Best vacay day ever!! - This was the highlight of our entire vacation!!! Our captain- Ramsey was very friendly. We saw sea turtles, peacocks and colorful fish while snorkeling and then he took us to the most beautiful beach area I've ever seen. We will book this again and have already told a lot of friends how much of a great time we had.

Excellent way to see the islands - We got a great crew and a hilarious captain who knows his way around. Private boat charter is great if you value privacy and do at your own pace.

Great Experience! - Captain Philip was fantastic! We brought my 3 year old and he LOVED captain Philip! We stopped at green turtle island for snorkelling. There were tons of shells on the beach that we didn’t find at our resort. We skipped over the second snorkelling spot at our request and spent about 45 minutes at one of the pig islands.

The best day! - We had a great time with Captain Robo and Ryan. Captain Robo shared his vast knowledge of the Islands and my teenagers loved him. They tailored the experience to our needs and we got in some extra snorkeling!

DON’T BOOK - The experience was okay. Our captain was awesome. I can't remember his name, I think it was Captain Lenova. My apologies. He was knowledgeable, friendly, professional, and apologetic of the boat condition. The boat was dilapidated and had engine issues. Apparently it was leaking oil and we could not go very fast. He worked on this engine while we swam with the turtles. Yes, we did swim with the turtles at Green Cay and it was amazing. We skipped the other snorkeling because I feared the boat would not make it back. DO NOT DO THE PIG SWIM. I had lost my wallet before we left our ship and had issues with cash, but I had my phone and Apple Pay. The pig beach at Athol was run by a bunch of weed smoking thugs. The transfer to the island was on an inflatable tube raft pulled by a seadoo driven bv a dude who wanted to jerk the inflatable and spray people more than being professional and courteous. You could smell the weed well before you got there and there were families with children all around. Only three pigs around to feed and no one giving instructions. The card reader they had did not work but they boss allowed us to participate anyways with the notion they would get it from Bahamas Land and Sea tours, our Captain called Captain Kennedy and he spoke to me about payment, he was rude and aggressive to being with telling me that's not how it works and they don't pay the pig people. He eventually allowed me to pay via a link that didn't work, then we ended up paying via PayPal. The pigs and the taxi should be pre-paid before we get there to make it easier on the travelers. I would not do this tour again and will not recommend it until they get better boats and change partners for the pig swim. I saw the same complaint on other post about the boats, but figured it would be better by the time we arrived. They also charged much more for the taxi than they say. It was $60 instead of $40 round trip. The taxi service text the night before to confirm pickup, which I told and verified with Bahamas Land and Sean Tours that morning we would not be off the cruise ship until about 930, the taxi said they would be at the pier to pick us up at 915 am and any minute after that they had to wait would cost $1 a minute. I would not allow this, so they said to text them when we go to the pickup spot. We did and Issac arrived about 5 minutes later. The taxi service did send a name and picture of the plate the morning of our pickup, which was good. Issac our driver was great. No issues with the taxi except for the additional charges. Which I get, but I won’t stand for that kind of gouging. In summary, I would not recommend this tour company simply because of the equipment and their partnerships.
