I didn't know what to expect but this was an amazing day. Donald was so delightful. He went out of his way to make sure we saw everything. Dianna was sweet and cook a great meal that we enjoyed overlooking the ocean. It is a casual, laid back day but full of interesting things to learn. I'd recommend this to anyone heading to Freeport.

This restaurant did not live up to the hype. The mansion is beautiful; however, every single item served - both food and cocktails - were overdone, over-seasoned, overcooked, etc. it was just all either too sweet or too strong or too salty; just too heavy handed. Service was slow. Also the ambience was ruined by a raucous group of drunk Americans cursing and shouting. Nothing was said to them ever. We asked to be moved to a different room. One by one, every table in that room asked to be moved as well. About 8 tables total! Yep, that makes more sense than moving the a**h*les to a private room.

I really enjoyed the half day bike tour of Nassau and learned a lot about Nassau. Archie was a very good guide and I was happy with my tour! I felt like I saw part of Nassau that I would not have been able to see on my own. They are very professional too.

Enrique's professionalism made our business trip a success. He picked us up from the airport and fulfilled our unexpected requests of multiple stops along the way to our final destination. His pricing is fair and his patience is unmatched! Thank you for a great experience, I look forward to bringing my family back to partake in an excursion over to Pig Island!
