str8outhagutr Posted March 14, 2014 #1 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Tomorrow me and my wife are heading out on Enchantment of the seas to Bahamas. It was a last minute purchase and I really have not had a lot of time to check things out. Our first time on RCI and to the Bahamas. My question is I know I can buy an excursion on the ship or online. But when we get into the dock are there tours that i can get. Just looking for a little tour of the city walking or van is fine. So please let know your opinions should i just book something on the ship or wait and get something when i get off the boat. we are there for 12 hours.

Clarea Posted March 14, 2014 #2 Share Posted March 14, 2014 (edited) Welcome to Cruise Critic. When you get off the ship, you will be inundated with people wanting to take to on a tour, or take you to Atlantis. You will have no problem finding someone to take you. There are also many Nassau Walking Tours you can find with a web search. This is one: http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?hl=en&ie=UTF8&t=h&msa=0&msid=212915410434543012134.0004943ae4a62b8cf9961&ll=25.081557,-77.339544&spn=0.037664,0.052314&z=15 Edited March 14, 2014 by clarea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted March 14, 2014 #3 Share Posted March 14, 2014 You can spend several hours just walking around the port area. Atlantis is a hotel with a casino, if gambling is your thing! They also have a big waterpark...but that will cost you big bucks! There will be tours onshore! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azmaui Posted March 14, 2014 #5 Share Posted March 14, 2014 We were just in nassau couple of months ago - excursions on a ship seemed pretty pricy so we just got off the ship, grabbed a cab (plenty to choose from - you can talk about rate before you get in) and driver took us to Atlantis. We got a day pass there (just by main entrance) and spent a wonderful day swimming, hanging out at the beach etc. grabbed a cab back, were thinking of walking around but area around the harbor isn't that nice so we just did some shopping and went back. Really no need to plan :) Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
str8outhagutr Posted March 24, 2014 Author #6 Share Posted March 24, 2014 Thanks for the input. We ended up getting off the boat and taking a tour with about 8 other people. Not bad for $20 dollars we went to the Steps and thru different neighborhoods and Atlantis. was about 2 hrs defiantly worth the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
