Worthwhile tour

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Stephen. We saw the important sites and learned about the history and culture of Nassau. Stephen was an excellent guide. We made quite a few stops to taste local drinks and treats. We walked at a comfortable pace and Stephen always watched out for our safety as we crossed the busy streets. It was a well spent couple of hours. Highly recommend.

STEPHEN IS THE G.O.A.T

Our tour with Stephen was so great. He is a such a nice guy, answered all of our questions about Bahamian history, and really went the extra mile throughout our time together. The amount of time at the stops was perfect, gave us great detail about all of the locations and traditions, and was the entire process was both fun and comfortable. I thank him for putting up with all the questions I asked since I love learning about new cultures and history. He also got us into all the good spots, and gave us a BANGING food spot recommendation at Curly’s. If you go…. get the jerk chicken. Thank you again, Stephen. I highly recommend him as it is a small group and is highly fun and educational. Also, he’s just a really chill guy. We threw him a nice tip at the end because of the fun he provided. Thank you again!!!

Great way to explore Nassau!

We had a wonderful experience on our tour. Stephen was an excellent guide and very accommodating, even with our kids who were a little tired during the journey. We were able to stop off at an ice cream shop and give them a few minutes to recharge. He provided great commentary through our tour, and we enjoyed all the stops. Meeting spot and final location of the tour were also very convenient. Highly recommend!

Stephen did an AMAZING...

Stephen did an AMAZING job giving us a tour of downtown Nassau!! He made sure we had water to drink as well as made sure we were safe walking across very busy streets! We also made additional stops to local shops along the way that had amazing food and drinks waiting for us to try! Lastly, Stephen went out his way after the excursion was over to show my party and I where to catch the water ferry which was greatly appreciated! Definitely a 10/10 excursion and will do it again next time we’re in Bahamas!!
