This one is not to be missed!!! Lisa is the best tour guide, we have ever had and we do a lot of walking tours. The food at Bahamian Mamas cooking was so great and the Coconut water small cocktail at the John Watling distillery was very amazing too. The touring inside the Greycliff Hotel checking out the chocolate, cigars and wines were spectacular as well!

This tour was an absolute delight! By some luck, my husband and I were the only people on the tour, so we were easily able to chat with and ask question of our guide Pierre. He was personable, knowledgeable, funny, and seemed happy to share his culture with us. Everything we ate and drank was absolutely delicious and I would 100% happily go back to each location for more next time we're in Nassau! I was stuffed by the end, and my husband was quite content as well. We were here on a short cruise, with a 1 day stop in Nassau. We did the 10:30AM tour, which started a short and easy walk from the port. It took almost exactly 3 hours, leaving us with plenty of time to wander around a bit, buy some souvenirs, and make it back to the ship well before the 5:30 All Aboard time. It was a perfect introduction to the island, its food, and its culture!

First off our tour guide, Lisa was amazing! Funny, warm, and so informative. We loved learning about the Bahamian history. The food was so delicious. We especially loved the first stop, Bohemian cooking. Some of the best food we've eaten. The chocolate, drinks, and rum were superior throughout the tour. Special shout out to Max the bird. Thank you for such a special time in your country. We can't wait to visit again.

This was a great tour. We learned a lot about the city, and ate some great food. I wish they offered wine refills!

This food tour was a great combination of both Bahamian history and food. Pierre was the best! We have done food tours in several locations and this one was one of our favorites. Bring a water bottle because quite a bit of walking and it is very hot & humid. Highly recommend!
