Once in a lifetime experience you will not want to miss - There simply aren’t enough words to fully explain how amazing this experience was. Captain Eddie and his son were the most incredible, caring, and knowledgeable guides we could have ever hoped for. Full disclosure: I’m an anxiety-ridden, overprotective mom of three young kids (9, 7, and 5), and I was nervous about booking an excursion that wasn’t affiliated with our cruise line. But from the moment we met Captain Eddie and his son, it was immediately clear that we were in the most capable hands. Our safety and the quality of our experience were clearly their top priorities. One of the things we loved most was that the entire day was just for our family of five. We didn’t have to deal with large tour groups, crowds, or waiting in lines—it was a completely private and relaxed experience, which made it so much more enjoyable with young kids. We told them we were hoping for beautiful scenery, snorkeling, and a little history about the island—and they delivered all of that and so much more. We swam with sea turtles, learned about the island’s history, toured Pablo Escobar’s abandoned home, visited what has to be one of the most pristine white sandy beaches on earth, and finished the day with lunch at an incredible on-the-water bar and grill that I’m certain isn’t on any other tour itinerary. I wish I had better words to express just how special this experience was, but I truly don’t. Do this excursion—you will NOT be sorry. Without a doubt, it’s a day of memories my family will cherish forever.

It was very fun. We hung... - It was very fun. We hung out with the pigs, were able to hold and feed them. The kids absolutely loved it. Then went snorkeling and saw tons of fish at rainbow reef. Then went and saw sea turtles. One of the best excursions we’ve been on.

Just a good time tooling... - Just a good time tooling around the Bahamian waters with Captain Paul and his mate. Swiming with pigs, snorkeling and even finding a sea turtle in the wild was a good time.

Fun day on the water - The captain was excellent. He made sure my friends and family had a great experience. I would recommend them for any group.

Captain Chris was amazing! - Reserved the tour for my mom’s first trip out of the US and we had a great experience. Snorkeled with fish and turtles, walked on the beach, saw the pigs, and took in all the scenery. Gorgeous day for a boat ride and Captain Chris made us feel right at home. Thank you!

Great way to spend the day on Nassau! Don’t hesitate - Wonderful way to spend the day in port at Nassau! We got a nice view of the island from the water, saw some celebrity homes, and enjoyed rum punch and other drinks with our guide/ captain Bodie. Bodie was laid- back, personable, safe, flexible, and a pleasure to get to know. He took us to 2 good snorkeling spots and then to swim with the pigs. All 3 were fun and captured the flavor of the Bahamas. Wee wouldn’t hesitate to recommend JNC Tours and would book this again.

Perfect for a family of 6! - We had a blast with Eddie and Courtney! They were so friendly and took us to some awesome snorkeling spots where we saw so many different fish and even turtles!! We got there early before a lot of other tours, so we had some spots all to ourselves! I would definitely recommend booking with them as a private tour. This was a million times better than getting on a crowded boat with a bunch of strangers. We were able to spend as little or as much time at each place because it was just us. The boat was very nice, and we were so comfortable. They provided snorkeling equipment for us and bottled waters. We made a lot of great memories. Thanks again for such a wonderful experience!

Put up with the pig swim to get to paradise - Great time. Best excursion we had on our cruise. First leg was visiting the pigs. Paid an extra $25 pp. We didn’t swim with pigs. We saw them crapping in the water before we got on the island. We fed the pigs and then took some pics with the pigs. Then back on the boat. Clearly not the best part of the trip. But the trip got better as we moved along. Pig swim is a little bit of a scam. We next part of the trip we passed “Gilligan’s Island”. Supposedly looked like Gilligans Island. Not really. Next island we visited was where the turtles hung out. We jumped in the water and snorkeled with some turtles. Very cool. Last stop was Rose Island aka paradise. Captain Eddie set anchor and we jumped in for a swim. Literally no one else was there. Our own private beach. We swam for about an hour. There was some coral reef nearby and there were plenty of fish to see. Very relaxing and appreciated the solitude contrasting the 5500 people on our cruise ship. Captain Eddie and his son were super cool and were open to whatever we wanted to do. Great excursion for my family of 5 on a private boat.

Highly Recommend - Captain Eddy was Great! - Captain Eddy Smith was absolutely fantastic. He took us to four different spots and was flexible on where we went. The boat had plenty of shade (which is needed in the hot Bahamian sun) and was very comfortable. Captain Eddy was a great guide - helpful with the kids and put safety as a priority. He also provided historical facts about the islands we passed. Highly recommend!

Bodie was great! The... - Bodie was great! The experience was worth it. His rum punch really made the experience extra special and his food recommendation
