Overview

"No Crowds, No Buses, No Time Schedule but Yours!"

My guests have their very own personal trilingual Bahamian island guide for the day with just themselves and myself to enjoy all of the
sites of interest in both Freeport and Lucaya.

They are afforded a tour of all of the major attractions of Freeport and Lucaya as well as participating in their private Bahamian cooking class. They will learn how to make our most popular native dish of conch fritters and eat what they have cooked. This is a great fun activity for the entire family. Family time always has cooking and eating in the mix and this Bahamian Conch Fritter Cooking Exp. provides just the right combination of both.

After having finished our cooking exp. we will then enjoy a beautiful private beach for as long as time remaining permits before we return to the ship or your hotel. You will be able to swim, walk the beach, collect shells, sunbathe or simply enjoy a tropical cocktail on a magnificent beach on Grand Bahama.

    What To Expect

    Firstly, we will tour all of the sites of Freeport, including the Open Air Farmer's Market and the Bahamian Brewery where we make seven different types of beer and two types of Radlers. We visit the local settlements to sample our local baked goodies and where you can find other unique arts and crafts.

    Our lunch will be the Bahamian cooking experience where you will learn all about how we make this favorite national dish and try your hand at dropping a few fritters yourselves. Conch fritters are the most popular native dish in the entire Bahamas!!!

    After our Bahamian Conch Fritter Experience we will tour the Port Lucaya Marketplace where you have the opportunity to visit the Bahamas Maritime Museum(optional) and do more shopping and sampling of other Bahamian made goodies especially our local flavors of chocolates.

    Before returning to the ship or your hotel, we do have beach time where you can try any of our tropical drinks such as a Bahama Mama while enjoying our crystal clear turquoise waters on a magnificent beach.
