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

Spend about three hours walking old Nassau with a local guide such as Princess, Lisa, Pierre, Mark, or Captain Ron. Taste conch fritters, Bahamian mac and cheese, plantains, chocolates, and other local dishes at five independent food stops, with a rum cocktail at John Watling’s Distillery. Come hungry, wear good shoes, and bring water.

“My husband and I went on this tour and got lucky to have it (and Lisa) all to ourselves. The food was delicious, Lisa was extremely entertaining and it was great to have someone show us around downtown. We were shown some great spots, that we visited again, and ate food that we would have never found on our own. Thanks Lisa!!”

We even bought a bottle. PS it's cheaper at the distillery. There's a surprise at the end that's totally worth the walk. We would definitely recommend this tour.”
