Famous Swimming Pigs Tour Bahamas - Full Day Powerboat to Exuma from Nassau

8 hr return trip to the Exuma Islands of The Bahamas. WOW what an experience. This is a fast speed boat ride 80 miles south of Nassau so be prepared as it is high pace but is absolutely worth it. Feeding the Iguanas, swimming with the baby sharks and then swimming with the pigs. Just unbelievable Tyson and his crew were brilliant and lunch was great at Staniel Cay Yacht Club. Highly recommended. Highly recommend

Fantastic excursion with Hidden Beaches! The entire day was well planned and very organized. Would highly recommend this full day excursion! Staff was very nice and knowledgable and did an amazing job navigating around the storm that was in the area during our trip.

This was an amazing trip we had great fun weather fab and our guides Tyson and Leslie were tops

My daughter and I had a blast on this excursion. Everything went smoothly from beginning to end. The animals were friendly and the water was beautiful. The tour guides were very helpful. Highly recommended

The best excursion excursion we’ve ever been on. The a hidden Beach stop was absolutely breathtaking

So much to say about this experience! Bare with me!First, let me say, this is the first review I have ever made.Overall, seeing the pigs, swimming with sharks and feeding iguanas was amazing. I can’t recommend this more!!!! What an incredible experience. Just maybe not with this company.Dudley our taxi driver was so extremely helpful, timely and we couldn’t have asked for more.The flight was on time and fairly quick and painless. For the record, we did the flight tour so it was higher priced, but less weather prohibiting. The taxi, air tickets, lunch, beverages, tour by boat were all included.When we landed at Staniel Cay, we were greeted by Ronaldo, our tour guide. We were then taken to a boat via a golf cart. This is where things went south. Throughout the day, we weren’t really spoken to by Ronaldo. We were told when we signed up for the tour that we would have pop and beverages on the boat included in our fee. But that wasn’t offered. We were never offered a beverage, yet Ronaldo drank beer while driving us around. Second, we were told we would be given food to feed the pigs. Not true, we weren’t given anything to feed the pigs, so we pet them and found some carrots that another tour shared with us. Oddly, Ronaldo was feeding the pigs and had food to feed them. But we were given none.Ronaldo kind of did his own thing and didn’t speak to us much. Third, there was another couple on our tour. Great couple from California. They spoke with us throughout the day and agreed it was as if we had no idea where we were going next, how much time it took to get there, how much time we were spending there etc. Ronaldo essentially didn’t speak to us. So when we got on the boat after the pigs and he drove for over a half an hour to get to the sharks, we had no idea if it was a three minute boat ride or an hour boat ride. But he drove so fast that his drink was spilling on me and my bag and I couldn’t ask a question as I was holding on for safety and no one could speak because it was so loud. Keep in mind, I was on this tour with my three children who were also holding on and not speaking. They all had their heads down and were holding on not moving because of his driving.When we arrived at the sharks, he told us there was an add on fee per person to swim with the sharks of $10 per person. When I called him out on that being untrue, he quickly backed down and said I was right we didn’t have to pay.We then left the sharks and he mumbled to me that he was going to take us to the iguanas quick and then to the airport. It was 11:30 in the morning and our flight was at 5?!?!?! I said I thought lunch was included in the trip. He then said we could do that too.So after the iguanas, he drove us to a restaurant, Staniel Cay Yacht Club. Nice restaurant, good menu, horrible flies. But we’re in the Bahamas, so it’s fine. We put our napkins over our food while eating and swat flies away with our free hand.We then left lunch and looked around and Ronaldo was nowhere to be found and the boat was gone. We asked the waitress if she knew who he was and if he’d be back and she rolled her eyes and stated he’d come back at some point.So after lunch we bought some T-shirt’s at the restaurant and sat on some rocks waiting. When it appeared he wasn’t going to be back for a while, we randomly went strolling around the town that had no stores or restaurants, just a church and some broken down homes. After we returned from our walk it seemed close to the time of check in for our flight. I asked the waitress again if Ronaldo was coming back and she said she thought he would. But....it was close to our flight check in time and we hadn’t seen him in hours. He never told us he was leaving, we had no way to get in contact with him etc. So my three children and myself walked to the airport. We checked in for our flight and waited to board. Shortly before boarding, Ronaldo showed up at the airport on a motorcycle with a girl on the back of his bike holding our beach towels. We then got on our flight and got out of there. All in all, the pigs were so cool to see. The sharks were amazing to swim with. And the iguanas were an unexpected surprise. I would highly recommend an excursion like this to anyone as these were incredible experiences. But for spending over two thousand dollars on one day, I would have expected our tour guide to treat us better. I would have expected that the beverages I didn’t pack or bring with us because I was expecting them to be included as stated, would be given to us. I would have expected to feed the pigs with the food that I was told would be provided for us to do so. I would have expected my boat driver to not be drinking beer. And I would have not expected to walk to the airport with my three tired children so we wouldn’t miss our flight.This tour company has an opportunity to have a great experience. Because the pigs, sharks and iguanas were an incredible day. I just wouldn’t recommend that experience with Ronaldo. As he is not worth over two thousand dollars for a day guided by him.

The whole trip was amazing! The two guys on the power boat was so nice, down to earth and helpful! I highly recommend this trip to anyone who wants to spend an amazing day with discovering the islands and animals (nurse sharks, iguanas, swimming pigs) at Bahamas!

Me and my friend enjoyed so much, had a really good time in Bahamas, weather is good and tour guides explained everything in detail, smooth drive to all the island. Thank you!

The entire trip was great. Leslie and Tyson were fantastic, very personable and a lot of fun. The also gave interesting information about all the small islands.

HIGHLY recommended!! The Crew Leslie, Tyson and I cannot remember the 3rd guy sorry were welcoming and hospitable, always checking on us! I was travelling alone and unfortunately the start of the tour was daunting, as the water was VERY choppy!! I was constantly being thrown around and had no one to hold on to, once the guys noticed I was struggling, they moved me up front next to the captain, from their it was plain sailing....literally. The guys pointed out the various cays and gave a little history. At each stop, they gave information on the Iguanas, the Sharks who were actually friendlier that the pigs, in my opinion, and the Pigs. The lunch stop was good too. If you go to the Bahamas, then I HIGHLY recommend this tour.
