Our verdict
This tour fits a typical Nassau call (8:00 am–4:30 pm). It runs 4 h; ashore by 8:20 am, you can start by 8:30 am and be back at the gangway around 12:40 pm — 2 h 50 min to spare on top of a 1 h safety margin.
Rule of thumb: it keeps the safety margin as long as all aboard is 1:40 pm or later. Even a short 7:00 am–2:00 pm call works.
The operator picks up at the cruise port (it is on their pickup list), so the trip to the start point is part of the tour. We allow 10 min to walk off and find the pickup; look for the ground-transportation area outside Nassau Cruise Port (Prince George Wharf).
Among the 210 Nassau shore excursions we track, this is about average in length (the median runs 3 h); 92% of them fit a typical call.
Computed from the tour's published duration, the distance from the cruise pier to its start point and the typical Nassau call. Adjust your ship's times above to recheck.
About this tour
Upon the arrival, we greet our guest and start the travel with a slight City tour of the island as we make our way towards the beach then have a whole lot of fun by doing karaoke on the bus ride to and from the beach after they would have had an awesome time swimming with the pigs.
