A fairly new type of excursion for me. Mature & Paced. Well executed from beginning to end, with a delightful infinity pool and hot tub at the beautiful beach at the end. Includes all you need for a perfect day on the island: shopping, a beer stop & a white sand beach!
A fun and easy way to spend your day in Freeport

Our cruise line did not have a shore excursion that included a tour of the Bahamian Brewery, so I booked this through Tripadvior. (We have always enjoyed Sands beer when we have visited Nassau so were looking forward to the brewery tour). We were met on time, right outside the port terminal by Pat, one of the company owners. As we drove to the brewery, Pat gave us an informal tour of the area. At the brewery we were given a twenty minute tour of the facilities, and then taken to the tasting room where we sampled 7 of their current products. After the tasting we were allowed an additional half hour to drink full sized glasses of our favorites. (It’s amazing how friendly everyone is in your tour group by the end!) There is also a well stocked liquor store onsite where my husband purchased a nice bottle of rum for much less than it would have cost in the states. After leaving the Brewery, Pat took us to a beautiful beach hotel. The turquoise water was warm and crystal clear. . Use of the beach and facilities are included in the tour. Following the beach we were dropped off at Lucaya Marketplace. Despite a number of empty storefronts, there were still plenty of shops for browsing, as well as a straw market. (The island is still recovering from the devastation of Hurricane Dorian so not everything has reopened. Pat had recommended Zorba’s in the Marketplace for lunch and we were not disappointed. They specialize in both Greek and Bahamian food. We opted for the Bahamian lobster tails, which were wonderful. The entree was served with two sides but also included a very fresh and tasty salad, and a HUGE, just out of the oven, dinner roll. Pat, picked us up at the appointed time for our ride back to the ship. We enjoyed our day in Freeport, thanks to Pat.

Pat, our driver guide was very informative and personable! He took us to the Bahamian Brewery where we tasted several beers which were delicious. We also saw the production line for the Sands beer and that was very interesting. I would recommend this tour

If you are looking for shopping this is not for you! We were able to stop at the perfumery but we had 10 minutes to shop, not enough time to create a fragrance! The bazaar closed after hurricane Sandy so no luck there. The brewery was delish! Lots of beer to sample and to try as much as you want.

The perfume tour was OK, the beer brewery was better because of the unlimited beer offered. The stop over in the tourist area by the casino was good, gave us a chance to relax and see some of Freeport. The issues we had was the online purchase of the excursion did not indicate that the meeting time was Freeport EST time. We were on a Carnival Cruise and all of their excursions we based on ship time, which was CST since the ship is based in New Orleans. I called the number on the paper to verify the time and we had to run off the ship, skipping breakfast, because it was an hour earlier than we expected. When I arrived at the meeting place, the tour guide said that I needed to take the online paper over to the Orange Shirts to get tickets to board the bus. This was my first trip to Freeport and it was not organized well, I did eventually find the Orange Shirts, but they were with Carnival and they did not have tickets for the Viator excursion. I went back to where the bus was, that was ready to leave, and the person I talked to on the phone about the time was there and told the tour guide that she should have accepted the paper to allow us 4 to board the bus. FRUSTRATING!! There was only 4 seat left on the bus and teh AC was not working well. Now I have learned these things to verify before our next excursion.
