Our trip to Nassau was fantastic from start to finish. The hotel was clean and well located, and the guided visit to Queen's Staircase was a real highlight. Airport transfers were on time both ways.

Nassau is stunning and this package covered the essentials well, especially Cable Beach. The hotel could have been a little closer to the center but transport was easy.

We added a couple of optional activities beyond Arawak Cay ("Fish Fry") and don't regret it. Good value for what was included, and the food recommendations from our guide were spot on.

Swimming pigs day trip (Exuma, from Nassau) alone was worth the trip, but combined with Nassau Straw Market shopping (guided) this itinerary really delivered. Breakfast at the hotel was good every day and the local guide was knowledgeable.

Booked this as a solo trip and it was well paced. Ardastra Gardens and Wildlife Conservation Centre in particular stood out. A couple of the transfers ran a little late but nothing that spoiled the trip.
