Christa was very friendly and knowledgeable and went out of her way to make our experience memorable. We loved going down the Queens steps instead of hiking up them and learned lots about Bahama history. It was a long walk but worth every minute of it.

First of all, we were thrilled to join this Kind Walk, and Christa was an absolutely amazing tour guide！ She gave us a heads-up on the weather conditions before we set off and advised us on what clothes and shoes to wear. Her explanations were detailed and interesting, and she took us to countless attractions. It's hard to find a more complete itinerary than the one she planned on Viator or Trip Advisor. She even made sure to check in on us, asking if we were tired or thirsty. The trip lasted for about 2-3 hours and was on foot, which is the only factor you might want to consider or prepare for in advance. But if you have good stamina, congratulations, it'll be an incredibly exciting half-day tour that you won't regret.Wanderer26043996794

Our guide, Christa was amazing. We learned so much about the history of Nassau, Bahamas. Unfortunately the weather was not good and we walked in the rain, but it didn’t bother us.

This is the tour to book if you want to learn about Nassau and the Bahamas. Authentic tour from a local where you are encouraged to ask questions and interact. You are going to learn so much because Christa is so knowledgeable and shares the history and culture of the islands while making a new Bahamian friend. You’ll hit all the downtown sites while learning so much. Look no further and book this tour. You won’t be disappointed. Christa was at the meeting point when we got there about 10 min early and easily recognizable from her blue shirt. Bring along your water, sunscreen and walking shoes but there are stops for water and restrooms along the way. I initially felt like I was having trouble finding a tour that would take me beyond the tourist spots and I’m so glad I found this one! I can’t say enough good things about our experience and we Highly highly recommend!! We also got a lot of good dining and other recommendations from her as well so be sure ti ask!
