Trip Highlight!!!

Bey!!! This tour was amazing!!! Our tour guide, Llsa, was very informative while being fun. She had us all belly pain laughing 😂. If she’s your guide your tour is about to be lit!!! The food was amazing (those fritters and that soup 🤤), the historical background of Bahamas is beautiful and lets not forget about the view! As a Jamaican, I was shocked to see how similar the islands are but different. This tour was definitely one of the highlights of our trip (my sister surprise birthday trip). LISA!!!! Jackie and myself thank you for welcoming us and just leaving us with such a wonderful experience. Pray y’all get Lisa guys!!!!! After this tour nobody couldn’t tell me I’m not half Bahamian especially with my new slangs!!! A beautiful island with people equally beautiful and welcoming!

Lisa!!! This tour and our tour guide was amazing. We all agreed this was our favorite stop on our trip due to the knowledge Lisa instilled in us and the delicious food we got to eat. Bahamian Kitchen is a must hit when you are in Nassau and if we come back we will be going there for conch fritters!

Lisa was excellent, and fun to spend the afternoon with. The tour's first stop was a fantastic restaurant with authentic Bahamian food. Lisa was informed and was an honest person when she didn’t know something. She would then go out of her way and try and look it up or find an answer to our questions! I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Nassau. It was a great way to learn local history and culture and try new foods!

More than eating…

This is really more than a food tour. You get a tour a different parts of downtown, and even a history lesson. Dude was funny and super forgiving (my group was really late to arrive). My favorite was the rum cake, learning that salary isn’t really taxed, and exciting new Bahamian sayings/slangs.
