Memorable exper

It was a long day but very memorable. As rum drinkers back home, we loved the Appleton experience and of course, the tasting experience. Y’s falls was beautiful and surprisingly quiet. We had a lovely guide who took us across the falls and took some amazing photos and videos for us. Black river cruise was great for spotting wildlife. Saw several crocodiles and bird species. Kevin was our driver for the day. He assisted us and was our support every step of the day. Upon our request, he took us to a local food stop where we experienced the real authentic Jamaican food 10/10 We can’t praise Kevin enough. Very patient, very kind and very informative. He helped to make this a very memorable experience. Be prepared for the bumpy road conditions as the roads have lots of potholes. Loved this day.

Just Do It!

Marc was our tour guide and driver. He had such a great personality and was a wealth of knowledge on Jamaican history which made our drive to the various locations an absolute treat! We learned so much and also shared so many laughs along the way! We chose to stop at YS Falls, the Rum Tour, and the Pelican Bar. All fantastic choices! Marc was also kind enough to take us to a restaurant off-the-beaten-path to try some local food for lunch. Overall great experience! Would highly recommend!

Know before you go

Be sure to bring a bathing suit and water shoes, must-haves for safely exploring the falls and for swimming in the natural pools.
Some pools are deep enough to require decent swimming ability, but some are shallow enough for children to wade in.
A kiosk at the falls sells light snacks and hot dogs.
