We took a 6 hour trip to fish, spear fish for first time and see turtles. We had the most amazing time. The lunch was delicious and the crew were great. Very professional, caring group. Every thing was thought of to make sure we had a great time. We loved the island tour and even got to see a peacock!

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.

The Bahamas is a wonderful vacation destination; my family and I have previously visited the Bahamas on several time occasions. However, the car service provided by Rickyluv was exceptional. He was prompt during the several scheduled arrival times throughout our stay, whereas we wanted to mingle amongst the locals as much as possible in order to acquire an authentic expenerince whilst on the island. During my family and I outings, his demeanor, mannerisms, facetious nature, was respectful and entertaining in passage; providing exceptional conversational pieces amid our predesignated destinations. As a tourist, we were apprehensive on which locations to visit outside of the generic tourist destinations suggestively scripted by the resorts. By cause, our previous visits to New Providence we'd exhausted the generic tourist sites. Our goal was to experience more of an authentic, rare, and custom exploration the island had to offer. Along, with his extensive knowledge of historical context, fact, traditions, customs and culture; we were able to gain a finer understanding and appreciation of the beauty that the island of the Bahamas and it's' natives have to offer, lead a phenomenal experience. I was amazed at the Overall, we were throughly impressed by the phenomenal service Rickyluv's car service provided and recommend any visitors to utilizing his service as well.

Our day tour to Spanish Wells is packed with lots of fun-filled activities but also gives you lots of time to unwind, relax, and take in the beauty of the islands. Begin your tour with refreshing mimosas for everyone as you enjoy the powerboat ride to Meeks Patch, home of the Swimming Pigs!! Next you will take a short boat ride to the settlement of Spanish Wells, a quiet fishing village that is pristine and peaceful. Enjoy samples of conch salad, sky juice and conch fritters while you relax on one of Spanish Wells most famous sandbars which is known for its many shades of pink sand. After you’re done exploring, load back on the boat to head to a colorful coral reef for snorkeling and exploring off the beautiful Aqua Shores of Eleuthera. Up next is a delicious lunch at the Sandbar Bar & Grill on Russell Island. Finally, last but certainly not least you will dive overboard for more snorkeling before we head back to Nassau.
