Explore Nassau by ATV with hotel or port pickup, rum cake samples, Fort Montagu, Fish Fry lunch, Cable Beach, and local history.

“Friendly guides, good sites but know this is a city tour with not a lot of info shared and slow speeds in lots of traffic. At times it was confusing trying to understand the guides driving hand signals. Got to see the city highlites and they were fine. Nothing really outstanding and no lunch was included although we were allowed to get lunch in our own. For the price I think it was just ok.”

“This was far and away the greatest use of my money on vacation. Our tour guide Nikki was knowledgeable and funny and made our tour great. She knew everyone at every stop and got us to the front of the line. I said I wanted to grab a cigars, she knew a spot next to a stop we had planned. She had thoughts on the rum, and engaged with my kids naturally and made it fun. CANNOT RECOMMEND ENOUGH!!!”

“Thank you for taking us around the Bahama’s, we enjoyed it very much. We were lucky enough to have the whole boat to ourselves. Our guide was very nice and attentive, took us around the island while talking about his passion living there. We had plenty of time to enjoy the snorkeling up to feeding the pigs on the island, the dolphins etc etc. We enjoyed cold punch on the boat and music. Plenty of time to enjoy all the activities and do so much in just half a day. Our guide and captain were very nice and helped us with everything. At the end they dropped of us at…”
