Lisa was a fantastic,dynamic and knowledgeable guide. could not have asked for a better guide.
Captain Ron was amazing! The tour was a great introduction to Bahamian cuisine and history. The food and drinks were excellent and we got to experience several places in downtown that we wouldn't have found on our own. Highly recommend.
We had a fabulous time. We were in a small group (4), which made it very intimate and we were able to see more sights and learn more about Nassau and the Bahamas. Our guide was great and one could tell he loved talking about his country, customs, and traditions. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting. As we were on a cruise ship, the tour fit perfectly for us for our 1 day in port.
Our guide, Lisa, was fun, engaging and informative. We liked learning from her. And the food was great. Not sure they should be called tastes. It was like a full meal.
Lisa was fantastic, great fun and very knowledgeable
Captain Ron was the best!! So fun and informative!
Loved the fact that it was a small group so we got more attention and quicker service. I would have liked more time to take pics and enjoy each site because I did feel a bit rushed at times. The food and drinks were amazing!
Exceptional tour and guide! The food is excellent. 3 hours flew by and it will remain one of the highlights of our stay in the Bahamas. Thank you to Captain Ron for this very fun and enriching experience.
It was a great experience and fun way to learn about the Bahamas and get a taste of the local cuisine. Food and drinks were delicious! definitely recommend! Our tour guide Lisa was fantastic and hilarious. Very accommodating and offered great tips. 6/5!! Lisa for Prime Minister… paint the city pink!
