Around Town/Bahamian Cooking Experience

About this activity

"No Crowds, No Buses, No Time Schedule but Yours!"

My guests have their very own personal trilingual Bahamian island guide for the day with just themselves and myself to enjoy all of the

sites of interest in both Freeport and Lucaya.

They are afforded a tour of all of the major attractions of Freeport and Lucaya as well as participating in their private Bahamian cooking class. They will learn how to make our most popular native dish of conch fritters and eat what they have cooked. This is a great fun activity for the entire family. Family time always has cooking and eating in the mix and this Bahamian Conch Fritter Cooking Exp. provides just the right combination of both.

After having finished our cooking exp. we will then enjoy a beautiful private beach for as long as time remaining permits before we return to the ship or your hotel. You will be able to swim, walk the beach, collect shells, sunbathe or simply enjoy a tropical cocktail on a magnificent beach on Grand Bahama.
