The 15 Best Historic Nassau & Heritage Tours

23 reviewed

Three forts, a hand-cut staircase, a pirate republic and a colonial grid that still runs the country’s business. These 15 heritage tours are the ones that make sense of it, with prices, walking distances and which guides go beyond the Bay Street version of the story.

Pirate Jeep Sightseeing Adventure! - Price and what $165 buys you (and what to watch)

1.Pirate Jeep Sightseeing Adventure!

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,307 reviews · from $165Our pick

Ride a private pirate jeep through Nassau with AC, about 10 stops, and admission tickets where required. $165 per person for ~3 hours.

“The Pirate Tour of Nassau was outstanding! We had Pirate Calico aboard the Ghost vessel. Calico was dressed the part but what was more impressive was his amazing information and history about the island and the five stops we made. We had plenty of opportunities to get out and stretch our legs as well as sample island treats along the way. My favorite was seeing the Graycliffe cigar room and tasing the Pina coladas at a rum factory. Calico got us back in time to board our ship and we all agreed it was fantastic tour.”

She also went out of the way of the normal tour to show us the wall that was used for segregation until 1973. She was such a delight and really made this tour worth it! We were stuffed after all our tasters, conch fritters and lunch that was provided at the John Watling’s distillery at the end of the tour. This was a great tour and definitely not to be missed!”
