Rum Reggae and Rhythms Tour

I take an avg of 2 trips a year with several excursions on my itinerary, I'll have to say this is by far one of my top 5. Just the atmosphere, vibe and amazing guide - Ryan. We just cliqued from the start and had an amazing time as he shared with us all the history and highlights of the tour. Very knowledgeable, easy going and guaranteed to show you a great time. The drinks were awesome and yes, sip slow 😁 This was one of our last excursions and perfect way to end our trip. Don't miss out on this tour, and hope you get Ryan. We all know our hosts n guides make a difference and we so appreciate the day we had we with him.

The tour was great. Ryan was an excellent tour guide with a vast knowledge of the history of the places that we toured. Also a great personality for the job.

Fabulous tour! Ryan and Clever were the best guides! We learned so much at each stop; cigar making, rum and wine making. The samples were great and we even did some salsa dancing! The rum punch on the bus was excellent and our glasses were never empty! Great way to meet other tourists! Definitely worth the money and a must do during your stay!

We loved it, Ryan is amazing, sadly some of the stops were closed but we had a great time! Thank you

The friendly atmosphere. Clever and Ryan were amazing. Very knowledgeable and also accommodating. We felt very safe. Loved the energy. Definitely recommend it and will do it again. Thank you!!

Both tour guides we are now 10% bohemians the rum punch and also the knowledge of the culture 👌 ❤❤❤

This tour was excellent. Cleva, Ryan and our driver Fado were engaging, professional and most importantly Fun. The cigar rolling experience was the best part of our tour.

Let me start off by saying this.... I want to give a 5-star because we all had a fantastic time, but as a business owner myself I have certain expectations. - 1 hour late; no reason as to why except "we're sorry and we'll make it up to you". - What made it worse is we were in a shady part of town waiting. Well, I'm sure prior to COVID it would've been ok. But, everything was closed down and what seemed abandoned and a lot of loiterers hanging around. Luckily, we were 3 couples (3 women and 3 men) but had it been all ladies I feel as if trouble would have come. - The establishments that we visited could have been more welcoming and should have elaborated on the business - how it was established, what makes their product special, what it takes to keep their business running, the difference between the products they sell. Instead, we were led into the establishments and everyone just stood around. We had to initiate the hellos and proceed to ask questions ourselves. If the establishments took the time to interact with us more, we would've purchased more than we had. - There seemed to be no timeline for our itinerary because low and behold it was already the 5th hour into our tour and we were famished. Ryan and Cleva took us to McKenzie's which was a local food joint. - Because of the time we did not go to Cable Beach as indicated in the itinerary which was a HUGE disappointment. Why? Who wouldn't want to see the former home of famous reggae artist Bob Marley and take some pics? I mean, after all, you are in the Bahamas! - As a drinking induced excursion and not to mention being in hot/humid weather they offered no water! Or shall I say had no water available! We ended up purchasing bottled water for ourselves and of course for our driver and host. If I overlook the above, our Driver Cleva and Host Ryan made this excursion SO MUCH FUN! Their energy was top notch and the non-stop drinks.... OMG! Cleva drove us around the island, music blaring, often playing the brakes in time with the rhythms of the music. Ryan kept our cups full of the rum punch they called SipSlow, sang, danced, and took care of our group. For those looking to book this tour, take a chance because YOU WILL have fun. For the business owner, I hope you take the time to read this review. Please understand your customer's time is valuable. Do not leave us waiting - especially in slummy area. We are paying for your service and trusting that we are in good hands. Fun is of the essence, but sticking to an itinerary of places listed is what entices us to book in the first place. Work with your business partners (establishments) to be welcoming of your/its guests and educate us. This is why travelers love to travel!

Our tour guides Clever and Eric were the BEST!! They were very knowledgeable and personable! There’s so much history that was shared and the various tasting were hit. I would most definitely do the your again and again!

We loved our rum and reggae day yesterday. We had a slightly late start due to traffic issues but we were kept up-to-date in advance. Our guides, Cleva and Ryan were awesome. Cleva drove us around the island, music blaring, often playing the brakes in time with the rhythms of the music. Ryan kept our cups full of the rum punch they called SipSlow, sang, danced, and took care of our mixed group. By the time we did the rum tasting we were a cohesive group of men and women from the ages of 23 to 74. We got back to our ship with time to spare. Definitely a good day for anyone who likes rum or island music.
