Highly Recommend
Christian_W, October 2026
We had a wonderful time, trying all the food and learning about the history of the Bahamas! It is a good way to get your 10,000 steps in for the day while also eating some great food. Nicolette was wonderful and very joyful!

Walking tour in the area...
Adam_P, October 2026
Walking tour in the area near the cruise terminals in Nassau. Guide was engaging. Very informal tour. Pretty light on the story of the food and places visited. Tour included small plates: conch fritters, a fish taco, chicken curry, and chocolates. A couple of rum drinks if you choose.

Great walking food tour
Andrew_R, October 2026
Princess was a fantastic tour guide. She took us to 5 different places where we got to eat lots of great food and drinks. This 3-hour walking tour was perfect for us. We got a short, guided tour of the city with “local” knowledge without being exhausting.
