Hida was an amazing guide. She educated us on the Island and its people. Shared great stories. Introduced us to several locals. We got to enjoy conch fritters at the market. Which were amazing and a must try. Great food and drinks at Banana Bay and the beach was beautiful plus peaceful. I would definitely recommend this tour.

Wonderful food, history and wildlife. The beaches are beautiful! It’s good to do this trip early on your vacation so Hida can educate you on where to go and what to see. :)

Excellent narration and guiding bu Hida, highly recommended. Learned how to pull the meat from the conch.Thw whole experience and the fact that you get to know a lot of Freeport and the background. Possibly more recommended in March or April instead of January.

Hida was amazing! She gave us a thorough tour of the Grand Bahama Island and culture. She suggested some amazing and authentic food options and took us to one of the most beautiful beaches on the island!
If you want the true experience during your trip, book with her.

The tour guide, Hida, was knowledgeable and friendly. We toured the Maritime Museum, spent time at the Marketplace, experienced fresh conch at two restaurants, and traveled throughout the city with Hida informing us about the history and landmarks. We spent 6 hours plus and had many more stops to tour even after. I would highly recommend the tour!!
Response from Host, Jan 2023
Thank you Angela for your lovely review and I am so thrilled you both had a great day out with me!!! Please do come back again with your family, friends and associates to explore more of Grand Bahama. Looking forward to your next visit, Big Hugs, Hida
