Such a wonderful walking tour in downtown Nassau! We couldn’t have asked for a better way to spend an afternoon on our last day in the bahamas. We met with our energetic and funny guide, Princess, and she kept us engaged throughout the 3 hour tour. We went to 6 different restaurants, and at each restaurant she would talk about the local cuisine, as well as the rich history and culture of the Bahamas. Each restaurant was unique and delicious. Along with the the restaurants, we also stopped at a few key historical buildings, such as the Graycliff hotel, Parliament building, Queen Victoria statue, etc. where she would tell us more about the history. We learned so much about the Bahamian culture in this short walking tour, something that gets easily lost if you only stay at the big resorts. I highly recommend this tour and would love to take it again if I get a chance!

Namrata, thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. It's wonderful to hear that you all learned so much with Princess, and were able to explore Nassau outside of the resort! And we would love to host you again too! Cheers, Anna General Manager Tru Bahamian Food Tours

This tour is an absolute must perfect pairing great food with Bahamian history. Our tour guide Captain Ron was friendly knowledgeable, and entertaining. Despite the unfavorable weather conditions, Captain Ron remained optimistic and calm, which ultimately allowed all of us to follow suit. All of the tastings were delicious and provided us with an opportunity to sample food from restaurants we would have otherwise never known about in addition to learning about the unique stories behind each one.
Athena Cafe and Bahamian Cookin' were definitely personal favorites that we will go back to on our next visit.

This is a fun way to spend several hours in the port of Nassau. I highly recommend it as a great way to taste local food and see sites not normally seen. It is a walking tour, so it is very leisurely.

Loved it. Mark our guide was informative and made the tour interesting throughout. We never felt rushed and Mark always had an interesting story to tell of each location, and answered all of our questions, with lots of local knowledge and a bit of gossip thrown in for good measure! I would recommend this tour to anyone. Discovered husband was allergic to conch, Mark was alert and kept an eye on him for the rest of the tour. Hubby was fine, btw!

Our guide was funny and knowledgeable. In all, a great experience.

The tour featured 6 tastings. The first tasting was the biggest (the size of which was between a big snack and a small meal) which was perfect as it got us ready for the walking ahead. The remaining 5 tastings were smaller. Each stop was delicious, and we passed some cultural landmarks on the way and learned about the history of the area. At the end of the tour, our group could not agree on a favorite stop, which speaks to the strength of all of the tastings.

If you have 3 hours and are interested in learning about local culture and cuisine this is a great choice.

This tour is a must-do in my view. We met our guide, Princess, and she introduced us to local foods, culture, and history. The portions were all larger than I thought they would be (6 stops) and each was delicious. I would do this tour again. I’d like to compliment Princess for a great tour.

Fantastic experience seeing more of Nassau and sampling Bahamian cuisine! Captain Ron is friendly, fun, and knowledgeable! The food was great, and Captain Ron provided background and history of the foods and places we visited. Nice pace for a walk in warm, sunny Nassau! Highly recommend!

LISA!!!!!!!! She was amazing and made this tour so much more personal and welcoming. She made this tour worth it! This food was a great way to get to know the culture, but Lisa made me feel like I was home away from home. She gave great on-site on the culture and history of this beautiful island.

What can be said about Lisa that she didn't tell us to say! 😉 She was an utterly amazing guide for our walking food tour of Nassau. We are looking forward to turning up on Christmas day at her house, Lynn will bring the Rum Cake and I will bring the Ice Cream (Hagen Das vanilla).
The tour from Lisa gave some history of Nassau and the Bahamas and a perspective on Bahamian culture from someone living in it.  A great range of food from amazing chicken chowder to the classic Conch Fritter to the sublime Hurricane Rum Cake and spiced up with a Rum cocktail and a talking parrot. If you are looking for local history, fantastic food and laughs a plenty LISA is the guide for you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
