Great tour - This was an excellent tour of Nassau. We enjoyed all of the stops and picked up some tasty treats along the way. Fonzie has a great personality and kept us entertained the entire time. We had two elderly passengers and she was equipped with a step for easy access to the tram. Highly recommend. Would even take this tour again if we were in town as we enjoyed her company so much!

Perfect for family with teenagers - We enjoyed this tour a lot -- it was perfect for me and my 2 teenagers. It was just the right length and number of stops, plus gave us a glimpse into the history of the Bahamas, so it was educational and relaxing. Our tour guide (Julian, I think was his name) was friendly and had a clear voice I could hear well. We didn't do any other paid shore excursions -- but really glad we did this one. Thanks Chippies! Oh, and the Tropical CONCH SALAD was amazing!

Great way to see Nassau - This was a great way to see part of Nassau that most cruise passengers never get to experience. Our tour guide Julian was great.

A short but fun filled tour to see Nassau - This trip was more than I expected. I feel like we got a great tour of Nassau and Paradise Island. We went to a beach for a break & tried Bahama’s beer, stopped at Arwak Cay & tried conch fritter & rum cake. Learned a lot about the island and walked up Queen’s Staircase. The transportation is open aired and comfortable. I highly recommend doing this tour!

Highly Recommend! - We took this tour on Monday. Our first full day on the island. And it was an excellent way to see areas you might miss otherwise and learn about the history of the island and their people. Our tour guide was amazing!! She made it so fun and interesting! She was the best!! I believe they call her “Funzy”! Highly recommend this tour and using their services! It was very enjoyable. A little hard to find the meeting spot as it is not marked. But if you wait by the benches right outside the Straw Market that is where they pick you up. Enjoy!

Great guide! - The tour was amazing! Besides having a little trouble finding the pickup spot, the tour guide was amazing and passionate. She took tons of photos of us and did a great job keeping up the enthusiasm. Would definitely recommend!

Tour with Chippies - The tour met at the Straw Market. The tour guide, Julian arrived at 12:45 so make sure you get To the market 30 min prior to departure. For what the island has to offer it was an informative tour with a few stops to experience the sight! Definitely worth the money!

Disappointing tour, find something else - The driver guide was great. Unfortunately the tour was not good. A bunch of pointless stops. 1st was to a “rum cake factory”. I guess they made them in back. We did a single file line in small dirty retail store selling rum cakes. Waste of time. Took us to the Atlantis resort and dropped us off for 40 minutes. No directions on where to go, what to see. Other stops were at best OK. I am sure you could do better than this tour
