"Limpy" our driver was fantastic! He was able to accommodate our trip as preferred by our group and tailored it perfectly. It should be updated soon, but please note that there is no perfume factory as it stopped production after the hurricane. The description had it listed as part of the tour still. My girls were bummed but our driver did an excellent job accommodating. Thank you Limpy! If you're ever in Alaska, come visit us!

The driver, Denise, was very nice, but arrive in an old, beat up van and she talked so fast it was hard to understand her.
The area she drove us thru near the ship was very depressed with abandoned homes, trash piles with old tires and overgrown weeds.
She later drove us by million dollar homes which were obviously not owned by local residents!
This was a very disappointing tour and not worth the time or cost.

Had Charlie who was very knowledgeable about the island! Learned so many fascinating facts! Even went out of his way to take me to an additional location nearby so I could get my friend a souvenir!! Went in this tour with my parents who also thoroughly enjoyed it!

This was an amazing tour. I took this with my mom, husband and two kids. My kids (8) and (10) loved it as well. This tour was so informative and we got to see the different economic areas (low, middle and upper class). We got to keep a conch shell and try conch fritters. At the end we spent a few hours at a private beach. The tour van was air conditioned. I would suggest to bring beach wear to enjoy the water! The tour guide was amazing. I wish I remembered the name of tour guide. He was amazing and answered all of our questions.

Great for older folks who do not want strenuous adventure. Charlie drove us around and was an awesome tour guide. He shared so much knowledge about the island as we passed by all the sites from the van. We stopped and relaxed and Cleveland beach and had lunch. We stopped at a famous bakery and got coconut tart which was homemade by the locals. Bring cash in case you chose to support the local community with souvenir purchases. Charlie allowed us to hit a few stores after the standard tour time to stock up on some food and drinks for our room before dropping us back... he went above and beyond. The free conch fritters were sooo good! I would book this again and recommend this tour to all!

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.

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.

Glad you enjoyed 😉 What would have made the tour 5 stars ?

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.
