I printed up a list of the shore excursions that they offer for Nassau. Does anyone that has recently sailed have a price list as that is not included on the info sheet? Thanks a bunch!!:)

I was wondering that too. Last I remembered, it was about a $5.00 taxi ride to Paradise Island. Not sure about anything beyond that.

It would be nice if someone had this info. :)

I would recommend you venture out on your own. Its cheaper and you are in charge of what you see and how long you see it!!! Once you get off the cruise ship you will be greeted by tons of cab drivers wanting to escort you around the island. Negotiate the price and be sure to be back to the ship by 6:30pm or you will be left at 7:00pm. The ladies I was with were very disappointed with the tour because the limo driver didn't stop for them to take pictures. They paid approximately $75. per person. I used the people to people program for free and saw half of the island.

Agree. Just walk off the ship to the end of the pier and you'll be bombarded with offers. I suggest you get past all these people and go inside the terminal. Get one of the free maps, decide what you want to do, and then bargain.

Go on to some of the other cruise lines tour descriptions so you have an idea ahead of time of what you might want to do.

There are vans that will take groups and just drive you around, take you someplace special, drop you off whereever you want, etc.

If you want to spend the day at Atlantis, go there and book your package there. The best ones run about $110 per person for an all beach day, use of all amenities, lunch (if I remember correctly), etc. There are several packages to choose from.

I did the June 12th - 15th cruise. We paid $80 for FIVE people for a little island tour (about 2 hrs) and then asked to be dropped off at Atlantis. Took a cab back to the ship - $4.00 each. Had lunch and then walked Bay Street for some shopping.
