Wonderful day exploring the Exumas! Special thanks to the captain and crew - you’ve made this a memorable experience!

What a great tour and Emilio and Rico were great guides! Overall, a safe, unique, and fun day exploring the Exumas! I've been to some 37 countries and have done a lot of tours, and while this one is a bit pricey for sure, given the diversity of unique activities, definitely worth it! I literally had only 2.5 days in the Bahamas but glad I spent one doing this tour
The Exumas is definitely the treasure of the Bahamas - an archipelago of beautiful islands and water of every shade of blue. The speed boat cuts through the waves with ease and seats were pretty comfortable, which is good because the ride itself is a bit long (about an hour to the first stop). Good mix of stops including feeding the rock iguanas, swimming and getting to hold the nurse sharks (this was my favorite part!), a surprisingly nice lunch at an actual restaurant, the famous pig beach, and then a little beach time.
A few thing to note: there was no snorkeling on this tour, which I thought there was and was disappointed by. We stopped at the sunken wreck of Pablo Escobar's plane but didn't actually get out. Some of the stops (the beach stop) felt a little bit rushed for my taste. Also the pigs at the pig beach are huge and pretty wild! I was a little wary around the pigs, but it was still cool. Got hold an adorable baby pig!

We had Rico and Rick take us out for our trip and it was one of the best days I've had! I'm female and I was traveling solo and felt comfortable and safe the entire time. I think we had enough time at each spot and the lunch on Staniel Cay was really good! I would definitely book another tour with this company.

WHEN PIGS ATTACK! Trip was overall excellent. Guides were outstanding. Iguanas, Sharks, Lunch and the beach were excellent. However… The pigs oh the pigs. The highlight of the tour was awful. The pigs are HUGE and AGRESSIVE. THEY BITE! They bit several people while we were there. Overall a recommended trip. Just stay in the boat and watch the pigs from safety. Feeding a 400lb aggressive hog does not add the experience.

Capt. Rico, Ron and Tyler were great guides, the water was beautiful and the pigs — though kitchy — are a once in a lifetime experience. (So was holding nurse sharks!) You do spend a long time just motoring to and from the Exumas on the powerboat which is probably more refreshing on a warmer day, but was kind of chilly on our trip

Our experience was amazing our tour guys gave us a beautiful experience we are so grateful and would recommend family and friends to book this activity

Sand bar was amazing. Wish we spent more time there. You get to see a lot of different places but not much time at each place.
