Best experience ever! - We had the best experience with Capt. Ramsey w/ Bahamas land and Sea tours! The views are incredible! Swimming with pigs, sea turtles, fish and docking up on a beach was totally worth It!

Perfect Time!! - We stopped in Nassau on our cruise, and we had an amazing time with Captain Dillon!!! He was really attentive to our needs, very relaxed, & offered us chips & drinks. He was great with our little kids who were curious about parts of the boat. I really appreciated that Captain Dillon let us decide when we were done in certain areas, and I never felt pressured to "move on." That was the biggest benefit of a private charter: we really got to enjoy snorkeling & the pigs at our leisure. He was mindful of when our cruise was departing, and ensured that we made it back with plenty of time to spare. It was really nice getting to relax and not worry about timing. We told him straight away that we wanted to see pig island, so he prioritized that. One island was closed due to waves/wind from a nearby hurricane, but he took us to a second location. He found sea turtles for the kids to snorkel with, because he knew they wanted to do that too. I highly recommend this charter, and have nothing but great remarks about our captain! Make sure you read the listing description-- transportation to/from the cruise port & entry to the pig island are both an additional fee. (Both optional.) We knew to expect this.

A great day in Nassau - It was a very cool day in the family the Captain Ramsey took us safely and we can enjoy places that a traditional tour would be impossible. we swam with the pigs and then we had a good time snorkeling and also visited a paradisiac beach with a lot of attention and a lot of affection. the driver was also a highlight the part we spent a lot of safety

Seriously, Book Now - Stop thinking about it, and just book this trip. It was the highlight of our Bahamas vacation. We taxied to the dock from Atlantis ($29). We arrived a little early, as did our captain, so he raced us over to the pigs and we got the whole beach to ourselves! (Pigs are $25/person). Piglets for the kids to hold. Snorkeling stop and sea turtles stop were great, but the final beach stop was incredible!!!!! We could have spent the whole day there. Captain McKinney was wonderful. Lots of soda/water and rum punch (with plenty of rum in it), plus chips. 10/10.

5 STARS! Book the private boat! So worth it - We had the most wonderful day out on the private boat. Captain McKinney was AMAZING and made sure we saw everything we wanted & that we had the best time. My kids (one teen and one 7yr old) LOVED it...and it was nice not having to fight crowds for the pigs. We saw SO many fish and sea turtles snorkeling, the Capt knew exactly where to go for this, & we enjoyed time on a private island. & The rum punch and snacks did the job! The boat ride itself was incredible. Highly recommend this company and a private boat, we will be back and use Captain McKinney every time!

Best time in the Bahamas - Best time in the Bahamas! Captain Dylan Ramsey was the best! We snorkeled over a beautiful reef, swam with pigs, sea turtles, and hung out on a peaceful island! We will do this again!

Captaining at its finest - Captain Dillon was excellent. The pig experience exceeded expectations (from my perspective), my kids loved it (as expected). The snorkeling was good but the weather turned and Capt Dillon took us on an amazing boat ride of Nassau and New Providence dodging the rain. 10/10.

Action packed afternoon fun - We started the day visiting the pigs (cost was $25pp cash) - we got to hold the little babies which was a hit with our 11-yo. Then we did some light snorkeling where we saw beautiful purple fan coral and some fish. Then we went in search of sea turtles and jumped in the water to get a good view. We ended the afternoon with a short stop at a quiet white sandy beach. Our captain was friendly and knowledgeable.
