Nassau Trike Site und Beach Tour

We did the electric trikes tour. The E-Trikes were fun. We went to an old fort that is not on most tours, so we had the fort to ourselves. The tour guide showed us around the fort on foot and told us about the history of the fort. The history lesson was a bit long for me. We then went to eat lunch at an authentic restaurant. It was not a lot of food, but was very tasty. We then went to the beach, then back to the start. I would have rather of done more riding around on the e-trikes and less of a history lesson at the fort.

Pros: - The trikes were fun to ride and navigate. Worked well for older family members. - The tour guides were fun and did their best. They engaged with the guests and made it fun Cons: - We didn't really explore much compared to previous tours I've booked with Viator in other countries. Seemed like we were able to just ride around a lot and experience the trikes more than experience the island. We went to the fort, passed a popular restaurant, rode along the beach and waited for lunch at a restaurant that never opened, raced along a track - We were supposed to have food included. The restaurant was closed. We wasted time waiting. There was no money refunded or anything acknowledged about not receiving this part of the experience. - The headphones used to hear the guides were a good idea but not good quality. The audio was hit or miss, and the distance made it hard to hear. Which made it difficult to understand where to go - which is dangerous around other cars - Normally, in my experience on Viator tours the hosts lets you know that pictures are being taken, asks for consent and email to send pictures. The guides began taking pics with their own camera but this conversation never occurred. Eventually, we just asked them to take pictures with our own cameras. I do not like people taking pictures without my consent, especially if they aren't emailing them to you as part of the tour - I overheard the manager (I guess) apologize on behalf of the guides to some particular guests. This was off-putting apologizing to a set of guests and not others. And apologizing for people they hired to deliver a service you pay them for. It was weird.

Arthur, our guide was fantastic. I did this tour with my 81yo father. The beginning of the tour is spent in the parking lot getting to know the trike. Also, very little of the tour is spent on public roads, so not to worry too much about traffic. The fort was interesting, and there are a couple places where you can go fast and just feel the wind in your face. The top speed is set at 25mph. Overall, I would recommend as the time with my dad riding around was priceless! He had a smile on his face the entire time!

Great tour - the trikes were fun and allowed us to make several stops, Scott shared a lot of local knowledge about the history and culture of Nassau and the Bahamas, and the Bahamian lunch/snack was tasty. Starting time and length were also good for us to be able to have some free time in what was a fairly quick port stop.

Trikes are easy to operate. Loads of fun. Great short shore excursion. The wife and I had a great time. The guide (SCOTT) was very informative. We had a ball!!

A brilliant experience where we were warmly welcomed by Scott and introduced to our fun and knowledgeable instructor Arthur. After a practice session on a flat area away from traffic we headed up to Fort Charlotte where we had time to explore and find out more about its history. Then on to Fish Fry for lunch and drinks and a trip along the seafront with time to pose for photos. Arthur was friendly and patient and super knowledgeable about Nassau and New Providence Island and the time flew by. Would definitely recommend

Do this tour! The trikes took a minute to get used to because of the fast acceleration . But they can hold most Americans - young and older-weighing up to 300lbs. These are much easier to maneuver than the Segway or an ebike. With our enthusiastic guide Arthur, We drove up to Fort Charlotte for an incredible view at every corner and then walked around the grounds and learned the hard history of the Bahamians. It is extremely well preserved and in tact, including the cannons, dungeons and the original well. I thought it was hands down a much better fort than the one we visited in San Juan. We got back on the trikes and saw the shipping port, and then stopped at the Fish Fry at D Waters cafe for a nice bite of conch fritters and fish sticks. Our waitress Sharice was amazing and attentive. She even gave us a magnet for a souvenir. We then drove up the cruise terminal beach for a short visit to the pier and the lighthouse. It was only a 2 hour tour and they offered pick up and drop off at our hotel. You just have to ask them to do it. Overall, it was a great experience and I enjoyed the ride. I highly recommend this tour and the company. They take pride in their work.
