Time to update the Nassau Port Guide! ❤

True! Part three of our current Freedom Of The Seas series is a complete walk around of the new Nassau port, but some of that footage probably needs to be worked into an actual port guide in this style!! :D

Hi guys, I'm a Cruiser of Carnival Cruises for many years (1986 Jubilee). Thank you for being so honest about how much to love to take a cruise, and what it's worth doing so. I will always follow you and your adventures... Jeffrey's Cruises VLOGGER!

We were just in Nassau in December. We went to Junkanoo beach and had an amazing time. We were able to snorkel quite a bit and my son and I got to see an octopus just off the cement pier, it changed colors and then swam away. It was amazing. I wish I had seen this video prior to us going, it is very informative. Thanks!

That's awesome! We still haven't made it over to Junkanoo yet ourselves. Glad to hear it was a good day!! :D

Blue Lagoon Island is my favorite sport on the entire planet- highly recommend! Thanks for the video, love the series! I stayed at the comfort suites on Paradise Island and yes you can use all of the Atlantis facilities. It was great- really cute hotel too.

Once again, I have to say this is a wonderful and fab series. Thanks.

We went to Nassau in January 2019,on a seven day Carnival Dream. Our tour guide was "Sexy Mary",she was a wonderful person. She took us anywhere we wanted to go. Look her up if you ever in Nassau.

Very nice, thanks for the tip!! :D

This is great! Loving this series , will definitely rewatch when we go to Nassau for the first time next year! 🤘🤘

Love the series. Very unique! ❤️🚢

Hi Dee and Jay! I love this series...so informative! Thanks for the info! Hugs!!

Thank you, Dee and Jay! We're going there in a few months and appreciate this great information!

Great video thanks for sharing!!

Great info. Was there in 2010. Did the glass-bottom boat. Going back next year. Pig swim sounds fun, might try that.

Thanks for the info! We're going in March!

Going to be in Nassau in November had to watch your port guide. I took notes.

cool video, my first time in Nassau I did not get off the ship. Even though I did watch your blogs about Nassau before I went, this video help me decide on my next time to Nassau I will get off the ship. Your channel is the best. Thanks to you three cruises in the bag.

We talk about staying on the ship at Nassau from time to time, but we usually get off anyway and find something interesting to do... :P

Love how you break it down!!! Not sure what a perfect score is 10 or 5. Keep it coming

@parodeejay

4 жыл бұрын

Ah, I thought we said at the end of each video, but I may have missed one, ha ha... perfect score is a 10 and would be something like a private island, say Half Moon Cay or Princess Cays where food is included and there's a ton of stuff to do. :D

I I think we have been to Nassu about the same number of times that you have. Unless one books a tour to Atlantis, to me that is a one and done experience. We have walked to Junkanoo Beach and used the facilities and it is FREE! That said one does pay for a lounge and an umbrella, but they are cheap!

Excellent Video, Very Helpful, Very informative. I actually walked to Atlantis. Needed to get my 10,000 steps.

We are booked to do the Nassau Native Quest and Beach in January.

That's awesome! We've looked at that excursion so many times, back when it was inside the fort, and never went for it. Hope you have a great time!! :D

Hello, if you are ever in Nassau and want to swim with the pigs, since it takes a long time, do a cruise that either stays overnight or stays till late at night. We did Blue Lagoon on our October 2019 cruise on Carnival Liberty, we did all the free things like swimming and the food. We did walk to the area with the gift shop and the swimming with the dolphins and it was super nice over there. Oh, BTW this is Traveling with Hayden but on my computer account!

I was wondering if you might have an updated Port Guide for Nassau since upgraded the cruise port. Also do you have Progreso (Yucatán) &/or West coast Mexico Port Guides. I enjoy watching you Port Guides, very useful information.

Thanks for another great video - we have been quite a few times to Nassau and agree about the BCH - with all that construction in the area, we'll just wait to end up over that way when it is all complete. Now I know where the Queen's Staircase is - never ventured over there - TIP....great authentic Greek restaurant (upstairs) at Bay/Charlotte Street - we stopped there in 2018 - OPA!........:)

Greek food in the Bahamas? Nice! Haven't ever seen that!! :D

I’ve gone to Nassau on 6 out of the 8 cruises I’ve been on. Never really got a chance to shop because although I’m not bother by it the vendors constantly shouting about hair braiding and taxi rides freak my kids out lol I’m good at saying no thanks and ignoring them. Hopefully I can venture out. Agree with going with a group when walking to the Queens Staircase.

Great video. Swimming with pigs in Nassau I've got to see that. Rock on.

Oh my goodness! I LOVE Dee's piggytails!! SO CUTE!! I laughed at Dee's saying "bring the snacks along anyway"! That's totally my strategy (don't take only fruit though). Thanks for this great port guide. We haven't ever been to Nassau and don't even have it on our itinerary on our future 9 cruises we have booked. T he swimming with the pigs area intrigues me, but I wonder how much pig poop there would be there, as well as that I have seen someone getting bit by the pigs there. I probably would look into that Comfort Inn deal if we go there. Someday we'll get there!! ❤️

We always bring cling film and foil onboard so we can wrap up food from the buffet and go super cheap during your port day!! I know, but i go all out with the fare so need to crimp elsewhere.

Blue lagoon is awesome, you should go!!!

Cable Beach a mile down the road , nice Beach and Goodman's Ba both just a $1.50 bus ride away or $5 pp taxi, this is where all the all inclusive resorts are

I saw Sean and Stef in your video. Cool.

How much is the water taxi to Atlantis? Thank you for all the helpful info! Looking forward to going to the Bahamas in January. Love your videos!

Both a land taxi or a water taxi can usually be had for $4 per trip, $8 round trip, per person. Cruise Radio has a fantastic step-by-step guide on how to locate and purchase the water taxi tickets, if you're leaning that way. cruiseradio.net/getting-paradise-island-nassau/

I'll be in Nassau this coming Nov. Thought about city tour, but that is blah. Will instead try adventurous excursion for first time.

Hey Dee & Jay, are you doing a port guide for Princess Cays?

@parodeejay

4 жыл бұрын

We've got it on the list, but not really scheduled at the moment, since it's basically a private island with free food, free fun, and all that, hah... but I'm sure we'll get it covered. We did Half Moon Cay several years ago, so we might as well do Princess Cays as well, eh? :P

You can do that with ricky and Laura maybe.

Thanks for the volg, I watched you madi gras volgs, what is your opinion on key west and Freeport, , do you have volgs on them, if we decide to book this cruise , we may to the zoo garden or paradise island in Nassau

Great video! But I am very selfish and I would love for you guys to go on a Disney cruise. I was directed (while watching KZread on my television) to a video of a vlogger taking his first Disney cruise. It was interesting because of all the activities and interaction with Disney characters. However it was kinda boring and all I could think of was how amazing it would be to see Dee and Jay on a Disney cruise interacting with Mickey Mouse and company......it would be fabulous!! So selfishly I hope you guys can go on a Disney cruise really soon!

I am just wondering if British colonial Hilton has restrooms or a place adequate for changing when using it With a day pass? Also, do you know what the prices are like for lunch at their outdoor grill?

I am going there in Nov this year
