Highly, highly recommended - This was the best. I know some people have fear of going to carribean countries and doing business with people that are not affiliated with the resorts. But in my experience, non-resort excursions can't hold a candle to these native businesses. EJay was hilarious, and a crew of us on an ATV tour to all kinds of places. You literally drive through Nassau. He took us to some really cool places. It all felt totally safe. I don't want to say too much because I don't want to ruin the surprise.
We had time to stop and eat (which was included) in a cool spot with a gorgeous beach. Then, it was time for a tiki boat trip to Pig Beach. Now, something unfortunate happened here. The boat broke down a 1/4 mile from the boat launch. But in no time at all, we were towed back. It was a motor issue the company could not have predicted. When we went back to shore, they were incredibly accommodating. They offered an incredible refund and still promised we would see the pigs the next day.
True to their word, they picked us up directly the next morning, took us on the incredible trip, and took us back home. Talk about a company doing more than necessary to make it right. I made sure to tip very well because they were just so generous.
So I promise you, this is a safe, fun, and memorable package.

I had an amazing time for my birthday - I had two great tour guides Quinn and Foster. The Atvs made it easy to get around and see the island. We did several stops sight seeing. The ride to the pig island was interesting seeing all the famous stars houses such as Derek Jeter, Ellen Degeress and Michael Jordan to name a few. The pigs were adorable and they were well trained. One of the best excursions they offer.

Amazing guides and memories! Worth the money!! - Absolutely amazing!!! We spent the entire day together beginning with the ATV tour and lunch followed by a boat ride to pig island. Our guides were beyond accommodating to make the trip memorable and customizable to our group. From taking pictures for us and music playlist to detours best suited for us. Highly recommended!!!

Best tour on the Island! - We had an amazing time! EJ knew everything there is to know about the Island and catered the tour to what we wanted to do and see. We loved riding the ATV's with him. Captain Mackey was awesome! He gave us a full tour of the Island by boat while we were traveling to see the pigs. Both EJ and Captain Mackey made sure we had a great time. We would 100% recommend this for anyone who is visiting the Island!

Amazing day with amazing guides - This tour was so much fun! Our guides were amazing, constantly checking and making sure we were having a great time and to see if we needed anything! We had so much fun. Seeing The Bahamas on AVTS was a 10 out of 10 experience for us. And of course how could you not love the pigs! Thank you so much for a great time!

BEWARE of this Particular tour. - First when we got to the ATV rentals we hung around for about 15 mins and they finally told us we are not doing the whole other half of the trip with swimming with the PIGS which was the highlight for me choosing this Particular tour. Next they never mentioned that we were not visiting the queens staircase they said it was closed Personally, I don't know how to set a step to be closed. They took us to the fort Montague first Admission, it was supposed to be included with the tour. But when we got to the entrance, they told us We would be charged admission to enter. Are so to speak tour guide. Which really didn't say much about anything that we visited Never told the attendance at the entrance that we were to enter for free. As stated on the itinerary for this trip. In place of the queen's staircase, they took us to a tea Store and we were basically rushed. Had no time to purchase anything. Fort Finn castle.
Was it on the itinerary and We never even went there. Lunch on the beach was a joke. They brought food in from some other vendor in brown paper bags. And it was a chicken leg, a tablespoon of corn, a tablespoon of what appear to be mac and cheese And two fried plantains And a bottle of water. On the itiitinerary for this trip, it said we were supposed to receive a Bahama Mama, there was a bar right there that we've done that. They never offered any bottles of water to any of us on the tour Or even offered to stop along the way mind you This was almost four hours. The a TV vehicles we're not in the best of shape. Some we're missing rear view mirrors And sharp edge pieces that were broken off the fenders. This trip was paid for in advance $800.
They did refund me $498.00 Because we did not go swimming with the pigs. Or the boat ride around the islands. As stated on the itinerary, even if they did all of that, this trip is way over priced. Because for what we did do they charged us a hundred and fifty dollars each. BEWARE of this Particular tour. They Also charged us $135. Round trip to pick us up. At our hotel which was literally ten minutes from the place. That was a complete rip off as well.

Uncomfortable - Captain Mackey is a creep!!!! He flirted with a member of our group, was drinking while driving and got in to a very loud argument over his commission when paying for pig beach!!!! Unbelievable!!!! The tour itself wasn't bad. The weather was beautiful and the pigs were cute so it almost made up for the uncomfortable moments. The ATV portion of the tour was fun and the staff is very professional.
