This was an amazing boat ride. Despite it being a bit rainy on our day, the crew was so friendly and fun. We had an amazing time and there was never a dull moment. The cruise was beautiful, and Rick’s Cafe was amazing vibes. Definitely recommend booking this experience, it was 10/10!

The actual cruise was wonderful & staff was pleasant, energetic & entertaining however the transportation/logistics aspect is completely overshadowed the experience. If you’re staying in Montego Bay or above/north I would not recommend this excursion. It was never communicated that if you are picked up from the Montego Bay Area it will take 2-3 hours to get to the starting point of cruise. We spent more time on the bus than the actual cruise there wasn’t enough time to eat, relax & enjoy the stops at Margaritaville & Rick’s Cafe. Had the company disclosed the estimated travel time from pickup to starting point, I would have never booked this for my family, total day was this excursion 10am - 10pm! No customer is willingly going to sign up for a 6 hour bus round trip to only on be a boat for 2-2.5hours & 30mins-1hour at each stop. DO NOT BOOK IF YOU’RE STAYING IN MONTEGO BAY AREA!! Distances in Jamaica don't translate the same way they do in the U.S.—25 to 30 miles can easily take 2–3 hours depending on the route and number of pickups. Oh by the way you have to get on the boat via walking through the water (above waste high) so FYI

We had a great time! We traveled with 2 kids ages 3 and 10 and they had a blast! The drinks were good, snorkeling was fun, and there was endless music to dance to. The crew was great at keeping the party going! The only thing I wish was that we had more time to spend at Rick’s because it felt very rushed with the crowds there. Definitely would recommend though!!

Great, fun experience! We couldn’t go to Rick’s Café by boat because the waves were too strong, but the crew put our safety first and arranged for us to get there by bus instead. We really appreciated that they prioritized everyone’s safety. Overall, it was an amazing experience, and I would definitely recommend it!

Awful customer service. Paid for the trip in advanced. Was contacted 7:30p the evening before the excursion telling me that I had to pay an ADDITIONAL $60 via Zelle bank payment. I was contacted via text message and advised that If I did not pay the tour would be cancelled and as it’s was beyond the 24 hour cancellation window I would not be reimbursed. I felt pressured to pay and very uncomfortable being contacted via a text message to pay with an electronic payment. It was giving a scam vibe. A reputable company would give me the option to cancel without penalty. They should have known when I booked the excursion weeks prior was the correct price would be. Very disappointing and would not recommend. They try to get more money after payment via Viator. Beware.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
DONT BE DISHONEST, CHANTEL CAMERON we have your messages agreeing it was
Your mistake, you were more than aware
Viator also can see the messages.
We list everything so you can book your hotels correctly, it’s all very clear online, You booked under a different area of pick up, your reservation said Negril and you wasn’t staying in Negril, you knew it was incorrect and asked us to pick you up from your hotel for free, that’s unfortunately not how transfers work, they have to be paid for, we contacted you through the VIATOR PORTAL, we do not need to scam anyone for $30, that was the taxi fare roundtrip from your hotel, you haggled over having to pay the transfer fee for a whole evening, you said then you would pay it as it WAS your mistake and you didn’t instead you message back after an hour asking for free ..!! We do store the messages for situations like this where untruths are told
Our customer service is the best in the business, we take care of our guest from they cruise until many actually leave the island

The transportation and itinerary ran very smoothly. This excursion was the highlight of our vacation.
Omorinsola_S, Jun 2026
Good experience! Bar was nice just it was a lot of older people on the boat(which is fine) but this probably won’t be everyone’s experience when they book. Rick’s cafe was too crowded but I do think they give you enough time to order some food and come back to the boat. There’s also snorkeling which looked fun I didn’t read the description that this had snorkeling people had a good time
Sara_L, May 2026
From arrival to departure the party never stopped. Our crew was incredible. Customer service and accommodations was top tier. I would book this again and again!!!!
Laura_P, May 2026
This is a good activity if you are looking for a big group with fellow tourists. It wan't exactly our vibe but our hype guy tried really hard to get everyone on the boat dancing and singing. The DJ was great . Wish the drinks offered were a little more than rum and beer but, again, this is good for a typical tourist experience.
Kristin_B, Apr 2026
The catamaran was everything, the music , the vibes and the staff were very chill with how they provided drinks.

I booked this activity last minute, but it turned into such a core memory—I had the best time ever! The people on the boat were so much fun, the snorkeling was one of the best I’ve ever done, and we danced all day. I’d highly recommend this to anyone passing through Jamaica!

Everything was great the director CT keep the party going. Good energy, good fun, great atmosphere and beautiful water. We enjoyed this and would do it again.
Melinda_v, Aug 2025
Bring food because the wait times at margaritaville and ricks cafe are long, and you won’t have time to enjoy the places waiting on the food you order..
Response from Host, Aug 2025
Hi you left our cruise a 1 star because you had to wait to be served food at a restaurant that we don’t control?? That’s not our fault in any way
Rayvon_S, Aug 2025

Nobody notified us that it was nomination day and that the streets were packed with both political parties. It was supposed to be an hour and a half ride which was over 3 hrs. Nothing shouldve been booked on this day and my family shouldn't have been put in this situation.
There was also nothing to see on the snorkel part.
Response from Host, Aug 2025
We are not responsible for traffic.. businesses do not close for nominations..
Cara_M, Aug 2025
Great time! Even though it started to rain really hard we all still had a lot of fun. Snorkeling was nice too.

The host for the cruise was good, really entertained us as much as he could. But the sound kept cutting out on the boat which was killing the little vibe we had. I went with 5 of my mates, the party vibes that we saw online weren’t the same when we done the cruise, maybe that was due to there being not a lot of people. The rum punch was nice. The snacks were rubbish. Vibe was okay. Good boat but too many technical issues on this cruise. As long as they fix it then you should be good. We went on Jamaica Independence Day so we thought it would be busy and have a lot of people but that weren’t the case at all so be mindful when picking your days.
I’d just say overall, it was a nice ride, the snorkelling was alright. Probably better if you could breathe in the goggles. Ritz cafe was cool and margarita ville was nice.
Just sound issues which interrupted the party vibes massively.
But go at your own wish.
Stephanie_D, Jul 2025
The music, MC, DJ were all very entertaining and kept the party going. The drinks are ok. However, a 4-5 hour catamaran cruise with like 10 bags of chips is not light snacks. They must do better with snacks offering more and better. They ran out of chips within 5 minutes of the trip starting.

Glad you enjoyed your cruise

This was fun and a big party. Chocolate thunder (the MC) was awesome. Music was on point along with the drinks. Rick’s cafe was good and the jerk chicken sandwich was amazing.

Didn’t get to go to Ricks and jump - generic kind of party cat with what seemed like apt of locals and Bartender seemed very disgruntled.
Response from Host, Jun 2025
We do offer a bus if the ocean is too rough to dock at ricks cafe , ricks cafe is always weather permitting. If the ocean is rough RICKS WILL NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO CLIFF JUMP EITHER FOR SAFETY REASONS ..
Denise_C, Jun 2025
There's not enough amazing things to say about this crew and the trip itself! We left from Margaritaville and from there it was non-stop music, shenanigan's and booze! I would call this the rated R version of the Booze Cruise Negril! Lol. So many enjoyed the snorkeling (I'm not a strong swimmer, so I didn't go), but the summary on the boat and at Rick's was amazing! We even got our picture taken ❤️

Dress to get wet as you are expected to walk in waste deep water to the catamaran. The tour guide was full of energy, the DJ was on fire and the Rim Punch was nice and strong.

That during inclement weather it should be canceled. It rained pretty hard and the boat was extremely packed leaving almost nowhere to sit.
