Mamma Gal Native Experience

Charlie was GREAT!!!! Polite, knowledgeable, and easy to listen too. He was SO informative all the while driving. He kept you so engaged and wanting to ask more and more questions. He took us off the beaten trail to see local businesses and a private beach to spend 30 minutes or so. You want a great experience, go with this provider and NOt the ship!!!

Excellent local tour! Charlie was so friendly and informative. It was a pleasure to see more than just the typical tourist spots and highlights. We learned so much about Bahamian culture that we wouldn't have learned on a larger bus tour. We had a chance to converse with our guide in a comfortable, informal setting. And the stop for lunch at Banana Bay was so enjoyable! We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you!

Our guide was very knowledgeable and the transition of getting off the cruise to getting on the van was very straightforward. Cinderella was right there waiting for us. We even sampled the conch fritters which my daughter loved!

This tour was excellent. Charlie was very informative and knowledgeable about the island. The fruit stand had the most ripe, sweet mangos and pineapple I have ever tasted. There is not much to do in Freeport but this made the trip worth it.

Charlie was extremely passionate and knowledgeable about all things Freeport. We were able to see local areas and experience the culture away from the tourist traps. If you are looking to see what bahamaian life off the resort is this is perfect.

We loved this tour and meeting Cinderella and other lovely Bahamians. The beaches were fabulous, lunch at Cleveland and Millie's was superb. Learning island history was awesome. This tour is a must. We had such a good time, we booked the East end tour too which was equally as great. We love you Charlie Cinderella. See you next time.

This was one of the best excursions my sister and I have ever taken- and we cruise multiple times per year. Our guide Charlie was fantastic. He made sure we saw everything we wanted to see of Freeport and that we had plenty of time at each stop. We loved picking up conch shells right out of the water and the private beach stop was breathtaking. Plus Charlie added a bonus stop at a local bakery on the way back to our ship which was amazing- best pineapple tart ever. Can't recommend this tour (and Charlie) highly enough.

The Mamma Gal Native Experience was exceptional! From the personalized laminated welcome sign (which we got to keep) to our on time delivery back to the cruise ship port. Charlie was AWESOME! Only 8 on our tour in a comfortabke air conditioned van. We loved everything from the stop at the beach filled with conch shells (no one else around), to the drive through small towns and learning about different trees and plants and info about the history and culture. We stopped at a perfume factory, which was lovely. No pressure but very affordable options for those interested ..a fun stop at a fruit and vendors market with free samples of conch fritters. Charlie thought of everything. Provided plastic bags for our shells, bottled water and was very knowledgeable and answered every question. Our last stop was at the private beach club. A slice of paradise. The beach was almost deserted and indescribably beautiful. The restaurant onsite offered scrumptious and affordable food with both seafood and burgers. The 2 hours there flew by as we ate lunch on the covered patio directly looking at the beach and then were able to walk, swim etc. Restrooms and outdoor shower were available. Charlie also toured us around multi million dollar estates and lots of government buildings etc with an interesting commentary. The best tour on Freeport any of us had ever experienced. A must do - and do again!
