Cruise Stop in Nassau? Here’s How to Make the Most of Your Day

Make Every Hour Count with Taxi and Tour Bahamas 🚖🌴

Only in Nassau for the day? Don’t worry — you can still pack in culture, beauty, history, shopping, and beach time during your cruise stop. With the right plan (and the right driver), your brief island visit can feel like a full-on Bahamian adventure.

At Taxi and Tour Bahamas, we specialize in helping cruise passengers maximize their day in port. Here’s how to do Nassau right — stress-free, safely, and on your schedule.


⏰ First Things First: Timing Is Everything

Most cruise ships dock at Prince George Wharf in downtown Nassau. From there, you’re just steps away from:

  • Shopping areas

  • Historic landmarks

  • Local eateries

  • The famous Straw Market

  • Pickup spots for pre-arranged taxis and tours


🚖 Choose a Private Taxi or Guided Tour

You have limited time, so skip the large group tours and go private. With Taxi and Tour Bahamas, you get:

  • A customized itinerary based on your interests

  • Flexible timing to make sure you’re back at the ship on time

  • A local guide/driver who knows Nassau inside and out

  • Air-conditioned comfort in a clean, spacious vehicle


🗺️ Top Things to See and Do in One Day

Here’s how to experience the best of Nassau in just a few hours:

1. Queen’s Staircase & Fort Fincastle

Climb the 66 limestone steps and enjoy views from this historic hilltop fort.

2. The Straw Market & Bay Street

Shop for authentic Bahamian souvenirs, handmade crafts, and island spices.

 3. Atlantis Resort on Paradise Island

See the famous architecture, marine habitats, and maybe stop at Marina Village for lunch or photos.

4. Beach Time at Junkanoo or Cabbage Beach

Need some sun and sand? We’ll take you to a nearby beach with options to rent chairs or sip a cold drink.

5. Try Local Flavors

Let your driver recommend a quick stop for conch salad, cracked lobster, or Bahamian mac and cheese at a local favorite — no tourist traps here.


📸 Want Photos? We’ve Got You Covered

Your driver can help you capture the perfect photos, suggest scenic stops, or even take pictures for you at Nassau’s most Instagrammable spots — think colorful murals, colonial buildings, or beach backdrops.
