Archie was very knowledgeable and gave us a great tour of Nassau. We were impressed by the level of planning for each stop of our tour and how much he was able to share about the history of the island. Highly recommend this tour to others!

Though I booked weeks in advance the guru didn’t show up so after 20 minutes of waiting I contacted him to let him know we were waiting (the 4 of us ) and 6 others who joined us from our ship. He said that he tried to contact me but I only saw a message he left 10 minutes before start time that he cancelled the tour. We were disappointed so I found a walking tour online same as the gurus and led it myself, reading aloud to everyone. We saved a few hundred dollars which we used for lunch. I wouldn’t recommend this person.
