Description

Discover the industrial part of Grand Bahama on a guided tour from the cruise port. Visit the International Bazaar, Church Row, and the pine forest. Stop at the Garden of the Groves and the Port Lucaya Marketplace. Start your tour with a visit to the International Bazaar, famous for its Tori Gate. Head through Church Row and the stunning pine forest, continuing along the scenic Sunrise Highway to your first stop. Stop at the Garden of the Groves and delight in the winding trails through lush vegetation, cascading waterfalls, and sparkling fountains. See the amazing chapel, which has been consecrated and is a great choice for weddings in the Bahamas as well as a prayer and meditation. Explore the Garden Shoppes and discover the sacred beauty of the Labyrinth. Throughout your time here, love the birds and butterflies, as the garden has been certified as a Wildlife Habitat by the U.S. Wildlife Federation. Take a walk down into the cool fern grove and admire the imposing limestone boulders that tower over both sides of the trail, or relax on the 'Lofty Fig' deck, where you will have the opportunity to purchase local delicacies and cool Bahamian drinks. Head to the popular Port Lucaya Marketplace, where there are twelve island-style buildings nestled on a five-acre peninsula, which overlooks one of the most complete Marinas in The Bahamas. Stroll among the eighty specialty stores, boutiques, restaurants, outdoor and indoor bars and cafes. Find the most luxurious and respected names in jewelry, china, crystal, perfume, and designer apparel and accessories, all at duty-free prices. With shopping concluded, be returned to the cruise ship docks. If you wish to stay longer at the Market Place, you are responsible for your own transportation back to the pier. Taxi shuttles run between the market and pier most of the day.
