Do it early in the day. It can get brutally hot mid-day for doing such things.

There's really only one route on CC for the bikes to utilize, so not really any suggestions for route.

Basically, pretty flat, asphalt, some shade over behind Serenity Bay area, but mostly exposed to the sun. I enjoyed it, but it was hot and we took a lot of time making it around (including the lookout tower).

Loved the bikes and the tubes. Do not do the bottom glass boat. Waste of time and money. The kids loved the stingray.. .Any suggestions for Nassau ??? My kids want to do the Atlantis but at $179 a head OUCH plus the dolphin is $259!

You may want to book a room for the day at the Comfort Inn and Suites next to Atlantis, http://www.nassauparadiseisland.com/where-to-stay/comfort-suites-paradise-island/ I have not done it personally but I've read it's a great way to save money on the Atlantis excursion. You don't ever have to set foot in the room if you don't want to, you essentially check in, get your Atlantis bands, then check out and walk to the entrance to Atlantis. I've read some people do like to go back to the room and catch a quick shower before heading back to the ship. We did the Atlantis Excursion through DCL on our trip there and I have to say the "Lazy" river was anything but lazy and the absolute best water attraction I've ever experienced. You have to do the whole river though to get the experience. There are actually a couple places that you stay on your tube and it gets you on a conveyor belt going up to experience a couple "rapids" going back down. It is so much fun. If I was to go back to Atlantis, this is the route I would take. I believe there are a couple forums here on the Dis regarding the comfort inn if you do a search.
