5.00Captain Eddie and First Mate Courtney gave our family the absolute best tour of the islands surrounding the Bahamas! From the moment they picked us up until they dropped us off, everything was top-notch. They never rushed us and took the time to share so much about Bahamian culture, history, and the beautiful islands. We loved seeing where the rich and famous live, and swimming with the pigs was an unforgettable experience! Courtney truly gave our kids the royal treatment. He was so kind, patient, and attentive, making sure they felt special the entire day. He even jumped off the boat and guided us on a private snorkeling tour, which was one of the highlights of our trip. Captain Eddie made safety a priority from start to finish, allowing us to relax and enjoy every moment. They provided water, all snorkeling gear, and exceptional service throughout the day. This was much more than a boat tour—it was an incredible experience our family will never forget. Thank you, Captain Eddie and Courtney, for making our Bahamas adventure so special. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the islands!

4.00Captain Paul and Zion were great! Pig experience was eh, it was literally just a pig farm on a beach and less of a natural native pig attraction.
Wonderful Experience

5.00We had a great half day on the water. Captain Ramsey did a wonderful job showing us all the adventure! We swam with the pigs and it was a very clean experience! Then we swam with turtles at turtle cay and ended our adventures on Rose Island with its breath taking views. It was a great half day trip. We experienced a lot! Highly recommended!!
JNC Tours Rose Island Snorkel Adventure

5.00We had the BEST time on our JNC Tours Rose Island snorkel adventure! Our Captain and his first mate were so friendly and took us to all the great spots for swimming with the pigs, snorkeling the reefs, and seeing the sea turtles. We had our own private family tour on their boat and it was so worth it! Great price compared to other tours with way more people. They did not rush us and let us take our time. They were so helpful with our 9 year old son as it was his first time snorkeling! We will definitely be back! Thank you!
Fantastic excursion!

5.00This was one of our favorite excursions ever. We had about a 10 minute walk from the ship to the dock where we were picked up. This is a private group excursion for a maximum of 8 people. We were picked up in a nice center console boat equipped with plenty of shade. Capt. Bodie and his assistant, Ahndin, are awesome. They had complimentary soft drinks, snacks, water and tum punch on board. Both were incredibly friendly, engaging and knowledgable. Our first stop was Mansa Beach, where we got to feed the pigs. They also had several water activities and refreshments. This optional experience was an additional $20 per person. If you opt out, you just go straight to the snorkeling experiences. Our first snorkeling spot was a reef. There water was gorgeous, And the reef was full of fish. There were lots of other boats around, but we were anchored on the edge of the reef and had plenty of room to ourselves. The last stop was at a turtle nesting area. There were again several boats around us. Nobody else appeared to have any luck spotting turtles, but Capt. Bodie has eagle eyes. He spotted a large turtle, and our group was able to jump in the water and swim around with it for a bit. At $800, this is a fantastic value if you have 8 in your group. Even with the extra for the pigs and gratuities, it was easily the best value for an excursion we’re had. Our whole party had a blast.
