Top Jamaica Day Trips - page 37

Rihana was the most amazing hostess. She gave us history on the area during the drive and made sure we always had what we needed during our beach time. I even got a nice massage on the beach! Food and drinks were delicious. Highly recommend. Thank you, Rihana!!!

Dowey was fantastic! He arrived exactly on time and exchanged his contact information so that no one would be lost at the different locations. He was extremely knowledgeable about the area and gave mini history lessons as we took the drive. He acted as a caring father figure and warned us of the to-do’s and not to-do’s. I had an incredible, unforgettable time!

Anyone wanting to see Montego bay or learn about its history should do this tour. The guide is very informative and has so much knowledge about Jamaicas history and about Montego bay. You’ll see parts of Montego bay you would never see as a tourist and get to know a real local.

I'll start with the great! Carlos, our guide and driver, was amazing. Very friendly and we enjoyed his commentary. Highly recommend him as a tour guide. Next, the river guide, Duane was friendly and informative and we felt very safe throughout the whole river run. Crazy how they ride stomach down on their tubes and guide us here and there like that! Bamboo Beach Club was very nice. We had chairs reserved for us )thru the tour) which made it nice to get off the bus and go right to our chairs. The included lunch was good...jerk chicken and yellow ride. Drinks were cold and strong and yummy! Now, getting to all that goodness was not as pleasurable. The chaos at the port led to us not leaving there until after 10:15. After rushing off the ship, there were plenty of people there who worked for Bamboo Beach club, but only a few had any idea what was going on. They took buses and buses of VIP Beach Club people to THEIR buses, while we stood there as there were only 11 of us it seemed they were looking for a smaller bus to take just us (that is how we got the wonderful Carlos...he has his own bus/company that Regae/Bamboo Beach must have contracted to take us) The ride to the river was closer to 50 minutes (only 2 ships docked in Ocho Rios) therefore setting us back even further. Becasue of the delays we had zero time to shop at port when we got back. A 5 hour excursion took 6.5 mostly due to the chaos at the port. I realize they are a secondary excursion vendor and would not be give priority for set up to receive passengers, but a better system of getting off and onto buses needs to be implemented. I will also say, they were the ones in charge of getting even the Carnival excursions onto buses...definitely not efficient like Carnival usually is. The tour, the guides/driver and the river run was amazing and worth it for sure.

We had a great day! Tubing was fun. The tour guide was lovely. We didn't jump into the water so the tour was shorter than 45 minutes but we had a great time. When we got to the beach club it was really quiet so it felt like a private experience. We enjoyed the small plates and the drinks were generous too. An all round fantastic experience!

Should you be fortunate to be hosted by Petal and Shipley you are guaranteed to have a memorable time . From pick up to drop off they were unbelievably attentive , knowledgable , welcoming and friendly . One love !! The trip was amazing value for money seeing as we visited 3 different attractions . Firstly, we visited the black river and was lucky enough to have a great guide and spotted at least 10 friendly crocodiles and lots of wildlife . The skipper even shook hands with one . The YS falls were amazing . However, due to recent heavy rainfall the current was very strong . Great place . Lastly, we visited Appleton Estate . We had a great lunch and the tour was hosted by Peter who was funny, knowledgeable and informative . The rum tasting was good fun . The journey home was an experience due to a heavy downpour of rain and Shippy navigated us safely home through mainly floods and cajs 😂 Petal served some light refreshments on the way back which made the 3 hour journey back most pleasurable . One love !!! 🇯🇲🇯🇲

Mightens Tour treated us well. Our driver, Lorna, was fantastic! She encouraged us to talk and ask questions and let her know if we needed anything. She engaged with us, getting to know where we were from and our lives. She talked about the different Parishes as we passed through them and she answered our questions. She was very knowledgeable about the culture and history of Jamaica. We greatly enjoyed our trip and traveling with Lorna as our guide. Iconic Rick’s Cafe was so amazing! From the vibe, food, drinks, live music, and watching the magnificent cliff divers. Simply jaw dropping! 7-mile beach with its multiple colors of clear, blue water, and the soft, white sand was so beautiful! The entire day was relaxing! Thanks, Lorna, for making our trip fun and enjoyable!

Bradford was amazing! He took us to get some Jamaican beef patties. The best I've had. He took us souvenir shopping, and he stopped and let us get a picture in front of the Negril sign. He took us on to Margaritaville and Rick's Cafe where we had a great time. He was very informative on the Jamaican culture. He took good care of us and we had an amazing time.
