Worth every penny and more - Mother Daughter Cruise 2024 was such a success. Tyrone Wilson's VIP Taxi and Sightseeing Tour was amazing. We saw so much more than we would have on our own. Tyrone, you should know, we wanted to bring Karon back home with us. He was amazing, fun, witty, educational and we now claim his as part of our family! He is surely one to be proud of!

Just do it! - Nikki was beyond amazing! This tour is 100% worth the price. Nikki even went out of her way to modify the tour to see how the local lived when we ask to see how the locals truly lived not what other tourists were seen.

Fabulous tour - Tyrone put out lots of effort to make sure his guest has the ability to store purchased items in a cold ice box. He provides cold bottled water during the tour. We enjoyed learning about the island and the places we visited. The van was nice clean and smells pleasant. He was quite a historian.

Nassau tour - Went over Nassau’s highlights like Rum cake tour, Atlantis Casino/hotel, Queen’s staircase, chocolate factory, and John Watling’s distillery. Kron knows the island very well and gave us an informative tour and history of Nassau for over an hour or so. His father also provided us with iced water before the tour. We felt safe overall. I would recommend this tour to everyone visiting Nassau. P.s. thanks Kron for getting us snacks at the end of the tour! That was nice of you!
