Nikki was an outstanding tour guide of an island that she clearly loves. We had insightful commentary informing us about the history, people, commerce and overall culture. It was an engaging and most enjoyable tour. It was completely worthwhile and comfortable.
Excellent tour! I can’t say enough positive things about our tour guide Nicki! She was so much fun, informative and helpful. The directions about how to find the meeting location were very clear. I highly recommend!
Nikki is amazing ... very informative and has the best energy... 1000% recommend... Great tour to learn history of the island.....
Personal and intimate tour! We came off a cruise ship for an escape from the crowded excursions and we had fun and learned a lot about the island.
Nikki was an excellent tour guide showing us the tourist location and the local spots. We enjoyed learning about the history of the islands and her energetic personality kept us engaged throughout the event. We recommend a local guide for the best experience. 🇧🇸 😎
I booked this tour solo and Karon was an amazing host! I enjoyed visiting all the sights, and he shared some great background information about each stop and the community here. Highly recommend this tour for people looking to explore the area.
We all had a great time in Nassau with Niki, our guide. She is very knowledgeable and awesome! Highly recommended!!!
We had an amazing day from rum, tasting rum, cake, winery, sightseeing, photo, ops, and lots of laughter and jokes, I would highly recommend them and we had the best day with Nikki. She listened to what we like and cater more toward us. She offered recommendations after the tour of things to see and do we felt very safe and she was with us the whole time but 100% recommend this and 100% recommend Nikki .
Our guide was so knowledgeable and friendly! He accommodated our entire family including our 1 year old son, we will definitely book again! Highly recommend !
Nicki was fantastic. She tailored our tour where we are not drinkers she took us to a homophathic place. Her knowledge of the island and its history is amazing. I messed up on the date and they notified me in advance so I could change it to the right date. Customer Service all the way.
Really great time. Our tour guide was Nikki, and she was wonderful. She was a local, so she knew the people who worked at each location and got us in and out smoothly. We could take as little or as long as we wanted, and she provided a wealth of information. We highly recommend!
Nikki was an amazing guide and this tour was great value. Nikki is such an enthusiastic person, excited to tell us all about her island home, and we learned so much about Nassau and its history. The stops were well planned, and the snacks along the way were an unexpected bonus, especially the conch fritters! (Thank you Nikki) I heartily recommend this tour and make sure you ask for Nikki. She made the whole trip special!
This is one of the best tours you will get of the island. They give you exactly what you want. It is a great mix of history and fun stops. This is great for everyone!
While on a Royal Caribbean cruise, we took a tour with Nikki as our tour guide and she was amazing. So fun - and told us all of the history and also current goings-on. We toured a few places, highlights included the rum cake factory, the rum distillery where we got Piña coladas (the best I had on the trip) and then we even went to a tea shop called Tasty Teas for some treats and souvenirs. We also saw Queens Staircase and Atlantis. Nikki made the day so fun and dropped us by the beach at the end of the tour. Highly recommend choosing a tour with a local rather than one of the larger tours or tours run by Royal Caribbean. Thanks Nikki! Love ya!

We had a great experience. Nikki was a great tour guide. Extremely friendly and very caring. Couldn’t have asked for a better tour guide. Jerry was our van driver. Very friendly and sociable
I want to give a great review to my tour guide in Nassau. He was very knowledgeable, outgoing, and made the interaction feel like we were talking to a friend rather than a stranger. He was amazing, and I would definitely use their services again!
This is a great tour. It has a nice amount of stops and time at each stop was enjoyable. Tryon was very knowledgeable of the area and brings extra fun to the tour.
Nikki our driver/guide was so much fun! She gave us history of both Nassau and the Bahamas. She also pointed out buildings and sites along the way.
Shout out to our incredible tour guide, Nicki! She made the day one to remember. From the beginning, she brought the energy. She had so much passion for Bahamian culture and was so fun. She went above and beyond and the extra mile. She shared so much about the local culture. We loved getting to go to the rum cake factory, chocolate factory, distillery, and the steps. So glad we decided to book this tour. I cannot speak more highly od llf it and have been on a lot of different tours in my time.
Tyrone was wonderful, very accommodating, and knowledgeable. You could tell he loves Nassau. We hit all the highlights of Nassau and tasted a lot of good food. We had a great time.
Nice overview of some island spots . I liked the Queens steps. Disappointed that you cannot see a lot of the areas of the Atlantis unless you pay but still beautiful to see!
Where do I even start to put into words the absolutely AMAZING and one in a lifetime opportunity I got to experience this tour of Bahamas with Tyrone Tour guides through Nikki !! She is an absolute gem!! She was so professional yet personable to make me feel comfortable on my solo tour!! She had so much knowledge about the island but conveyed it in a way to keep you engaged!! I got to learn so much about the culture, I got to see prominent landmarks, and taste some of the best chocolate I have eaten!! Anyone looking for an excursion please book this one!! You will NOT regret it 10000/10 highly recommend!! Thank you Nikki!!
I appreciated how knowledgeable our tour guide Nikki was. She afforded us the opportunity to see the real Nassaus Bahamas! We drove through local neighborhoods, sampled rum cake, enjoyed the history and sight of the Queen’s staircase. We were also able to visit the chocolate factory and visit the rum distillery. Unlike most tours that are just history facts, our tour felt as if we were visiting with family who was showing us around town. I would definitely recommend! The air conditioned transportation was the cherry on top. I don’t think we would have survived the heat otherwise. Thanks again for a wonderfully unforgettable experience!!
Our guide Nikki was fabulous. We learned so much about the history and culture of the area. Would definitely recommend.
We had an amazing time on this tour! We were traveling with family ranging in age from 8 to 70, and every single person in our group thoroughly enjoyed it. The tour made multiple stops, giving us the opportunity to experience and taste a little bit of the Bahamas along the way. Our guide, Tyrone, was absolutely incredible. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about his island. As a local, he shared fascinating history, interesting facts, and personal insights that made the experience even more meaningful. If you're visiting Nassau, I highly recommend this tour. It's a fantastic way to see the island, learn about its culture, and create great memories with the whole family!
Tyrone was terrific such a wealth of knowledge about the history of The Bahamas and the local culture! So glad we did this tour enjoyed every minute!
We had an excellent time learning about Nassau, the Bahamas and the rich culture. Thank you to our guide Nicki. She was an amazing guide, was passionate, knowledgeable and really took great care of us!
Nikki is wonderful tour guide, all guide should strive to deliver that kind of experience. It was wonderful to learn some of the history on this Island and others as well.
All I have to say is Nikki Nikki NIKKI is your girl. She not only has a deep knowledge of the island she calls home, but her energy, kindness and genuine Bahamian personality, in my opinion, is unmatched! You will not be disappointed with her tour of Nassau. Don’t hesitate..Book it.
I recommend this tour. Our guide was great!
Nickie knows the island, loves it dearly, and apparently knows half the people on it. Her vehicle was comfortable and air conditioned as we traveled around town during an extremely hot day. We learned the history of the island, traveled through both residential and commercial areas as well as tourist spots like the Queen's Staircase for over 3 hours. We got many samples of local goodies from rum cake to chocolates to conch fritters (which were the best we've ever had!) Our 4 and 5 yo were with us and she was great with them. You could skip the stop at Atlantis as it is just a huge American casino, but it does reinforce the deep divide between the foreign investors and the people who actually have to live there and feed their families. Highly recommend this excursion.
Nikki was awesome! She made the tour fun, engaging, and enjoyable from start to finish. We learned so much about the history of the Bahamas, its culture, and its people. She was incredibly knowledgeable, and even our kids were entertained by her stories throughtout the tour, which made the experience enjoyable for the whole family. Nikki's passion and enthusiasm really stood out. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the Bahamas!
This tour is legit, 10/10 would recommend. Take you to a lot of places to explore and very friendly. I recommend the tour guide “NIKI” she is the best !
I went solo on the tour while my friend enjoyed a day at the spa. I'm soo happy I decided to go out and explore! The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and fun, plus you get some delicious samples. I came back with tons of island information to share!
Fabulous excursion about the history, culture, & food of the Bahamas. It was perfectly balanced. Thank you so much!
Wonderful tour. Well organized and very knowledgeable tour guide. KRon was a humourous and knowledgeable tour guide. He kept us on schedule but didn't rush us along. At stops he offered to take pictures of us and answered all of our questions. We felt like VIPs as he ushered us through tour groups and made sure we had seats at the distillery to enjoy our drinks and conch fritters. Highly recommend!
This was an amazing excursion. So informational and just the right amount of time. Was nice to get back into the cold van each time to drive to the next place to visit.
Nikki was our tour guide and Jerry was the driver. It was so easy to find Tyron to start the tour and immediately they started off well. There were a couple of cranky people on our tour and Nikki took it in such stride, she was hugging everyone goodbye at the end including the cranky people at the beginning. I had 3 children and my parents along for the tour so ages 7 to 76 with us and Nikki and Jerry were great with us all. The tour gave us a great highlight and a little truth and perspective about Nassau. We got to see and experience a lot in a short amount of time without ever feeling rushed. The humor and genuine fun Nikki seemed to be having was contagious. You could tell.she loved her job and it made such a difference. My mom who has traveled all over the world was so impressed and said she has never seen a tour guide hugging everyone goodbye. Nikki called us "Family" all day long and truly made us feel that way. Excellent tour! Highly recommend Nikki and this tour!!!
This was an amazing tour! Karon was an excellent tour guide! Would highly recommend the tour! The rum cake and chocolate factory are a must see! The Watling distillery had best Pina colada and conch fritters!
Wonderful experience with excellent driver & tour guide.- I must say a Well guided tour. Thankful for their kindness in touring us around the beautiful island of Nassau, Bahamas.
K-Ron did an excellent job in explaining history of the country and ensured we had a great experience!!
This was a great experience with a fantastic guide! We now have a great understanding of the culture.
Nikki was INCREDIBLE! We absolutely loved this tour and learning, and laughing with one another. There was much fun, history, special humbling moments, and special goodies. We would schedule again with NO hesitation!
The tour started as soon as I gave my name. In that initial interaction, i knew that me and Nikki were going to have a great time together. My initial prediction was right, the time spent seeing Nassau through her storytelling was both adventurous and educational. Our first stop was the rum cake factory. Those cakes are yellow gold baked in a bundt pan. I bought a 6 pack of various flavors to share with friends and family...maybe. LOL! And then to have a shot of rum at 9:30 in the morning, now that is a wake up call for sure. All of the stops in this tour are impactful for tourism and insightful for the history and the current state of the Bahamian people. And if you do nothing else on this tour, get the CONCH FRITTERS!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you Nikki for a fantastic time. All the best to you and the operator of this tour.
We went thru Tyrone Tours and had his son Karon take us around Nassau it was wonderful . Very very nice and explained a lot about the island.
Karon was our tour guide. He did a fabulous job tailoring the stops to a very specific interest. My husband is a big James Bond fan and wanted to see the locations on the island where the various movies were filmed. This is an unusual request but Karon delivered. I highly recommend this company especially if you are on a cruise ship.
