5.00Our guide (Cody) was incredibly knowledgeable and we learnt a lot not just about rum but about the history of the Bahamas as a whole! As a Bahamian-American who’s spent a lot of time in the Bahamas visiting family but hasn’t spent much time studying the country’s history, I was very happy to learn / have our questions answered so thoroughly and I would recommend this tour to both first-time and return visitors alike. You’ll have most of your drinks / complete the actual rum flight tasting at the final destination for those curious.
Great review!

5.00We had the most wonderful time on the Rum Tour! Jason was amazing - one of the best tour guides we’ve ever had. We tried delicious rum, learned more about the Bahamas, and got to see many places we wouldn’t have had the chance to see if it wasn’t for Jason. Thanks so much for the great memories!
A surprise ending!

5.00We cannot stop raving about this tour. My husband and I were not sure what to expect and we were pleasantly surprised. We could have done without the wine tasting and moonshine (not our thing)- but we loved the way this tour had a surprise ending. The best part is we were a small group so the tour felt intimate and personal. So much fun and our guide was hilarious. Tips * Be ready to walk- the City does not have the best infrastructure so tennis shoes or hiking sandals- no high heels ladies. * Have a good meal beforehand...cause you will be drinking.
Very enjoyable, but....

4.00Fox was our tour guide and amazing. He worked very hard from the start. He treated us well, and was well organized. Food snacks were chicken and conch fritters, all fresh made and seasoned well. Little hot walking but he was mindful of all group members. Be careful to wear comfortable shoes. Most fun at the private Speakeasy!
