5.00Had an excellent tour with guide Sandy and driver Jason. The highlight of the tour was a stop at a fish market where we had conch salad fresh from the shell. There were plenty of rum shots aboard the bus to keep things fun!

5.00I booked this tour as my friend and I were visiting Nassau off a cruise ship. I have been to Nassau several times and wanting to do something different. Sandi our tour guide was AMAZING! Very knowledgeable, professional and showed such passion for her job. Jason our driver drove safely and was entertaining. They worked well together. I won’t give away the logistics of the tour, you need to experience it yourself. You will not be disappointed. Thank you for your hospitality Sandi and Jason.

5.00Cannot say enough good things about this tour! It was the perfect mix of fun and food while learning about the Bahamas. Sandy was an excellent tour guide who took great care of us as we went from site to site. Jason was a great driver and the banter between Sandy and Jason was a lot of fun. The food was INCREDIBLE….conch salad, conch fritters, and LOTS OF RUM. Lunch at The Drifters restaurant was perfect. Don’t miss this tour!! 5 stars, highly recommend!!

5.00Everything was well put together Sandy and the driver were very knowledgeable of Nassau and they made it very personal given that we had a smaller group made it better the shots on the bus was a plus. I definitely will recommend for people visiting and want to know a little about the history of Nassau

5.00If you are looking for the perfect local experience, you have to book this tour! From start to finish, it was an absolute 10/10. Our tour guide was the absolute star of the show. She was incredibly informative, highly interactive, and had this amazing gift of making a whole group of strangers instantly feel like family. Her energy was infectious! The stops were flawless, but the highlights were definitely the food and drinks: The Conch Salad: Incredibly fresh, vibrant, and hands-down amazing. The Rum Sampling: Phenomenal pours and a super fun atmosphere. The Rum Cake Place: The perfect sweet finish to an unforgettable day. Don't hesitate—book this tour immediately. You will love every second of it!
Good tour and food , worth the price!

5.00Sandy and Jason were incredible! They were fun, knowledgeable, and super accommodating. They went out of their way to make sure our group had a great experience and it felt like we were getting an inside look into the beautiful Bahamian culture through their friends at each stop. We do a lot of food tours through Viator and this one will go down as one of our favorites! Highly recommend as a stop during your cruise. An experience like no other and you will not regret booking this tour!
A Great Tour, a Super Guide & an Amazing Time

5.00We had just a super GREAT time on this tour. Miss Sandi, our Guide, is such a wealth of knowledge about all things Bahama. She’s what we’d call “Sandi-pedia”. Her depth of knowledge in Bahamian cultural, historical and cuisine is outstanding. Sandi led us through conch markets, tea stops, forts and historic sites all the while making it so FUN and stimulating. We’ve taken tours like these on numerous islands but this was by far the very best and Sandi was truly remarkable. If you are interested in seeing Bahamian food, drink, history and culture - then this is your tour. Vehicle was immaculate, tour started on time and was well paced. One last note: After the tour ended and we were dropped off at our hotel I accidentally left my cell phone on the floor of the tour vehicle. Panic time, right? Sandi to the rescue. She discovered my phone when she got home and was cleaning the vehicle. She turned around and drove all the way back to our hotel to return it. Unbelievable!!
Sandy and Mario are family

5.00Sandy and Mario were outstanding. Fortunately, I was the third guest of three. It was like a private tour, since our group was so small. We could ask as many questions as we wanted. Me, as a history nerd, enjoyed that part. Sandy made us feel like we were family. She knew her history and was engaged the entire tour. She didn't allow for any dull moments. Mario's personality is great and it works well, as it is different from Sandy. His driving was purposeful and didn't allow the traffic to put him in a bad mood. We parked close to every entrance and never had to walk far. Absolutely a five star experience.
