点评:I booked an all-day excursion with Hida Ingraham-Kempski for February 7, 2025. She had coordinated with a local birding guide, who unfortunately was ill. This was not a problem since I had already gone on two birding trips.
We first visited the farmer’s market, where we had Brenda’s conch fritters, the best on the island. We also visited the various vendor stalls. Hida is a true local and knows everyone! Next, we stopped at several beaches, including one with a lot of conch shells. Perfect picture-taking opportunities.
We went to Garden of the Groves, which was very enjoyable, and where we were able to do some birdwatching. We spent quite a bit of time there, but we planned on visiting the east end, so we made our way along the coast. She showed me a neighborhood described as the Beverly Hills of the Bahamas, with luxurious estates. She took me to various local settlements as well. Further up the road, Hida showed me the Causarina Bridge, the high point of the island, where people were rescued from Hurricane Dorian in 2019. She is very knowledgeable about the history of the island.
We wrapped up our day with a picnic lunch that she prepared herself. It was great getting to know Hida and spending the day with her. She will arrange your tour so you can visit places of particular interest to you. I highly recommend her tour.

我们首先参观了农贸市场,在那里我们吃了 Brenda 的海螺馅饼,这是岛上最好的。我们还参观了各种摊位。Hida 是真正的当地人,认识所有人!接下来,我们在几个海滩停留,其中一个有很多海螺壳。完美的拍照机会。
我们去了花园树林,那里非常有趣,我们可以在那里观鸟。我们在那里呆了相当长一段时间,但我们计划参观东端,所以我们沿着海岸前行。她带我参观了一个被誉为巴哈马比弗利山庄的社区,那里有豪华的庄园。她还带我去了当地的各种定居点。继续前行,Hida 带我参观了岛上的最高点 Causarina 大桥,2019 年飓风多里安来袭时,人们就是在这里获救的。她对这座岛屿的历史了如指掌。
我们以她亲手准备的野餐午餐结束了这一天。认识 Hida 并与她共度一天真是太好了。她会为您安排行程,让您可以参观您特别感兴趣的地方。我强烈推荐她的行程。
