Hi all, I'm desperate to see the swimming pigs in the Exumas but that is not a shore excursion formally offered by any cruises. I've found lots of day trips from Nassau but they all leave at 8am. There is one company that departs at 9am but they won't wait for me or give me a refund if I am running late. For anyone familiar with the docking/disembarkation process in Nassau- if the boat (Mariner of the Seas) is scheduled to be in port from 8am to midnight, how soon can I reasonably expect to get off it after it arrives? The tour operates out of Paradise Ferry Terminal, which is either a 30 min walk or ten minute drive from the cruise ship pier. Are the streets too crazy to try to get anywhere in a car in a hurry when the ship is offloading? Thanks!
