stanfran Posted February 14, 2014 #1 Share Posted February 14, 2014 We are going on a cruise Feb 22, 2014 and we want to go over to Atlantis and see what is there and then go to casino. What is the place way to get there from Nassau, Bahanas. I would appreciate any information. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galveston Cruiser Posted February 14, 2014 #2 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Take a taxi. Plenty at the port. Not the water taxi as it waits to fill up then you still have to walk to Atlantis. However, the last two times we were there, we could only go in the casino. They have closed everything else off except for guests and those who pay for day passes.

leaveitallbehind Posted February 14, 2014 #3 Share Posted February 14, 2014 (edited) Agree - private taxi. There are many at the pier terminal and an equal amount at Atlantis returning as this is a popular and well traveled route. Safe and inexpensive. And our last time there - December '12 Christmas cruise - we were able to tour the aquarium, walk the hotel grounds, yacht watch at the marina, and go to the casino. All at no charge. Not sure if they just weren't monitoring the aquarium that night or we looked like we belonged there, but we went just after dinner and stayed until about 10:00 PM and had free run of the place. Certainly could have changed since then but that was our experience. Edited February 14, 2014 by leaveitallbehind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seaster1 Posted February 15, 2014 #4 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Just there twice in the past 2 months. Get a taxi as soon as you leave the port terminal building. Make sure you agree on a price (no more than) 10$-12$ For the private ride to the hotel, for the both of you. If you arrange for a taxi inside the terminal it's 4$ pp and you have to wait till they cram all 16 of you in a mini van. The past few times we were there they were not letting anyone wander around especially the beach or aquarium area. Once at Atlantis You can walk around the outdoor shops and view the yachts and dock area and go to the casino and restaurants It is very easy to get a taxi back to the ship just go to the taxi stand. Again it's 4$ pp. be prepared for a wild and crazy ride!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memsy87 Posted February 15, 2014 #5 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Thanks for the info! Looking into visiting the hotel in April :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseapril Posted February 16, 2014 #6 Share Posted February 16, 2014 We take a van taxi from the pier. The vans wait to fill up- but only $5 pp and comfortable. Some of the regular taxi drivers keep pushing tours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sail7seas Posted February 16, 2014 #7 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I would suggest by-passing the water taxis. They may not be the 'safest' choice. As others have said, get a taxi and enjoy. It's only about 10 minutes with a ride over the bridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
