Tour Nassau
A guided tour or shore excursion is a great way to learn about Bahamian history and heritage by visiting historic buildings and landmarks in and around Nassau. There are several points of interest which include the 18th-century Balcony House, the oldest wooden structure on the island; the Government House, home to the governor-general of the Bahamas; Queen’s Staircase at Fort Fincastle; Fort Charlotte, the largest fort in the Bahamas; and the National Museum of the Bahamas. Explore the colorful tradition of the annual Junkanoo festival. Get a taste of island culture when you sample the local cuisine.
Nassau’s hotel zone is located along the two-and-a-half mile powder-white stretch of sand known as Cable Beach. There you’ll find some of the island’s best resorts, casinos, and restaurants. If you take a short twenty minute cruise from Nassau, you can check out the Blue Lagoon Island swim with dolphins.
In addition, make sure to visit the Paradise Islands, home to luxury resorts, shops, restaurants, a golf course, and aquarium. Visitors can purchase a day pass to enjoy all of the luxury amenities at the famous Atlantis resort on Paradise Island.
