Electric Model T Ford - Cultural And Historical Tour

OVERVIEW

Drive through beautiful downtown Nassau in an electric-powered replica of a Model-T Ford that will add a touch of nostalgia to the experience. You will pass some of the capital's most culturally and historically significant destinations, including the Queen's Staircase, a 66-step entryway to Fort Fincastle that was hand-cut out of solid limestone. After crossing Nassau Harbor on the bridge to famed Paradise Island, you will get a glimpse of the lush Versailles Gardens and pause to enjoy Cabbage Beach, a stretch of sugar-white sand that is incredibly photogenic. Many of the island's most luxurious hotels, including Atlantis, overlook the beach. You will also stop at hilltop Fort Charlotte, a fortification that the British built in the 18th century. Although 42 cannons are perched on its ramparts, not one was ever fired in battle. The guides there wear historical costumes that will bring that time period to life, much like the Model-T reflects the early 1900s.
