This is the best way to see Nassua... like a native, with a native. Slow down and see the sights. Our guide, Juan, is a native Bahamian and a local expert. There were four of us on the tour and as others have said, the tour is started with a bottle of water and another for fresh, delicious, coconut water. Juan provided us all with communication sets but we really didn’t need them.
Beside being knowledgeable, Juan was friendly and engaging. You felt like you were visiting a cousin instead of being on a tour. We went to local historical sights as well some manufacturers and merchants. We had the opportunity to sample rum, chocolate, tea, and wine. All with no pressure to purchase anything. Although we did come with tea, hot sauce, and a hand-rolled cigar.
Juan also took us to a local fish fry restaurant called Drifters where dined fried snapper and cracked conch along with the local Kalik beer. By far, this trip was the highlight of our cruise. Book it and ask for Juan!
