Amazing tour guide - We had an amazing tour! Our guide was fun, energetic, and educated. We would recommended her to anyone who’s interested in touring Nassau! She’s CHIPPIES’ granddaughter.

A wonderful experience - This was an incredibly tour!! I wish we'd gotten our tour guide's name, but she was a lovely woman who is a part of the Chippie's family. She has the most beautiful energy, told fun stories about the island, and clearly takes great pride in her work. Highly highly recommend this tour!

Loved Chippies Tour!! - This was an excellent excursion led by an enthusiastic tour guide with deep family roots on the island. The guide provided a wealth of information about the island's history and seemed to knew many locals as we explored less-traveled areas of the city. We visited several notable attractions and learned about their history, development, and impact on the island's community. I highly recommend this tour—my only wish is that it could have been longer!

Viator for the Best Experiences!! - The tour guide Fontella was SOOOO amazing! I leaned so much about the Bahamas! I can’t wait to come back! Also, I have done several tours with Viator in different countries and they always so professional!

Very Good Experience - Ask for Fontella!! - Our driver/tour guide Fontella (Fonzi) was so amazing!! Although it was raining, we still had an excellent tour!! She taught us so much about Bahamian history and culture and really gave us an excellent experience! The rum punch was so delicious and we had an amazing time!! Definitely recommend.
Although I did not detract any stars because Fonzi was so amazing, the male tour guide was terrible, rude, had no people skills, and if I had to ride with him, I would not recommend this tour. The male tour guide was upset because we were all initially placed on Fonzi’s bus to get out of the rain, and we asked to stay with the rest of our party that booked separately. He spent the rest of the check-in time talking badly about us to the other guest on the bus, within earshot of us. It was a horrible experience before the tour even started, and he wanted me to get on his bus with another guest who had just minutes before triggered an asthma attack in me because he was smoking while we were waiting to be picked up. I would give him zero stars if I could.
Anyway, Fonzi made the rest of the experience great. I’m glad we were able to stay on her bus and experience the city with her as our guide! I even won a prize for answering her trivia question correctly! 🙂

Must do in Nassau - I totally recommend this tour to anyone visiting Nassau. She is absolutely wonderful. She has so much knowledge about the island and seems to know everyone. Lol. I told her it was my boyfriend's birthday that day and she made sure to celebrate and gave him a gift. I am looking forward to visiting Nassau again to
take the tour once more (unfortunately it started to rain)

Enjoyed the tour of the islands - The tour location was easy to find at the Straw Market. We enjoyed Julian’s warm welcome upon arrival and he was a good narrator. However, we were delayed about 10 to 15 minutes because he spent time trying to add last-minute walk ups to the tour. This isn’t fair to the customers already there and gives the appearance that our tour time will be cut short. I suggest that if you do this, you announce that the tour will not be negatively impacted.
