The experience

You'll ride one of three modern ATV models (Can-Am Outlander, Polaris Sportsman or Kawasaki Bruteforce) across the terrain of New Providence. Each machine carries two people, so you can bring a passenger, and a guide stays in radio contact through a headset so you hear directions and information without stopping. A cooler of water travels with the group to keep you hydrated through the ride.

The route connects five distinct stops. You start at Queen's Staircase, the 66 steps carved into the landscape, then move to John Watling Distillery to learn the history of Caribbean rum in the Bahamas. Next is Graycliff Hotel, where you'll tour the cigar, wine and chocolate factory before a brief stop at the rum cake factory to sample the local pastry and pick up souvenirs. A 15-minute pause at The New Duff lets you taste guava duff, the famous Bahamian dessert, before the final stop at Arawak Cay, where you can buy and eat local food of your choice.

Pickup is included in the price. Drivers must be at least 21 years old and carry a valid driver's license on the day of the ride. Children from age 8 can join as passengers. The experience runs 3 to 3.5 hours total, and the guide speaks English throughout.
