Excellent Walking Tour with Steven - I completely enjoyed the historical walking tour with Stephen. As a native, he is very knowledgeable about the history, politics and economy of Nassau. As a solo traveler, I felt very safe as he navigated the group to many areas of interest including a tour and samples at a rum distillery, winery and chocolate shop.

If you are looking for a... - If you are looking for a tour that will give you an amazing history of Nassau and take you to all of the must see sights within walking distance of the cruise port this is it! Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. The fact that he knew so many people along the way made it even better. I would definitely recommend this tour for anyone looking for something other than a beach day excursion.

Walk this way… - My wife and I had a great tour with our guide Stephen. He was extremely knowledgeable of the political, environmental, economical, and cultural histories of the island. Well rounded fun trip. Well worth your time and money. Slam dunk.

A great experience, very easily walkable - A great experience. I’m a history nerd, and the guide, Charles, was engaging, entertaining, and knowledgeable. My wife is decidedly NOT a history nerd, but she said it was great as well. We got some wonderful local restaurant recommendations from Charles as well. We would highly recommend it!

Around the town with Steven - Had a great walking tour with Steven! He shared his knowledge on some history of Nassau, and took me around the town. The tour included a visit to the queens staircase, a fort, a rum distillery, and much more. He was very friendly, and made sure I saw everything there was to see and made it back to the boat on time. Definitely recommend!

A Captivating Walk - The scenery was truly breathtaking. The buildings were amazing and the the people were an absolute blessing, very friendly and interesting. Our guide and owner, Charles, was an absolute joy to be around. His stories, engulfed with the rich history of Nassau, made the walk. It was a 3 hour tour, but you didn't realize how fast the walk went due to the various places that we visited and some of the local treats we enjoyed along the way. I would definitely, and will, do it again when we return in 2026.

Charles is the best tour guide! - Walking with Charles and listening to him tell about San Juan’s history! We walked through old San Juan, went up the Queen’s staircase, walked around the fort, sampled wine, chocolate and pina colada. It was a wonderfully interesting, informative and fun day!
