Our driver was Travis...

Andrea_T, Jun 2025

Our driver was Travis with Trav Sun Tours and he was phenomenal! Called me when he was running late due to an accident on the road. About a 20-minute drive from our resort in Montego Bay. Travis was friendly and talkative along the way. A rum punch was included when we got there, waiting for the sun to set. There were 3 or 4 boats total that took people out in the lagoon and let people in to swim and take pics. It was hard to get phone pics with no flash and the people moving in the water. Video worked pretty well. They had a photographer that would take pics for $30 (plus tip). Travis was our private driver and stopped on the way back to our resort for dinner (we paid for his plus we tipped him). Highly recommend this tour!

Hello Andrea_T thank you for booking this tour with us it was such a pleasure meeting you and talking you around we definitely had an amazing time.

So freaking cool!!

I went into this experience knowing that the amount of bioilluminescence that you see can be effected by the weather (I was a little worried since it had rained in Montego bay that afternoon). That being said, I was surprised to see that the water was BRIGHT with activity. Definitely an amazing, once-in-a-lifetime experience. Lisa was an excellent driver and guide, and was very knowledgeable about everything. I truly recommend her and this excursion. The rum punch was also excellent! Side note: Be mindful of what's around you when you are swimming (as best as you can). Regardless of what the boat crew will tell you, there are jellyfish in the water. Even though they will deny it, know that they are fully equipped with numbing cream and alcohol and won't hesitate to help out! Besides that little part (really very minor), it was perfect!

Hello Sara_S thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and tips with this community we really appreciate your feedback regarding our service and looking forward to hosting you and whenever you visit Jamaica again. Thanks for making it Trav sun tours. One love

Nothing like picture shows.

This was by far the worst Excursion I have ever been on! First of all, they went out in the rain more importantly we went to the spot to see the illuminated water and it was not illuminated at all. We would have enjoyed it better if they had blue flashlights under the water. When we asked about the lack of excitement compared to the picture we were told it was because of the rain. If that had been the case they should have canceled it or at least given us the chance to reschedule it. Extremely disappointed!!!

Hello Marisa, Firstly, thank you for making our island your destination of choice and for booking with us. We appreciate the time you’ve taken to share it with us. We are saddened and disappointed to read that your experience was not what you expected. Sometimes when we have a full moon it can affect the overall experience because this experience is better when it’s completely dark also it rained the day before and sometimes this also affects the visibility but not always. Please note that the concerns mentioned are certainly not indicative of the norm and we will not make excuses but the weather conditions can affect the tour sometimes. Once again we thank you for visiting and sharing your feedback with us. We hope that you will give us another opportunity to make assure you that this is worth doing.
