      wonderful people,...

      wonderful people, beautiful views! convenient service in terms of pick up and drop off. our raft tour guide was great. I will say, the raft tour wasn't super long, but well worth the money. FYI the beach they end at is more of a pebble beach, not sand, and there are a lot of vendors in case that's something you're not comfortable with. great for souvenirs though. they also only just massage your feet, not your whole leg. but 10/10 for me and my parents.

      The most memorable part of the rafting was the Driver, and captain and staff were so friendly, polite. They escorted me like great gentleman. The food was delicious.

      Great time

      Nothing short of amazing. Devon exceeded our expectations. I booked this excursion to celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday and they made it very special. The raft experience was amazing shoutout to Flowers. The food stop was amazing as well. We truly enjoyed it all. Wlso Thank you so much Devon! We will see you again when we come back.

      Awesome excursion with great tour guide

      Devon from Island Drive Tours was amazing. He took care of my family as we were his own. He set us up with a great bamboo boat driver, Flowers. Limestone massage was amazing. After the bamboo boat ride, he took us to a fruit stand to experience the amazing local fruits from the island. This is a must do in Jamaica with a great tour guide.

      Great excursion, rude coworkers.

      We had the youngest guide Craig. He did a great job despite the constant picking from his co-workers. I felt he was being picked on because he had the older white lady pushed off on him. We were told to go with one guide, but that guide pushed us off on Craig. All the other guides had black, younger women in bathing suits and he was stuck with me. There is a foot massage and an optional leg rub down that all the others did the FULL leg. I didn’t embarrass Craig to massage my full legs. The excursion was lovely, and Craig was super nice, and my husband and I really enjoyed ourselves, but the constant teasing of our guide made me feel very uncomfortable and like they were laughing about me. A little reverse discrimination.

      Bamboo Rafting

      Gina_B, Dec 2023
      This was a lovely excursion, I just wish the river rafting itself lasted longer as I thoroughly enjoyed it! Devon was personable and informative, and we had a great time with him as our driver, and the rafting was SO relaxing.
