.
The host joked that he would not identify the man who tried to have the crew banned from filming in the city, and then flashed up a large picture of his face.

Clarkson said: "This week [the show] comes from Germany. Specifically we are in the city of Stuttgart, except we nearly weren't because one of your local green politicians tried to ban us from coming here.
"Now I don't want to embarrass the man on television so I've hidden his identity.
"I certainly don't want to tell you his name, which is ... Andreas Kasdorf.

During the new episode of the Amazon Prime programme, Richard Hammond was seen grinning ear-to-ear as he cruised around in a special armoured car.
But, when he pulled over to admire the view (and the Mad Max-esque vehicle), it suddenly bursts in to flames – thanks to his co-presenter pals.
“Good shot,” says Jez as they peer down on their confused pal.
