5.00Nickie knows the island, loves it dearly, and apparently knows half the people on it. Her vehicle was comfortable and air conditioned as we traveled around town during an extremely hot day. We learned the history of the island, traveled through both residential and commercial areas as well as tourist spots like the Queen's Staircase for over 3 hours. We got many samples of local goodies from rum cake to chocolates to conch fritters (which were the best we've ever had!) Our 4 and 5 yo were with us and she was great with them. You could skip the stop at Atlantis as it is just a huge American casino, but it does reinforce the deep divide between the foreign investors and the people who actually have to live there and feed their families. Highly recommend this excursion.

5.00Nikki was awesome! She made the tour fun, engaging, and enjoyable from start to finish. We learned so much about the history of the Bahamas, its culture, and its people. She was incredibly knowledgeable, and even our kids were entertained by her stories throughtout the tour, which made the experience enjoyable for the whole family. Nikki's passion and enthusiasm really stood out. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the Bahamas!

5.00Wonderful tour. Well organized and very knowledgeable tour guide. KRon was a humourous and knowledgeable tour guide. He kept us on schedule but didn't rush us along. At stops he offered to take pictures of us and answered all of our questions. We felt like VIPs as he ushered us through tour groups and made sure we had seats at the distillery to enjoy our drinks and conch fritters. Highly recommend!
Amazing Experience!

5.00This was an amazing excursion. So informational and just the right amount of time. Was nice to get back into the cold van each time to drive to the next place to visit.
Skip the cruise tours, do this instead!

5.00Nikki was our tour guide and Jerry was the driver. It was so easy to find Tyron to start the tour and immediately they started off well. There were a couple of cranky people on our tour and Nikki took it in such stride, she was hugging everyone goodbye at the end including the cranky people at the beginning. I had 3 children and my parents along for the tour so ages 7 to 76 with us and Nikki and Jerry were great with us all. The tour gave us a great highlight and a little truth and perspective about Nassau. We got to see and experience a lot in a short amount of time without ever feeling rushed. The humor and genuine fun Nikki seemed to be having was contagious. You could tell.she loved her job and it made such a difference. My mom who has traveled all over the world was so impressed and said she has never seen a tour guide hugging everyone goodbye. Nikki called us "Family" all day long and truly made us feel that way. Excellent tour! Highly recommend Nikki and this tour!!!
Awesome Bahamas tour!
