I’m very surprised about the constant statement that Bahamas is super expensive. We used to travel there growing up as a bargain Caribbean destination. My family owned a hotel.

Trust me, it was awesome but not expensive trip. Then again we traveled in August/September back in those days. Because it’s a bit cheaper than high season.

[@olayinkaburrows3737]

You are perfectly correct. September is usually the slow season due to back to school. There is a resort across the street from Atlantis where if you stay there you have access to Atlantis grounds.

Great video! I’m Bahamian through my father and have dual citizenship. I was born in the states and lived in Nassau from ages 9 months until 6 years. I’ve been back in the states since. One thing I want to point out is the indigenous population of the Bahamas is the Lucayans/Taínos. They were “Black” and were already there. The minority of the inhabitants came from the slave trade. I know this from doing my genealogical research. Ancestral DNA tests are a farce, but familial DNA tests are usually accurate. Thanks again for showing my ancestral home!❤

The bird man is your typical street guy in Nigeria, he's trying to get a free drink 😂

[@TayoAinaFilms]

😂

[@OrisakweJennifer]

So accurate 😂😂

[@calebndu8651]

He definitely got his free drink 😂 A real G!

[@doranroberts4895]

As a Bahamian myself , we love a good free beer 🤣

[@lesleyrigby7108]

Thank you for putting the Bahamas 🇧🇸 on display.

[@fazepolar01dshotu38]

This video was interesting i watched from start to finish and as a local bahamian who lived here all my life i learned a thing or two 😂😂 hope you enjoyed your stay 🇧🇸🇧🇸🇧🇸

[@foxylady6901]

Right! I've never been to Clifton and never knew slave houses still exist 😮

[@thedukeofyewaland]

This has to be one of the top 3 videos from you I've watched, if not the best, enjoyed every second of it.

[@adelekeadebisi]

The local really seems nice

[@KimberlySamugana]

I am here screaming “Tayo is holding a pig like it’s a baby” This is crazy 😂😂

[@tiahnelson2867]

I love this video you show Bahamas from all different angles. For a person like me who hasn't been to Bahamas. I'm ready to go Bahamas rn

[@StrachanFamilyVlogChannel]

I’m from the Bahamas living in Canada and you make me can’t wait to visit my own home 😅. This was beautiful to watch our history, culture and people are sooo rich ! Thank you for representing us 🇧🇸🙏🏽

[@DareAbiodun]

Tayo will soon find himself a wife in one of these places, if you don't already have one lined up😄. Make sure you share that story with us too o. Love your journey and your videos.

[@martinezerasmus1256]

No word can describe the feeling one gets from watching Tayo's vidoes

[@1danaknowles]

Nice video great job with the editing and content and as a proud Bahamian I think you did us Justice!!!!

[@syebethel]

So happy watching this, very educational and real. That's what it's like in the Bahamas, visiting or living; the cost, the people, talking a lot of jokes and general friendliness, the stability. New subscriber here 😊 🇧🇸 🇧🇸🇧🇸

[@bedinabebe4521]

Tayo congrats on your Bahamian vacation🐚 Prices seem to increase significantly since covid. I've seen less at Sheraton & British Colonial. Good you found the Fish Market & Fish Fry. There is a beautiful Zoo & Botanic Gardens near the Fish Fry. Andros, Bimini & Eluthera are great islands to explore, Grand Bahama is Touristic. Kalik is most relaxing🍺 Cable Beach, Nassau is beautifully famous🌊

[@MrSamAdah]

This is the best Bahamas video I've ever watched. It is a much closer look at the local life

[@globbs2581]

Yes Tayo visit as many Caribbean islands perhaps you can go on to Jamaica for Easter at the end of this month to perhaps the Dominican Republic,Barbados,Trinidad and Tobago,Antigua and Barbuda and not forgetting StKitts/Nevis and many more.You can look at the many activities or festivals of these islands and visit them.There is always something to do or go to.

[@michaelfredericks-c9b]

Don't go to the Dominican Republic they don't like African looking people there, if you doubt me ask Dr Maponga or Antigua.

[@okpevictory612]

Tayo, I had a good laugh all through this video especially when the man said Nigeria. Bahamas is beautiful, and it's beautiful you always have a good time everytime you travel to a new space. 😊😊

[@jkoidarville6939]

I grew up in the bahamas, it was great, I'd recommend going to st Thomas on your next trip, the other half of my family is from there and as much as the bahamians love to chill and vibe the vi people love to party, go during carnival and you'll have a good time.

[@ruthgara574]

Welcome back Tayo, I have been looking for you, is been long, I saw Ur recent content, tnk God, you are back to feeding us, with good content 🙌🙌👏.

[@sphinxnoir8159]

[@JesusFaithTravelVeganFoodie]

Keep up the good work I was touched by all your efforts and transparency when you said you were alone for your birthday and that you didn’t like nyc because of social anxiety issues Me too… I’m fascinated by all your travels young man and proud you have the courage and strength I’m way over 50 and use to travel everywhere and my favorite place is the Bahamas 🇧🇸 ❤ I traveled to Nassau and Freeport with my mother and friends from NYC many years ago ❤

[@temmyzaide]

[@cbobbsdeh5525]

It has been an amazing thimg to see so many African content creators traveling to and exploring the Caribbean in the past few months. I_am_Marwa,Dee Mwango,African Tigress,Wode Maya and Miss Trudy.and Tayo Aina...you have brought some invaluable content and experiences to the diaspora, and the world,that has inspired other people to get on with the business of traveling, and experiencing the different peoples and cultures of the world..keep up the great work that you and many others are doing..and even though I am from a Caribbean island (St Thomas,USVI),I haven't been to many of the places you've been to, but I am even more excited now to vist them because of the experiences I've seen. Continue to do this good work, and bring the diaspora closer to unity..
