Bahamas Air Tours - Miami, Florida

Julie ?.

This was literally one of the best days I have ever had. We were picked up from our hotel & taken to our small plane. We flew from Nassau to Exuma & we were met by our captain for the day & our boat. So much is included & everything is so well organised. We got to snorkel in Thunderball cave, swim with pigs, hold nursing sharks, visit the iguanas on their own island & take stunning photos on a beautiful sandbar. Lunch was also included. I cannot recommend this tour enough. It was a bucket list tour for me & it was better than I could have imagined. Thank you so much for making this day so amazing & one we'll never forget.

We had a day in Nassau on a cruise ship and didn’t want to stay in Nassau or go to Atlantis. Truly the day was an epic experience and so smooth from the ride to the Airport with Dave, Captain Bullet was an expert pilot that gave us a lot of confidence with his skill, and Captain Perry just made the day on the water at Staniel Cay a bucket list kind of day! Finished all of it off with a great lunch at the restaurant right before we departed to make it back to the ship in time for sail away at 5pm! These people take great care of you!!

I would love to thank everyone at Bahamas Air Tours for making this the absolute Best Day at the Bahamas I will ever experience!
It all started with Dave, our Shuttle Driver. He picked us up with a huge smile. He was so happy to do what he did, and he made the start of the trip so much fun! He spoke to everyone, was hilarious and was himself a Vibe, we loved him! Someone give this man some Fish Fry, he deserves it!!
Then we got dropped off at the airport and took a plane ride with Bullard, the Pilot.
He made the ride very smooth on the way there as it was clear skies and just WOW, the bluest waters you'll ever see. He was also very nice and welcoming.
When we arrived, we were introduced to Dexi, the Host of the tour. This lady was so sweet and kind. She walked us down to the boats and was here when we came back.
When we arrived at the boats we met Perry, our Captain. He made sure we soaked up every stop! he took us to Iguana Island, Pig Beach, Swimming with the Sharks, The Sand Bar, Thunderball Grotto and to see the Pablo Escobar Plane crash.
Let me tell you - All these stops are INCREDIBLE. Noone was bored of anything; it was all an adventure of a lifetime. To see the bluest water and all the animals and to just be there was the coolest experience of my life. Perry was so patient and talked us through every stop. He had snacks, waters, sodas, snorkel gear and towels on board. All things you needed! (But don't forget your sunscreen) it was hot!
Huge shoutout to Perry for being a wonderful Captain to us!
When the excursion was over, we made it back to the dock where we met back up with Dexi and she took us to the diner to have lunch. We met Dee who will give you the hottest Hot Sauce you'll ever have!!! Be careful! Dee was very quick in the kitchen and made sure everyone had what they wanted. She was giggly and fun. We all appreciated her.
I would love to give another Huge Shoutout to Dexi as she committed the sweetest act of kindness you can imagine.
The plane was getting ready to take off and I had remembered an adorable cute stuffed pig I saw in the gift shop. I was going to ask my husband for the money and had completely forgot during lunch. The pilot was eager to take off as a storm was coming and I ran out of time...Dexi saw that I was upset I had forgot about it, and that Sweetheart of a lady ran and got me one just before the Pilot closed the doors! It was the most amazing thing! I felt so special, and I loved it so so much. That was just the cherry on top of a perfect day. Thank you so very much Dexi! I'll always remember how you made me feel <3 DO THIS TOUR YOU WON’T REGRET IT!! *See pics, Just WOW

This trip was fantastic!! From the clear communication of pickup times, to the staff at the airport, and everyone in Exuma; we couldn’t have had a better experience. I would do this day trip every time when in Nassau. One of the highlights of our trip!!

Simply amazing! Everything was seamless and entertaining from hotel pick up to drop off. Communication before and during the trip was informative and timely. The flight to Exuma was so easy and quick, allowing us to get to the pigs before the other tours. BTW - the pigs DO NOT DISAPPOINT! I was "meh" about seeing them, but they were an absolute delight!!!! A highlight (the highlight?) of our Bahamas trip. The other stops on the tour were fun and well-orchestrated, and the scenery throughout was stunning. Captain Dave and his first mate Miguel ensured a smooth ride, answered all our questions, and tweaked the tour to the group's liking. If you are on the fence, BOOK! It is 100% worth the $$ and time.

Good: travel by air, and Bahamas is beautiful. You get to visit multiple islands within a day.

Bad: the music was super loud to a point my ears hurt, I asked the staff to lower the volume but no avail.

Ugly: you only get very limited time on each small island and you spend hours waiting to be picked up … it’s more like 3 hours of trip and the rest is all waiting.

I would recommend flying there via commercial flight, potentially stay overnight and book the day trip directly. That way you save hours of meaningless waiting and get more time on the beautiful beaches.

Overall, I think it was okay for $700+ cost, and therefore 3 stars.

Simply the best from start to finish. Bucket list ✅. Without a doubt this was the highlight of our trip. We will be back 🇧🇸☀️🐠

We had an amazing time with Captain Dave and his first mate. The memories made during this experience will last a lifetime. We saw colors of blue in the water that we didn't even know existed. We were able to have meaningful stops at all the advertised places with Captain Dave providing plenty of education and engagement. This was a very special day as we celebrated our honeymoon.
