Bites of Nassau Food and Walking Tour

1.Bites of Nassau Food and Walking Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 3,168 reviews · from $99Our pick

Spend about three hours walking through old Nassau with a local guide such as Princess, Lisa, Mark, Pierre, or Lelly. Visit five independent food businesses, sample conch fritters and Bahamian comfort food, sip a rum cocktail, and see Graycliff and Government House. The tastings add up to a generous lunch, but expect heat, uneven ground, and plenty of walking.

“This tour was so much fun, and Lisa was a fantastic guide! My spouse and I enjoyed trying all of the different foods, and learning about Bahamian history and culture. Everything we ate was so delicious and fresh. We definitely felt safe and thoroughly enjoyed our time in Nassau. Thanks Lisa!”

“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.”

We loved it so much that we booked a similiar Swimming with the Pigs on Get Your Guide - WOW, total difference! That one was 1.5 hours late, they constantly lied to us, didn't give us alcohol as promised and let us go into an area that THIS tour said was not allowed due to shark attacks. We did this tour in 2023 and later that year there were shark attacks on tourists. This tour is GREAT, book it. Do NOT go…”
