YS Falls Tours and Tickets

It was fun but way too short at the falls. The crocodile river was fun as well and so much to see. Appleton was ok but the falls made up for any short comings.

We had a great personal driver the entire day. He was funny, engaging, and had a great personal touch to the experience.

First off apologies for the delay in the review. We signed up for the YS Falls, Appleton Estate, Black River Safari, Pelican bar experience. Unfortunately Appleton reclosed for tours after booking and we could not go. The tour company gave us a couple alternatives but we had already been to. Ultimately the tour manager made it right in refunding that portion of the tour. So kudos for that. Much appreciated on working it out with us Meco our driver was fantastic. Picked us up promptly. Gave us the run for of the day as we headed out toward or first stop YS Falls He gave back story to the towns we traveled through mixing in history, effects from the recent hurricane, personal stories and interesting tidbits throughout the entire excursion mixing in humor along the way. He even went out of the way to take us back by a school that shared the name of the town we live in to get a picture and the sign of the town that shared a name with our daughter. Our first stop YS falls was beautiful. A short 10 minute bus ride from the main station up to the falls gave excellent views of the country side. The falls themselves stunning. They had guides to help walk people across the falls and take pictures for you. I really appreciated the signs posted that tips were appreciated but not expected and to report any requests for tips. That was nice while I gladly gave our guide a tip it wasn't pressured like some other excursions during our time there. After spending some time at the falls we returned back to the head station to a meal of Jamaican Fried Chicken, Jerk chicken or shrimp waiting for us, which was delicious and excellent. Our second stop was the Black River Safari. Our guide there was top notch giving us the history of the area, inviting crocodiles up to the boat for some chicken and telling jokes along the way. While the views were beautiful it was kind of bittersweet to hear that the area took a lot of damage from the hurricane and it would be sometime before things returned to its original beauty. Finally we went out to the Pelican Bar for a few quick drinks. Meco kept my wife company while the rest of us went out for a couple drinks. Intriguing experience but not sure something I need to do again as was a bit nerve wracking for a fat man that can't swim riding out in a small boat, but overall all a fun time After that Meco drove us back to our resort giving us more history and info along the way. Over all a terrific time. Bummer about Appleton but that was not the fault of the tour company. They more than accomadated on that front. If I ever make it back to Jamaica I sincerely hope to do more excursions with Catch a Cab N Tours. Utmost recommendations. Thanks for the spectacular time guys Yuri & Renae R.

Loved YS falls Black River trip okay but that’s not the fault of the people who run the trip. The did their best despite the destruction due to the hurricane. Lived Peligan Bar. Tour guide was excellent.

It was okay. Glad we did it once. Would not do it again. YS Falls was pretty and the lifeguard that helped us up the falls and took pictures for us was great. Pelican Bar was neat - just super windy and expensive.

Our driver/guide George was wonderful. Informative on the drive from Sandals Whitehouse to YS pointing out beautiful landscape, cinnamon leaves, fruit etc and sharing his passion for the people of Jamaica. We were kept well informed with text/email reminders the day before our excursion. YS Falls was beautiful ! Picnic tables,changing rooms etc made for a fun day.

Dre was an amazing driver and tour guide. He was very courteous and had us rolling with laughter with all his stories. He was also very respectful. It was a long drive but it went by so fast because he made it really lively and fun. After the YS Falls trip, he also took us shopping. We would definitely ride with him again.

Wow what an amazing day! The day was full of good vibes, fun and knowledge. Me and my family really enjoyed each trip, the YS falls were beautiful, the Black River and Appleton Estate was fun, lots of interesting facts and breathtaking experience. Petal was friendly and great at her job. She made each trip fun and Dave the driver keep the music going and got us to each distance safety. They both made the whole experience such a magical day to remember. Thank you.
