★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,307 reviews · from $165Top rated

Explore Nassau in a private, air-conditioned jeep with a costumed local captain such as Calico Jack, Slick Rick, or Captain Kleen. You’ll visit the Queen’s Staircase, caves, Graycliff, Tasty Teas, and John Watling’s Distillery, with pirate stories, island history, tastings, and time for photos.

“The Pirate Tour of Nassau was outstanding! We had Pirate Calico aboard the Ghost vessel. Calico was dressed the part but what was more impressive was his amazing information and history about the island and the five stops we made. We had plenty of opportunities to get out and stretch our legs as well as sample island treats along the way. My favorite was seeing the Graycliffe cigar room and tasing the Pina coladas at a rum factory. Calico got us back in time to board our ship and we all agreed it was fantastic tour.”
