Fantastic Fun Food
Evan_F, Apr 2024
My wife and I loved this tour. We had a great time and learned a lot about the bahamas. The highlight of the trip was seeing how Konch is harvested. We also got to eat Konch salad made fresh followed by Kalik beer to wash it down. Take me back now please. Our guides, Sandi and Dexter, are a great team. They were funny, knowledgeable, and proud of their island. I definitely recommend this tour.
Enjoy Nassau like a local

A perfect day in Nassau! We highly recommend this tour while visiting the Bahamas. Very informative, the pace was perfect and the food was amazing.
Best tour of our trip!
Megan_S, Mar 2024
The guide and bus driver were very knowledgeable and full of energy! You will not leave hungry on this trip there was something for everyone including chicken and fish at the end for those who may not be interested in conch salad or conch fritters. Quite a few drinks to try on the trip as well. This tour was perfect for all ages and did not have a ton of walking.
Excellent Tour!!!
Steve_S, Mar 2024
My family of 8 recently went on this tour while on a Oasis of the Seas cruise. We had a great time with Sandy and Jason. I highly recommend this tour!
Delightful Tour
Suzanne_t, Mar 2024
Our driver and tour guide were phenomenal. Entertaining, knowledgeable, friendly. The tour was fantastic. Lots of interesting stops including a fort. Samples and lunch were way beyond our expectations.
Excellent Tour + Beautiful City = Fun Day
Kim_L, Mar 2024
I messed up and double-booked two excursions. The Nassau Food Tour team accommodated us and worked within our time constraints so we could have a great experience. Who knew conch ceviche would become one of our new favorites? Sarah and Rev were a great addition to "family" for a day.
Great tour! Good food and fun!
LeeAnn_H, Mar 2024
Sandy and Dexter were awesome tour guides! Very informative yet fun! Food was all yummy! Jason was an amazing driver! We were very happy with our decision to take this tour! 😊
Excellent introduction to the Bahamas
Martin_D, Mar 2024
Sandi was very knowledgeable about the island and presented it all in a light and entertaining way. We went to the fish market and sampled a Conch salad, visited forts and the Queen’s Staircase, and finished with a delicious traditional lunch, not forgetting the tots of coconut rum along the way. Excellent half day introduction to the Bahamas, it’s history, cuisine, culture and way of life.
Great Tour
James_E, Feb 2024
Very good tour and tour guide was great and some good rum also. If you like eating local food and the local culture this is a tour for you. Do not expect to see all the sites because this tour takes you to meet locals and experience fun on the tour.
Definitely recommend
Christina_S, Feb 2024
Tour guides were engaging and fun. Liked hearing the history and the best part was the fish market where we got a first hand experience with seeing how conch were harvested. Fresh conch salad and fritters were incredible and we wouldn’t have had that experience without the tour.
Very nice!
Jill_Z, Feb 2024
The tour was great. We really had a good time. The bus was comfortable. We enjoyed trying the different foods. Our guide Sandy and our driver. Jason were wonderful. I recommend this tour.
Will Not Disappoint!
Karen_B, Feb 2024
Excellent history and tasting tour. I found the old fort most interesting. There was food or drink at every stop. Sandy, our tour guide, was very knowledgeable. We were sad when the tour ended.
