Funky Jeep Abenteuer in Nassau

Our driver Steven shared lots of Nassau’s culture, history and kept us laughing! The Educulture Junkanoo Museum is a very special place that will forever be remembered by my daughter and I. If you want to learn about Nassau, DO THIS!!! Thank you Steven! Thank you Arlene - Educulture Junkanoo Museum!

Fantastic tour. Very personable. Saw so many places and tried so many foods and drinks. Uncle Lionel was our driver and guide. He was great.

Our tour guide was Matthew. He was punctual and kept us informed about the many historical and important sites around Nassau. We reached our planned stops on time and we really enjoyed ourselves at each one as we learned more about the rich Bahamian culture. The best stop was absolutely the Junkanoo Museum.

We’ve always talked poorly about the port at Nassau and how we typically stay on ship verse getting out. We decided to book this tour and all five of us absolutely had a blast and loved it.

We had such a wonderful experience with Funky Jeep Tours. Steve was a great tour guide.He was enthusiastic & knowledgeable. Loved learning more about the Junkanoo & trying some yummy grouper fingers & conch fritters. It was an unusually cold day in Nassau & this was a nice alternative to a beach day.

This was a fun excursion to see a bit of local Nassau, as opposed to just the beaches. We booked through viator vice our cruise line (Disney) because of the size of our group (9), which allowed us to all get on the excursion together - and honestly it was probably more efficient to meet up with excursion directly. Our driver, Adrian, was great. Knowledgeable, polite and not pushy. The kids especially loved the novelty of riding in the jeep, climbing over the large wheels and through the open windows to get in. Most windows zipped up to shield us from wind/rain, and Adrian had a speaker so everyone could hear him. The highlights of the trip were the Junkanoo experience - an off the beaten path, hole-in-the-wall museum/education center where we learned about the history, saw and were encouraged to touch the different costumes, and had a little experience making music ourselves. We also enjoyed the lunch - bites of some local cuisine (the wings were amazing). We did swing by several local places for tastes of tea, ice cream, and chocolate. We all enjoyed the samples and the bit of local culture as we learned about some of the unique ingredients. Even though there was absolutely no pressure, it did feel a bit like a clever shopping trick. We also went to the distillery, which was fun but the tour was a bit underwhelming - very large, hard to hear, and short (under 10 minutes). That's actually somewhere I'd have wanted to hear more about. Most in our group didn't drink, so we didn't get to partake in the rum, vodka, or mixed drinks. Recommended for families that want a bit of culture but also lots of novelty and change to keep the kids interested and engaged.

What fun! Our guide was Leroy. He was extremely knowledgeable. He was fun and provided historical facts about Nassau and Paradise Island. Our group of seven enjoyed the beautiful sun shinny day on the open air jeep. We traveled the complete Island viewing the Embassies, Churches, Homes of the Rich and Famous. Our tour ended at a local restaurant tasting the native cuisine before boarding the ship. It was an excellent and reasonable excursion for our group, who were of mature age with slight mobility problems, although Leroy had a step stool to help board the jeep. I highly recommend the Funky Jeep tour for all ages and families. I found the tour to be reasonable, timely, and very efficient. Most of all it was very informative because Leroy was so knowledgeable.. The tour was January 13, 2026. Thanks Leroy, Eleanor W. from Virginia

We had THE BEST experience with Leroy/Leon! Can’t remember his exact name because we called him Charlie & we were his angels! He made sure everywhere we walked into, the entrance was cleared when he announced “Make room for my angels” as we stopped at all our destinations. My daughters & I went on a Disney cruise & booked the funky jeep for a tour of Nassau. His knowledge of history, culture & love for the island made us feel welcome & safe. I hope the next time we visit, he still does this tour. 10 out of 10, definitely recommend! And if you like to talk football, he knows his sports! :) he’s just great can’t say enough.

Spent the afternoon with Eric as he drove us to various local sites like the tea house, fish fry and the Watley distillery. The highlight was learning about the Junkanoo from Barabbas! Would highly recommend this tour!

This excursion was amazing. Steven our driver was great. The pathway to the Queens Staircase is a beautiful area. We tasted rum cake, tasty herbal tea and could have tasted rum. We enjoyed the history and the tour where they make the rum. The Junkanoo was our favorite. The couple that shared with us all the costumes and history behind the Junkanoo parade were amazing. It was so interesting. Could have stayed there for a lot longer. It is so hard to believe the costumes are made from paper and old boxes. We then went to Arawak Cay and went to Drifters and enjoyed delicious fish, conch fritters and the best wings I have ever had. Our family of 10 ranged in age from 7 to 68. We all loved it and highly recommend this trip. Also, they picked us up and dtopped us off at our hotel. Take this tour, you will not be disappointed. Thank you from "The Moye family"
