Family of 5 enjoyed everything about this adventure. The entire trip, transportation, boat ride, the Rose Island beach was well organized. Rich, Rico, MJ, James and Gigi made the day perfect for us . They were fun and helpful. The pigs, especially , the little guys sweepea and batman, were wonderful and seemed to be well cared for. Lunch was delicious and there was plenty of places to sit and relax. It was clean and not overcrowded.We went on the afternoon tour at 11:30band were back at the hotel by 4:30. we paid $169 per person which included RT transportation and was well worth it. Taking a taxi would have been more expensive and not as reliable.
Amazing tour guides. MJ was awesome. 👏🏾 GG was awesome! The tour was well planned out. Food was great. Pigs were so cute.
This was our second time doing this exact excursion and we LOVE it !! This time was better than the first time because the water was warm . ALL the employees are amazing! Shoutout to A1 and GiGi !!! We didn’t wanted to leave the island !!
If you are considering swimming with the pigs, we’d highly recommend this crew! They made pick up and drop off seamless. The pigs were adorable and we had the chance to enjoy a secluded beach, snorkel, lounge, and enjoy a delicious hot lunch. You should keep in mind that the pigs are wild animals and do poop in the water, but the crew joked about the “brown apples” and quickly scooped them out of the water so you could continue feeding them and snapping cute pictures!
The private beach was great. Swimming with the pigs was very fun and interactive. I highly recommend this activity.
The overall experience was great. We did leave for the excursion later than we were supposed to. We also did not stop to see the turtles, which we were hoping to see. But, overall the pigs were so fun to watch. We enjoyed it.
Waste no time searching for other tours, Da Pig is the best!! We all had a blast, amazing Bahamian food, well-appointed private beach club, friendly staff and overall just a wonderful day!
Great experience. Fun team. Prompt pickup. Great for the whole family. Don't hesitate on this tour. Five stars all the way.
This experience was a bust from the beginning. First, we waited where the instructions said to wait and no one showed up to get us like we were told. There needs to be a sign like all the other vendors have. Then they left late because they pulled up to the dock late. When it was time for the pig interaction, the pig handler was just so rude when addressing several of the guests. Then he turned his rudeness directly to me. We were next in line to take a picture with the pig. Another group came up from the other end and he said they would be next. I spoke up. I said my friend and I have been standing there waiting patiently. He didn’t like that. Instead of saying, OK, or my apologies, he decided to respond with very rude comments. Totally uncalled for. Then the food was another disaster. They made us repeat the times that events would start. There was no announcement or whistle blown for the lunch. So, after 15 minutes from the start time for lunch, people started sharing out their food. They didn’t like that either and proceeded to take all the plates away to include from people that had plates. They would share out the food. They should’ve simply said that on the boat. Overall, this was a very poor experience. Late, rushed, unprofessional, and rude sums up this experience. It doesn’t even deserve a star.
Thank you for sharing your feedback, Sasha. The delay in the harbor and the confusion surrounding the meeting location were caused by circumstances beyond our control that day. Our team made every effort to minimize the disruption and keep the experience moving as smoothly as possible, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused. Regarding your interaction with the pig handler, we take any report of rude or disrespectful behavior very seriously. We would greatly appreciate any additional details, including a description of the team member involved, so we can investigate and address this immediately. We also believe there may have been an honest misunderstanding surrounding lunch service. Lunch is served individually by our hosts and is not an open buffet, which is why the team holds and distributes the plates, and we are sorry if the way this setting came across as abrupt or disrespectful. We would appreciate any further details about what was said or done at the time so we can properly review it with the team. Overall, the experience you described is far from what we aim to deliver and far from what we have consistently provided to countless happy guests. We take your concerns seriously and would truly appreciate your help so we can address them as quickly and thoroughly as possible. Safe travels, Dor H. Da Pig Beach Team.
This is an excellent excursion for families! We did this as a cruise ship excursion. The pick up point at senior frogs was walking distance from the cruise port -approximately a five minute walk which made it very easy from the start. The private beach area was very beautiful. The water is calm and a gorgeous blue color. The pig encounter is short, however, was an amazing experience. You will also be able to hold the baby pigs to take pictures if you’d like. The lunch was also very good to include barbecue chicken and rice and vegetables. There is also a bar area where you can order tropical drinks or sodas. We had about 30 people in our tour group for the day trip.
