5.00Mark was a fun and interesting guide. I have been to Bahamas many times but all the spots he took us, I had never been. Food was delicious. We especially loved the fish tacos and Conch Fritters. If you want to see some off the beaten path sites while you are in Nassau and try some delicious bahamian food, this is the perfect tour. We loved every minute!
Great break from touristy things

5.00Our tour was amazing! Our guide, Lelly, was amazing and shared so many fun facts and history about the area. We were the only ones on the tour (my mom and I), so it felt very personal, and we were able to get a good insight into the true culture. The food was delicious, and I would definitely book again!
Great food tasting tour!

5.00We had so much fun! The meeting spot was exactly where they said it would be, with the name of the tour on a sign. Our guide, Pierre, met us there when we arrived. Pierre was very friendly and personable, we immediately felt comfortable, like hanging out with a friend. ALL the food we tasted was amazing, and there is a decent amount so come hungry! One full sized drink and a couple of samples to taste. All the stops were very organized and Pierre took care of everything, we just had to eat😋. As far as sight seeing, Pierre pointed out important/interesting buildings as we walked and gave lots of interesting facts, but this is more about the food than the sights. There's a good amount of walking, wear comfortable shoes and bring water. A couple of bathrooms along the way too, if thats important. This is a great way to spend 2-3 hours downtown!
The perfect Nassau history, food, and drink experience!

5.00I could not speak more highly of this tour. The experience included several food and drink tastings, as well as stops at a chocolate factory, local hotel, rum distillery, and more. Our guide, Leli (I hope I spelled that right), was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable on Bahamian/Nassau history and culture. This was a stop on our cruise, and was by far our favorite part of our week-long trip. I absolutely recommend this tour!
Sweet guide and history with bites/sips

4.00Many stops, some very busy and touristy. Others better. First place took an hour and was a heavy meal then a lot of walking. One place was “closed” ? For renovations so didn’t see inside Greycliffe, looked very nice though. Could have left chocolate stop off, shoulder to shoulder inside as well as the street. Distillery was good, liked to have spent more time for a real drink there, sample was yummy as well as the taco. Last stop least fav, not appetizing and bathroom was yuck, but was facilities at every stop. Did this same tour few years ago and was bit better , but this was entertaining with history and guide sweet.
Delicious and impressive tour

5.00Princess guided us on this tour and we were very impressed! Each stop provided a delicious sample of local favorites and Princess answered all of our questions about the island's history. By the end of the tour we were pleasantly filled but not overfilled and we ended early enough to continue exploring downtown on our own. Princess gave us some great ideas about what we should see and do with our remaining days on the island. We highly recommend this tour and plan to book again when we return with our kids. Be aware that some of the walking included inclines, stairs, and narrow sidewalks/no sidewalks depending on the terrain. It was fine for my husband and I but those with mobility concerns may reconsider. However, each food stop would make a delicious destination for those who want to partake but have physical limitations.
Fun Food and Drinks! What more could you want!!

5.00Hands down this was the best Food tour we’ve had in a while. The guide was friendly and professional. We had so much wonderful food and got to learn so much about the history and culture. Highly recommend this tour, they did an amazing job. We traveled with a child and my mom and both really had a great time. The walking wasn’t too bad because they (kid and grandma) didn’t whine about it - lol. Definitely take this tour, it was awesome.
Great experience highly recommend
