Overall, we had a really... - Overall, we had a really great time! It was a bit different than what we expected. We had a wonderful driver who was name Bradshaw who made the whole experience fantastic. They take you around the island and show you different things that you can do. As well as educate you on the history of the island. We recommend doing this tour early in your trip, so if he shows you something that interests you that you are able to do it before you leave. He also took us to a fresh fruit market and the Lucaya marketplace.

Fantastic Tour - Tour was great. Charles took us all over the island and was very informative. Saw some awesome sights and did some shopping. Conch fritters were delicious. Paired with a mango slush.. 🤤🤤

amazing!!!! - We had such a wonderful time! our tour guide was waiting for us outside the cruise terminal. I had my 2.5 year old with us, who also had a great time! It was so hot outside, we rode in a van with cold AC which is a plus and the tour guide offered us complimentary waters! I would say it’s a must do. Went to several places including gold rock beach and we were the only 3 on the beach
at that location, even saw a sea turtle! Loved it!!!!! 10/10 recommend!

Fantastic - Charlie was fantastic. It was just my husband and I for the tour. His knowledge of the island was amazing. Seeing the local neighborhoods and learning of the ways of life was interesting. I loved the little beach and bar/restaurant that we stopped at.
My only regret was not bringing my bathing suit along to take a dip in the beautiful water.

Informative and fun time - Charlie was great! He provided us with a a ton of information and history about Grand Bahama. He took us places we would have never known about on our own. Stops at a couple of Markets gave us time for souvenir shopping, snacks and drinks, and a 2 hour stop at a beach club for beach time and a nice lunch was great.

Mamma Gals Awesome Native Experience - We got off our ship not knowing what we were going to do as we hadn't booked an excursion. In asking about the Mamma Gal Native Experiences I had read reviews about, we met Irene, who ended up being our guide. She took us to an awesome Farmers Market, lighthouse, and to the best restaurant on the island with its own private beach. She drove us around between stops explaining how the generational areas are set up, how the government works and showing and telling us about various landmarks. Irene was a wealth of information, answered all our questions and we had an amazing time with her. This experience was so much more than we expected. I recommend it 1000%! We had so much FUN!!!

For the less adventurous - Our tour guide was very nice and knowledgeable of the island, and places. He took us to a small shopping area where we tried Conc Fritters very delicious, then we went to a beach where you could swim with the pigs if you wanted. The water was perfectly cool, considering the temp was 91 with a heat index of 108.

It was just okay - This tour was just okay. It wasn’t bad but it wasn’t great either. There was a mix up with my tour. I didn’t get to see the light house or the fisher’s man area to see the live conk. We didn’t have time to go fruit market to sample the fruit because we had to head back to the cruise terminal. The cruise ship doesn’t allow you bring food back to ship so of course we couldn’t buy any fruit.
The only part of the tour I did enjoy was going to the Banana Beach club. The beach was fantastic. Great food & beautiful relaxing beach. I wish I would’ve just took a cab from the cruise port & just stayed at the Banana Bay Beach club all day. The worst part of the tour was going to Lucayan Market place. Some of the locals were rude if you didn’t buy anything.
My suggestions for a better tour would be to have a tour guide who is more upbeat & friendly. Our tour guide was nice but he was a bit monotone & boring. Maybe he was having a bad day because based on the other reviews he was great with others.
