Smooth tour just like Rum
This was a beautiful tour and we were driven from Bahia Lux in Runaway Bay all the way for this tour. Our guide was such a safe driver and the tour and tasting on the Appleton Estate was sleek and very well organised. Strongly recommend this tour.

South side day trip from Montego
We toured Appleton estates, ys falls, and Floyd’s Pelican bar. We had a great experience at each location thanks to our driver, Renardo from Jamaica Mesmerizing Tours. He made sure we were accommodated at each location while giving us information about places along the way. He communicated well and made sure we got to where we were going safely. We enjoyed him so much we requested him to drive us to a second day!

Great experience, highly recommended
Patrick was fantastic…. Spending 8 hours driving the roads of Jamaica is not an easy thing but he did so amazingly well. Great guide, car was clean (and cool thank god!). Would highly recommend him and would use him again

AMAZING DRIVER and EXPERIENCE for Floyd's Pelican Bar and Appleton Estate Rum Tour
This experience was a one of a kind! They have food and drinks available for purchase. I ordered the garlic shrimp and my friend had the fried chicken. Both were very good! We also ordered "The Pelican Bar Special" which was a mango and strawberry frozen daiquiri. Delicious!! Highly recommend to wear your bathing suit under a change of clothes, I wish we did because I was itching to get into the water, but we had the Appleton Estate Rum Tour earlier that day and we were unsure if we could change. Next time, we definitely will.
The Appleton Estate Rum Tour was also an amazing experience! We got to learn the entire rum making process and got to sample along the way! I don't want to spoil too much of the process :)
Randy, our private driver, was very attentive and ensured we had everything we needed and gave us a history of the island and helped us learn more!

The best way to see and learn about Jamica
A great way to see and learn about Jamica. We were lucky to have two guides, a driver Jeremiey, and a guide and future driver Henry. Our first stop was the Appleton that’s it’s just the Appleton Estates or is it Appleton Estates. Where we learned all about the the process of making rum, but also the history of making rum at the Appleton Estates. Our guide there was Reisia she was great. We had fun comparing the difference between making wine, which we are very familiar with and how they make rum. We then went to pelican Island. Which is not an island but a shack on
Pilings in the ocean. Unusual but fun.
But the best part of the two were our two guides. They were absolutely fantastic very knowledgeable and learned so much about the history and the people of Jamaica. Thank you Jeremy and Henry you guys are the best.
