Tour: Just A Little Bit! (city tour of Nassau)
Welcome to the beautiful archipelago of The Bahamas, home to over 700 islands and cays, including the captivating city of Nassau. As Astronaut Chris Hadfield once said, gazing from outer space, "the waters of The Bahamas and its islands are the most beautiful place on earth." Embark on our tour, aptly named Just A Little Bit, to discover the wonders and secrets of Nassau. This 1-1/2 hour adventure promises to provide you with a cross-section of information about our charming country.
What to Expect
During this city tour, you can expect a total duration of 90 minutes. Our itinerary includes two main highlights:
Step 1: Queen's Staircase
As you approach Fort Fincastle, keep an eye out for a set of stairs carved out of limestone. These stairs were intricately crafted during the piracy era using only a chisel, mallet, and sometimes a hammer. A local guide will be present to give you in-depth history about the construction of these stairs. This fascinating stop will immerse you in the rich heritage and legends of Nassau.
Step 2: Fort Fincastle
Explore the largest fort on the island, built during the piracy era to protect the Bahamas from pirate invasions. This fortress was constructed by a Lord Proprietor sent here in the 1700s, and it stands as a testament to the resilience of our people. Please note that there is an admission fee payable at the admission office or booth to access the fort.
