“Une activité qui nous fait visiter des magasins de thé miraculeux, magasin de rhum, de chocolat, de cigares, un bar, un escalier de 64 marches, et un fort de 20 X 20 où il faut payer pour entrer. Nous n’avons même pas pu voir le parlement, caché derrière des estrades. Très, très bref survol historique; quel déception ! Le tout pour 125 USD/pers. Très déçus. Si c’est ce que Nassau a de mieux à offrir, c’est bien triste.”
