The 50 best experiences in Jamaica

This was a great tour! So much history. The tour took an hour. The history and information was great, but there was very little time to enjoy and take in the artifacts. It would have been nice to have some time in the rooms to really look at everything. Although I wouldn't want the tour to be any longer. 1 hour was plenty, but a little time set a side to really take in the art would have been better.

The tour was amazing, Ricky our tour guide was an awesome and very knowledgeable commentator. Well worth the price for a tour to learn the history, and to see the many historical artifacts of the Legendary Bob Marley. My family and I enjoyed the experience.

Visiting the Bob Marley Museum was an incredible experience! Our guide, Irie Sue (Susan), was amazing her energy, humor, and deep knowledge carried us back in time to relive the life and legacy of Bob Marley. She made the tour unforgettable, sharing stories that brought his music and message of love and unity to life. The museum itself is full of history Bob’s home, studio, awards, and personal items are all preserved, giving a real sense of who he was beyond the music. You can feel his spirit in every room. If you’re in Kingston, this is a must-visit. And if you can, ask for Irie Sue as your guide—you won’t regret it!

I learnt so much history on the Greatest of all time. Photography is not allowed inside and I can't blame them, this is something you have to experience in person. Wonderful tour of the premises. Don't worry if you are a smoker there is a little treat at the end of the tour waiting.

Nice place to visit when in Jamaica. Tour guide has amazing energy. It's a tour around the house, not much furniture left though. There's parking spot on premise. The turn into the house is pretty small so don't miss it.

Very good tour and very informative. The only thing was there were too many tour guides there at one time, so it felt a bit rushed. The tour is about an hour . It would have been better if the tour was a bit longer. Jevy was our tour guide who made the tour worthwhile.

Very lovely experience. You will learn a lot. You can take photos and videos in certain places that they allow you to. There is a hidden weed shop and place you can smoke as well. Wasn’t expecting that. Also make sure you check out. Tuff Gong

The Falls are absolutely beautiful. My wife and I found it magical! The only reason I gave it 4 stars and not 5 stars was that on the way out, you are forced to walk through a maze of souvenir shops all trying to sell you, and being a bit pushy about it. I wouldn't have minded going through the shops if I didn't feel like everyone was trying to push their trinkets at me. But again, the falls were absolutely amazing!

Breathtaking view! Simply LOVED IT! I would summarize this place as below: Great place for: 1. Picnic ✅ 2. Morning/evening walks ✅ 3. Weekend getaway ✅ 4. Hangout ✅ 5. Dates ✅ 6. Dog walk ✅ (Only in Park) 7. Biking ✅ (Only in Park) 8. Spending time with your loved ones ✅ Vibe 💯 Atmosphere 💯 Complimentary WiFi ✅ Cleanliness ✅ View ✅ Worth your time 💯 Worth your $$$ ✅ Convenient location 💯 Exceptional customer service ✅ Cleaner washrooms ✅ Recommend this place? ✅ Price: Expensive It’s a one time watch, If I’m back in Ocho Rios with someone who has never been then I would accompany them for sure! Rock climbing was fun and adventurous, thoroughly enjoyed it. A few rocks were slippery but the guards were always present and at our disposal for assistance. Thank you for all the care and love! Highly recommended this place 👌🏻

This was an absolutely amazing experience! The walk to get up to the falls was though but we made it! We took the catamaran to the falls with the package we got! The views was just incredible. The tour guide was great, so nice, helpful and funny. It was a great experience. Few spots to get souvenirs which was great (beginning and after the falls). It is about an hour to get up there just with everyone who is doing it, so be prepared. Don’t take your purse and make sure to have a waterproof case for your phone because you’re gonna want to take your phone.

By far, the best Sandals I have ever been to. The staff were fantastic and the food and drinks were amazing. We did scuba diving and snorkeling. Enjoyed the fine restaurants and all the entertainment in the evenings. Security was amazing because we never got hassled on the beach. My only complaint was not with Sandals but American Air Lines. We had mechanical issues going and coming home. We lost a day of our vacation because of the airline. Thank goodness we had insurance for the trip. I will never fly American again.

This is a must do excursion!! Such a natural beauty. Make sure you wear water shoes that have great grip. The photographer does a great job in videoing and snapping pictures in the moment. Totally worth buying.

Beautiful waterfall, definitely a must see/do when in Jamaica. You can hike up the fall and enjoy the water. If you’re fit and comfortable going against raging water, you don’t really need a guide. We rented a car and did the hike ourselves without a guide and enjoyed it since we didn’t feel rushed to get anywhere. Go all the way down to the beach and work your way up. We got there when it opened so we were able to enjoy the park to ourselves for a while. When we were leaving, we started to see bigger groups come in. It’s a little commercialized, but still an amazing site to see!

What a beautiful experience! I spent the day at the beach and climbed the waterfall. I went on a weekday, so it wasn’t overcrowded. The water was a bit chilly, but my body quickly adapted. The park was beautifully maintained, and the restrooms were clean as well.

Overall, visiting Rose Hall was a great experience. It was wonderful to learn about the local culture and hear interesting historical facts. The tour provided a lot of valuable information, though at times it felt a bit rushed. We would have appreciated more time in individual rooms and opportunities for questions and discussion. Despite that, it was an enjoyable and worthwhile visit, offering plenty of insight into the history and culture of the area.

Definitely worth the visit. My friend and I did this tour and our tour guide was a lovely. Interesting stories. P.S. Try the witch’s brew from the pub there.

Really interesting place to learn about the legend of the white witch. They offer both day and evening tours and both are quite informative and very helpful to understand what took place back in the day. We certainly recommend if you are interested in spooky, local history and also antique items.

Ohhhhhh my gosh, if you are in Jamaica GOOOOO!!! It’s well worth it. We all had such a wonderful time. STUNNING place and it’s an excellent way to learn history. If you’re a Johnny Cash or Ghost Adventures fan this is a MUST. Staff was absolutely amazing, knowledgeable and welcoming. Such beautiful people, I could listen and learn for hours.

Fantastic experience! Our guide was wonderful! My mom and driver who are natives always was too nervous to come here but we convinced them and they had a wonderful time Learned so much!

The night tour was perfect, I've done a lot of historic mansion tours in different cities and this was by far the most fun. The house is amazing, the tour was "interactive", and it was really interactive. :) Everyone one was engaged, on edge and scared through the whole tour. Our guide Ricky was great! Very entertaining.

Highly recommend! A fascinating and scary tour of the Rose Hall Great House. Learning the Jamaican history of the Wicked White Witch at the Rose Hall Great House left us with chills and goosebumps on our goosebumps. We will be back!

We absolutely loved this beach! Starbucks right there, as well as Pier 1 restaurant!

Beautiful, clean beach. Highly recommend for a day at the beach. Be aware that on Wednesdays, the cruise ships dock and so will be very busy. Getting there around 2pm on a Wednesday is good.

Beautiful tranquil area! Extremely clean area and beach, but to access this beach and area a small fee needed. Don't worry it's very low and very worth it. Great to chill out, relax, have a walk. And a light bit of snorkeling. Lots to see and nice food around. We spent the day and it was a good day out overall

Such a nicely maintained beach, you pay a fee to enter and can rent umbrellas and chairs. Food was good and reasonable, drinks were pretty good. Beautiful water also just relaxing watching planes landing every now and then.

This is a great beach… very beautiful. They have a lifeguard on the beach and security. They also have a great bar that is nearby with great drinks. The bar is able to accept American and Jamaican dollars very good vibes. The people were very friendly. I even got a celebratory birthday drink from a local. I’m here to tell the story lol. The people are extremely beautiful and you don’t have a lot of people heckling you. You do have to pay for chairs. I think we paid seven bucks. The beat is full of tourists and local so it’s a good mix and you’re likely to feel very comfortable there. Get there early if you want to avoid having to get an umbrella and use a tree for the ultimate shade they also serve food. We had beef and chicken patties. They were steaming hot and delicious. The bathrooms were clean. all in all very good beach.

Nice beach. Great view. Got shaded places under tree if you are worried to get burnt, plus the rental umbrella, you should be fine. Got all facilities you need and are pretty clean. It would be 5 stars if the stuffs can be nicer. We asked a lady who works there for helping us take a photo for all, however, she just turned around and ignored.

Doctors Cave Beach is located off the famous Hip Strip of Montego Bay. Access is via the Hip Strip, it’s a fee paying beach, the beach is impeccably clean with clear waters so you can see the sea life, if you venture out a little you can snorkel and see amazing sea life. There is bar serving drinks , cocktails and bar snacks , there is a Starbucks overlooking the beach so coffee and everything Starbucks is available. There is a bouncy thing you swim up to and bounce on or just chill and lie on, the beach can get busy from time to time, but that’s because it’s the place to hang out. The white sand, the clear sea, the warm sea and the impressive sealife makes this beach popular with tourists and locals alike

This was my favorite excursion in Jamaica! Our tour guide LaShawn was a 14 year old who was super personable and professional. He helped us through the raging water and even encouraged me to jump! This is definitely a MUST DO when you’re here. We rented a car and got tickets online, so we drove there ourselves and didn’t have to worry about a big tour group. Highly recommend!

We had a great experience! The tour guides were very patient, friendly, and helpful. Mickey was our primary guide and Jay was the secondary, and both went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and safe. Mickey even went diving to recover my brother’s sunglasses after they were lost during the fall—such a thoughtful gesture! A tip for future visitors: be sure to wear water shoes, as they make the walk up the falls much easier. Our pictures turned out amazing—the photographer did an excellent job capturing the moment, and the fee for all the photos was very reasonable. Overall, it was a wonderful experience that I would highly recommend!

My wife and I visited the Dunn's River Falls, and the Blue Hole on the same day. I have to say, the Blue Hole was the better visit of the two!! It was a wonderful experience! From our guide, to the leap into the water, it was just amazing!

this tourist attraction is very nice and worth the detour! it is not too crowed and the tour only last about 1hr total. you get to jump in the water many times, hike through the waterfalls and enjoy the quite unusual secret jungle hideout feel. the best advice i can give you is when you get out of the tour bus, make sure you leave all your clothes and belongings there and only wear your water shoes. you may bring a cellphone in waterproof case but nothing else.

Would I return? Yes. Will I return? Yes. However, I won't book a tour, just drive up and pay for entrance and life jacket. This agency is amazing, our bus driver was amazing and informative. We did the blue hole and bamboo Rafting and had a great time. I HIGHLY recommend this agency If this is your first time booking or are not familiar with the culture of Jamaica. My only complaint is the constant begging for funds from side vendors playing on your emotions to buy something or the tour guide asking for tips. While going up the blue hole mountain we saw far to make vendors looking to sell something which ruins the scenery and fun of the hike. Even the photo guy, who came out of nowhere, asked for $120 for the photos And then asked for a tip. When I asked if the $120 isn't for him, he said no that's for his boss tip is different. The bamboo Rafting isn't long but it's relaxing. I fell asleep part way which is what I wanted as I was tired and needed to chill. Halfway, we stopped on an island where you can get a massage of some sort but then the side vendors popped up AGAIN asking for purchase. I am sorry to say this but the owner of these areas need to limit or straight up remove some of them. You can only buy so many gifts before you eventually stop caring. With the constant asking for tip you realize you can't plan accordingly, at least financially, properly for these excursion because you never know who's going to ask for a handout.

This place is breathtaking and beautiful. It is such a beautiful and scenic place to enjoy a day our in nature. The water is extremely cold. My family enjoyed jumping into the blue hole and swimming around. The place is located far up in the hills of St. ANNs. The guides at the location are very kind and helpful. I definitely recommend this place for a day of fun and excitement.

Such an amazing and thrilling experience to explore this surreal place. Had loads of fun and adventures while diving zip lining and swimming through these holes. 🥰

Mixed review. Loved the place, loved the activities. Did not like the sense of urgency. Based on my experience, do not book back to back excursions if going here. Meaning, if you wanted to go to Mystic Mountain and then want to go to another place, you may be at risk. The staff is not on your time!! Based on my experience, I recommend a full day at Mystic Mountain. There is a lot to do there. Pool, rope climb, rock wall, bob sled and zip line. The time given doesn't make sense. We had an 11Am ticket time. We got to the park before 11 am. After the ride up to the mountain, we found out the next available time for the zip line was 1:30 PM. We didn't get on the Zipline until 2:15 PM as the staff was waiting on the gear to get back to the starting point. Totally unorganized. Once on the Zipline however, things were smooth and it was a great time. There are multiple ziplines to take you back down the mountain. If you plan on leaving, the staff will send your bags ahead of you. Once done with the zip line, you can simply leave. I thought that was a cool service. The rope course and bobsled were also great

This place was lovely. The zip line instructors were so funny and supportive. Had a great time, the view is beautiful, but pizza not good. The bobsled was great, I love that you can control the speed.

We had a phenominal time and can't recommend the park highly enough. From booking stage to transfers there and back to our hotel, the whole process was very smooth. Staff were very friendly and safety was definitely a priority. We visited early in the morning, which was great as it was quiet and not too hot. It's on my to-do-list as soon as I can get back to Jamaica. Well done to all, my husband and I had a wonderful time.

Mystic Mountain Guest Experience Review ​The overall visit to Mystic Mountain yielded a mixed experience. We would like to commend the operational staff assigned to the rides for their outstanding friendliness and accommodation; their professionalism significantly elevated the quality of our time on those attractions. ​However, the standards of service were inconsistent across the park, particularly within the food court where a lack of attentiveness was observed. Furthermore, the inability of the food and beverage service to manage inventory, resulting in items being completely unavailable during a high-volume holiday weekend, represents a critical logistical oversight that negatively impacted the guest experience. ​The most pressing issue is a need for greater transparency in operational status. Guests must be notified of significant closures, such as non-operational rides, weather-related shutdowns, and critically, the closure of the Sky Explorer (tram). Since the tram is a primary draw for many visitors, its non-operational status must be communicated clearly prior to ticket purchase, not discovered upon arrival. Given the loss of a major facility and the operational issues encountered, we believe a form of compensation or credit is warranted. ​In summary, Mystic Mountain possesses considerable potential as a destination when all facilities are functional and weather permits. Addressing the systemic issues related to logistics and customer information transparency is essential to ensure guest expectations are consistently met.

Mystic Mountain was nothing short of Adventure. Two friends and I went on a Tuesday and were able to zip line, go on the raggamuffin, have lunch, and bobsled twice! The gondola up and down truly transports you into a haven of pure FUN! 10/10 day for the girls!

There's places to choose to dine and eat here if you would like, Infinity pool and plenty of activities to do once you get to the top of Mystic...the longest wait is i believe the bobsled ride, arrive early if you would like to enjoy all activities and go more than one round

We had fun here. Really enjoyed the meal and the bobsleigh. The entry fee was far to expensive for what you get. 70 US dollars basic entry fee which includes 4 activities. You don't get to choose the 4 so we only did 2 outa 4 and then paid an extra 20 US dollars for the bobsleigh.

Absolutely amazing experience, we got there first thing in the morning and there was nobody else there so we were the only people on the River, it was so peaceful, our guide was brilliant pointing things out to us he even managed to spot the odd chameleon on trees, highly recommend this experience

Took my mom and kids, and this was a tremendous experience. The experience was quiet and peaceful. Mr. Gentile, our rafter, gave us the history of the river. The tour was quite long, 1 hour-ish, worth every penny. If you're looking for a peaceful, relaxing experience, you'll find it at Martha Brae.

Great time out here. Very relaxing and enjoyable ride. Much thanks to Captain Gayle who taught me a lot along the way. Water is crystal clear.

Cruising the river on bamboo rafts was very relaxing. Their is a cool breeze along the waters. There is punch available, for purchase, to bring along. The colors incredibly vibrant. Be prepared to take photos.

This is a wonderful experience. Our guide was Jay and he shared a lot of interesting information about Jamaica. I accidentally caused my husband to take a dive and he cut his finger on the wire. Jay poured rum on it and rubbed limestone and it stopped bleeding immediately. During the tour, they give you a limestone foot and leg massage. It was incredible....my feet are so smooth. The tour cost $35 per person and we bought a bottle of rum punch for $30 (we actually didn't know we were buying it but oh well!)

Prior to landing in Jamaica I was told that rafting on the Martha Brae river is an experience I should have. I must say that I was not too enthusiastic about going. Quite frankly it sounded boring to me. But along with other family I went with the flow. Well...hmm. it was a wonderful experience. After joining the raft which is made of bamboo we floated along the river with Ronald as our guide. He told us twice versions of the story of the Martha Brae river. Firstly, that Martha Brae was a witch who was tortured by the Spaniards so that she can tell where gold was located. That she lured then into a cave changed the course of the river and flooded out the cave causing them to drowned and the river began to flow in that new course from then until now. Second story is that the name Martha Brae is the english translation of the spanish name for the River Mateberion (not sure if the spelling of the name). We saw the river vendors plying their trade and children swimming in the river. We also saw fruit trees along the way. The most interesting part for us was to watch the guides manoeuvre the rafts when we arrived at our destination. There were so many rafts at the end that for us to get off the raft the guides had to use their oars to push the rafts out of the way so that we can inch forward slowly until we were able to step on to land. After that, while waiting be taken back to our vehicles we saw cranes loading the rafts...4 at a time on to the back of truck and we are told that the rafts are then taken to the beginning of the river and put back into the river so that other guests can join the raft and experience rafting on the Martha Brae River.

One of my favourite highlight of Jamaica was visiting the Martha Brae River. The river is nicely shaded from the hot sun. One raft cost 77USD for 2 people. Our guide was Leroy (Sugar), he was incredibly friendly and helped us take a lot of pictures! He was fun to chat with about Jamaica life and even about our life. Be sure to buy their craft, great souvenir to take back home. There are also vendors along the banks that sell fresh coconuts and souvenirs.

It has many many restores along the mile which has beach access. We just went on a drive for Margaritaville which had beach access. It was beautiful. The whole place is amazing with its tropical weather yo the variety of fruits and food options. People are kind and friendly. The beaches are clean and pristine in almost all the places we went. Some of the tourists still left their half filled plastic bottles and cups of drinks on the beaches. Which the guards mostly cleanup after hours( which they shouldn’t have to if one is responsible enough) Some beach access you will have to pay in Montego Bay. But still it’s always worth it. The warm sun and sunsets are almost magical. These countries are blessed with good soil and a lot of abundance of healthy foods.

Perfect beach in Jamaica & Caribbean. Warm waters, casual & relaxed atmosphere, no stop lights, very controlled with really amazing policing with many police patrol on the negril seven mile beach to ensure everyone feels safe at all times. Also controlled by plane clothing policing/undercover who would remove persons from the beach if caught patronizing tourist for food, drinks , goods & other unwelcome services. Negril beach is so beautiful and rocks cafe is a highlight. So many places to have dinner and reggae horseback riding is the best option for ocean swim, shaded trail ride and the only one mile of private white sand to enjoy a romantic and family ride with love ones. Reggae horseback offers free unlimited photos & videos for every person with a phone/camera. Negril also has Reggae Horseback & Golf Packages. Many attractions to visit & play golf too. Negril seven mile beach is the most beautiful beach. Marijuana tours, ostrich tour at reggae horseback, and visit other rustic & natural unspoiled beaches🐎🐎🐎🇯🇲

Beautiful water, I have nothing bad to say about this beach. We went in the middle of July, 2025, the water was clear and calm. I did spot a sting ray, star fish and various fishes near the shallow area. People do offer to sell you things on the beach but it's not overwhelming. Various excursions are available near this location

Even if you don't participate in the Reggae Marathon, the Negril Seven Mile Beach is a beautiful beach to visit. I absolutely loved my time here. There's seven miles of beach, so there's more than enough room to grab some sand and chill. The water is calming and clear, but there are areas where it's "busy". Every beach has its spots and this beach is no exception.

One of the most beautiful beaches in Jamaica, Seven miles beach is a treat with white sands and warm waters. Overall chill vibes with great food and drink options. Also a great place to rent a catamaran and go for a sunset sailing! Beautiful sunset!!

Visited end of October 2023. Beach is nice but waves shifting sands towards afternoon so I went in the morning and the water was crystal clear see through. Love the vibes very chill and ‘seven mile’ gives enough space for everyone. Must watch sunset !

Probably one of the most beautiful beaches I've ever visited. Chill vibes and warm water coupled with fresh juice and patty vendors, what more could you want. Check out Best in the West chicken nearby or just get delicious chicken from the many barrel vendors. Spent New year's eve swimming under the fireworks and paper lanterns. It was magical.

The Green Grotto caves tour is a lovely adventure through several small cave systems. The main feature is the grotto itself, which is illuminated and beautiful in the deepest parts of the tour. The guide is always great. I’ve been twice and would go again. I walk with a cane and was able to do this tour reasonably well. There are stairs and uneven terrain throughout, but it’s manageable if you watch your step.

Green Grotto Caves was a really cool experience and a great break from the usual beach day. The caves themselves are beautiful and full of history, from the early Tainos to pirates and even rum runners. The underground lake was especially cool to see. What really made the tour stand out was our guide. He was knowledgeable, funny, and made the whole experience feel relaxed and fun. You could tell he genuinely enjoyed what he was doing, and it made a big difference. The tour isn’t too long and the walk is pretty easy, but there are a few stairs and uneven spots, nothing crazy, just something to keep in mind. It's a bit humid down there, but the cool air actually feels good after being in the sun. Only giving it 4 stars because the entry fee felt a little steep for the length of the tour, but it’s still a unique and memorable stop if you're in the area. Definitely recommend!

Wooow did I have a great time!! Who knew the caves would be fun and educational at the same time. Big shout out to Nevada our tour guide. You were well spoken and informative! Would recommend!

One of the best tours in imo on Jamaican history, a people without there history are a lost people! Chadd was an excellent tour guide! He knows his history! Ase’

This was an excursion for us from an MSC Cruise. Amazing guide. Fun and knowledgeable. Beautiful site!

The Green Grotto Caves in Jamaica are a captivating natural wonder located along the island’s stunning north coast, nestled between the vibrant resort towns of Ocho Rios and Montego Bay in Discovery Bay, St. Ann. Their historical tapestry is equally compelling, having served as a shelter for the indigenous Taino Indians, a hideout for Spanish settlers during the 17th-century British invasion, a haven for runaway slaves, and even a storage site for rum barrels during World War II. One standout guide who elevates the Green Grotto Caves experience is Sarnya, whose passion and expertise make every tour unforgettable. Sarnya’s engaging storytelling brings the caves’ history to life, weaving tales of Taino artifacts, pirate hideouts, and wartime secrets with infectious enthusiasm.

Really good. Very informative. Tour guide Navardo was excellent and knowledgeable and made the trip enjoyable.

Was told it was an island… it’s not a real island. More like a pile of sticks - man made. Not really worth it. Have to take a motorized speed boat ride. Bargained it down 35/ person from 50/ person. Takes about 30-35 min to get from the mainland of Jamaica to the place. Disappointing. Snorkeled a little as it was listed as a great snorkeling spot. Not really. it’s of grass/ trash in the water surrounding…. No fish in the grassy areas. No coral reef. There was about 10 different types of tropical fish behind the structure though- in the sandy/ not grassy area. Would not recommend this place as a great snorkeling spot. More of a tourist trap. Not interesting.

It was definitely an experience! The food was awesome, the atmosphere was great even though they were very few people there during the weekday we went, and the service from the staff was excellent. They made sure to get ice to make the daiquiri I ordered and made sure the credit card machine came so I could pay with my credit card. There was also a guy there that takes pictures that you could purchase which I did they turned out awesome and he was very very informative and nice!

This fantastic piece of Jamaica is a must see. The food they bring out of that tiny kitchen is unreal, and the people are friendly as can be. You can get your smoke there as well. Swimming is in shallow water despite the bar being a kilometre out into the water, and the ride out by boat is a great experience. You can hire a fisherman to taxi out from black river. The boat was $20usd each to get there and the food is understandably pricey given where it’s being made. Everything has fantastic here. Do yourself a favour and check it out!

Words can’t express how blessed I was able to visit here!!!! Floyd and his staff/friends were so welcoming and made me feel like family! Amazing place to visit! Thank you Floyd!! I will miss you and until we meet again, blessings and love my friend!!

So this place is really cool, you catch a boat to go there and then they cook your food in an old rim and who knows what else but the food was excellent and plated like a 5 star restaurant (don't ask me how they don't put there) anyhow your gonna need at least an hour and a half here or longer because the food took an hour but we just laid out back and napped. Prices are reasonable for what you get since the experience is worth a bunch on its own.

Great experience overall. Definitely worth it. A sandbar in Jamaica 🇯🇲, can never go wrong. I didn’t eat the food but they have food and a bar, so no need to bring anything other than a good time. Make sure you look for Sheldon, he runs a boat service as well so look for his shop.

I loved & enjoyed the experience. Big up Jason who brought me to & from. I even swam in the sea. Each plate in the pic cost $3,500. You can pay in USD or JMD.

It’s a gorgeous National Park. Jamaica is so rich in nature, beautiful and green 🙂the Bkue National park is breathtaking. However it takes a long time to go through as the roads are narrow and very often in bad state so you have to slow down and the locals are so used to the roads that they don’t slow down, it’s a very challenging drive! We were unlucky that we went on a Monday and on an Elections day, so absolutely everything was closed. We tried to find a trail, but it’s absolutely impossible to do it unless you find one of the places which give you an access. So we just drove through the national park.

It's so beautiful all around. You're surrounded by nothing but lush green trees decorated with a variety of beautiful flowers. The sounds of the birds chirping, the trees swaying in the wind and music of the bamboo all makes it so peaceful and relaxing. To top it off, the air is clean and fresh. Mix this with the jaw dropping views and you get paradise!

We spent a nice night and day at Holywell in one of the cabins and it was sweet. We had a fire in the fireplace and coffee in the morning. The roads are a bit rough there, but you will be used to rough road by the time you get there. There are lovely views of Kingston and otherwise and the vast variety of the plants is very special. There are a lot of nice things going on up there in regards to environmental awareness. A truly special place! I

If you don't go then you won't know. It is the garden of eden less the forbidden fruit. I had more varieties of fruit in a 24 hour period than I have the last 51 years of my life. All that being said, the experience reset me and also put my body, mind and spirit back in alignment. Thank you to the Scott family for introducing me to a place that needs to be kept special to not only myself but those that reside in paradise. Yes! I shall return ot only for me but to give of myself to the community in any capacity.

Wonderful place!! Rent a tent or one of the 3 comfortable cabins available at Holywell. Each cabin is equipped with hot/cold water, cooking facilities, utensils and refrigerator. There is also a sitting area and fireplace. There are also BBQ pits outside the cabins.

It's safe to say this one of the closest ways you can feel heaven on earth, at least in Jamaica(The views!! ) . There are many trails, untouched and protected natural nature parks, rivers, animals etc. There are also coffee farms nearby. You can rent cabins which have all you need to live comfortably (once you're self sufficient). The staff is super friendly! Also, the air quality is exceptional!! I would highly recommend here for family, friends and people looking for a clean, cool calm adventure!

A good challenging walk, but totally worth it. Very good time away from the city. Cabins and sponges available for sleeping at Portland Gap. The peak is for the view and basking in the achievement of standing at the highest point in Jamaica. Surprisingly there was Data Service at the peak so you can snap and share your photos too.

Amazing experience The scenery was unreal Love the vibes Very busy got lucky with getting our food ordered right away and paid right away so we didnt have to wait. Food was amazing me and the wife got Jerk chicken pasta and the Lobster meal 10/10. Thank you to all the employees at Rick's it was real.

Beautiful atmosphere. Some of the food items we wanted were not available and this was early in the afternoon. However the view and the beautiful green, blue glistening waters created a vibes. I went for the view , experience and the Lobster. They did not disappoint.

Visited Rick's with our catamaran cruise wish we could have stayed longer!! Atmosphere is perfect with high cliffs for jumping & crystal blue water!! We swam from the catamaran to the side of the cliff & used the stairs to get to the bar. Too fun!! ThIs is a must when in Jamaica 🇯🇲 ONE LOVE

Talk about amazing views of the sun setting while enjoying carribean music, food, dancing, drinking, people and cliff diving into the crystal clear water. My family & I stayed in Negril at the Azul resort which is about a 30 min ride away. I look forward to coming back in the near future. I would recommend everyone visit Rick’s Cafe while in Jamaica 🇯🇲

This is a fun and lively place to visit. They have cliff jumping and dance competitions, to name a few, all while you sit and enjoy the beautiful ocean views and watch the sun set. The food was amazing. Jerk chicken and shrimp were a definite have again and spicy as they should be.

Dare I say overpriced and overhyped? 🤔I wasn’t impressed to say the least and the “journey” to get here was turbulent. I’d recommend driving vs. the catamaran but it also depends on the vibe you want. Service here tho was lackluster and slow. The food was not worth the price albeit good. I think if you’re going for the music and party vibes and not so much the food and service, you’d have a great time. I was really looking forward to the food more than anything else so I was incredibly disappointed. It is a cultural asset of sorts so it’s worth a visit just know you may be disappointed. The views however are a different story. Very nicely situated with amazing views of the water.. that I really enjoyed.

Breathtaking Views, Fun Vibes — But a Bit Too Touristy This spot definitely delivers when it comes to scenery and entertainment. The cliff diving was amazing to watch — such a thrill! The pool overlooking the ocean is absolutely stunning and makes for a perfect backdrop to just relax and soak it all in. Live entertainment added great energy and made the whole experience feel lively and fun. The food, however, was just average — nothing memorable, and definitely not the highlight. Overall, it was a good time, but the place did feel overly touristy and a bit commercial, which took away some of the authenticity. Worth checking out for the views and atmosphere, but don’t expect a local hidden gem.

To all my fellow culinary enthusiast and west Indians I'm sorry to disappoint with my review. With that being said I'm happy I went just to say I had the opportunity to visit the world famous Scotchies. The chicken was absolutely bland and the rice and peas as well. Festivals were okay. There were 7 of us and unfortunately we all had the same opinion. Service fast and friendly and they will tell you in the prices in American dollars if you are paying with US dollars. I believe they did that for the Canadian travelling with us as well. Have patience and learn to adapt to island time. Take time to support the Local economy ☺️

We have been here a number of times over the years. It’s is very close to where we stay and it is easy to get to. We normally take a taxi but have driven ourselves here too. The staff are very friendly and the service was quite fast, except the fish that came after we had finished. The level of jerk is accessible for those who are not great with spice, but there are sauces on the table which are explosive! If you want to raise the level. The pork was the best in our opinion and we ordered more. The restaurant is next to the road which is quite loud, it adds to the experience, but it’s not a quiet eating location. Worth visiting to escape a hotel bubble.

Without a doubt, this is the best Scotchies on the island! The flavors of the jerk chicken and pork are absolutely amazing—each bite is packed with a perfect blend of spices and smoky goodness that leaves you craving more. The meat is tender and juicy, truly showcasing the art of authentic Jamaican jerk cooking. Not only is the food top-notch, but the customer service is exceptional as well. The staff is friendly and attentive, making you feel right at home from the moment you arrive. They are more than happy to provide recommendations and ensure that your dining experience is enjoyable. If you're looking for a place to indulge in delicious jerk chicken and pork, this Scotchies is a must-visit. The combination of great food and outstanding service makes it an unforgettable dining experience!

Easy review. This was the best jerk chicken I've ever eaten! Hot, fresh, and delicious! French fries were crispy and cooked to order as well. If they would include cocoa bread on the menu, this place would be perfect! Best jerk chicken in Jamaica hands down!

We were greeated poorly by the customer service representative/ cashier, then after having our meal my wife shirt back got spoiled by rust From one of the chair we ask to speak with a supervisor and all of them response was that they are busy, as if we weren't important, it's the first visit to the restaurant and as a visitor to Jamaica it didn't sit well with us , we end up leaving because we were ignore, after walking through the door we observe one of the cashier lady in red blouse laughing at us , very disrespectful . Our visit was on the 1st of Sept roundabout 6pm so we hope management can review the camera to see the poor behavior of the supervisor and staff. Hope no one else has to experience this behavior, also chairs need to be cleaned or re -paint

Scotchies was not worth all of the hype to me. I'd rather my street jerk chicken that I'm used to with more flavor, char and better service.

I'm so sorry, food loving friends! But I had better jerk chicken, and WAY better rice, at our Hilton Resort. The chicken was good, but didnt have that crispy "char" on the outside. The rice and peas were bland and dry, to the point of the rice being crispy. I wouldn't recommend making the trip unless it's on your way.

I had a wonderful time with family there. It was relaxing and beautiful. I zip lined across the falls and Patrick and Gerard were amazing making it so much fun. A must go

YS Falls is one of the premier falls in Jamaica, and with good reason. It’s one of the most professionally run establishments I’ve been to in the country. Everything is orderly, on time, well maintained and very reasonably priced. The falls is beautiful and has lifeguards at every level. There is a pool at the base of the falls, picking tables about the grass, and even food being sold. There is zip lining and rope swings. In terms of crowds, I recommend going early. By midday there will be hundreds of people milling about. AVOID holidays, as it will be unbelievably busy.

I absolutely loved this place! Our guides were fantastic! It’s amazing to jump off the rope swing. Very freeing. Many locals which made me feel I was having a more authentic cultural experience. There’s two mineral water pools to play or swim in before entering the falls. 15 dollar water shoes, can also rent them for 10! The staff was lovely and helpful. We had family with us from ages 1-84 and everyone had a good time. Highly recommend!

The river was running fast, and was brown due to rain. However, it was still so beautiful!!! When you get to the gate, you pay admission, then ride a bus to the falls. Once there, theres a gift shop with small lockers available for $5. But once you open it, you have to take your items or pay another $5 to keep it. There are also changing rooms, bathrooms, and places to sit. Overall a very nice place, with the most beautiful scenery.

We only got about 1-1.5 hrs here. Would reccomend spending the whole day here. Admission fee of 22.00. Tourist trap but worth it if you plan to spend the whole day there. They have a pool below of natural fresh water from the falls with pool chairs and lifeguard etc. so you can spend time swimming/ relaxing/ playing in the falls. Lots of local plants/ gardens/ animal life like snails. YS falls has about 3 tiers and good supply of gushing water. You can’t get to the top most tier walking. They only let you go up to the 2nd tier. However, on the 2nd tier/ pool, there are two ropes. One that you can swing and jump off of from a platform (they tell you when to jump) and a 2nd one that you can also jump off of into more shallow water or just swing on it. I was told it is less popular so less crowded than Dunns River falls which is nice. The attendants were really helpful in helping us take photos, helping us walk through the falls (had us join hands together for safety). Small gift shop but overpriced items. You can do zip lining or tubing for additional fees. Seemed like ziplining was an additional 60.00. Would definitely go again

The journey to get there is totally worth it! The landscapes, The pool, and services were more than adequate if you don't want to be in the falls. Only wish they stayed open a little longer.

Pure magic. From the scenic drive in to the moment you step onto the property, everything feels like a postcard come to life. The falls are breathtaking and the natural pools are perfect for a refreshing swim. The staff was kind, helpful, and made the experience feel safe and fun. We loved that it wasn’t overly crowded, and the balance of adventure and relaxation was perfect. Everything was clean, organized, and well taken care of. This place captures the heart and beauty of Jamaica—highly recommend making it part of your trip!

It is a beautiful waterfall. Our guide was wonderful. The grounds ambiance is very welcoming. The only downside to the trip experience is getting there. The road conditions could be better than what they are right now.

Bring water shoes!!! Our only annoyance was having to pay $7 each to rent icky torn up water shoes on top of the $25 entry fee. You can’t do the excursion without and wish we read about this in advance. The experience itself was great. Our guide Dave was friendly and welcoming and took nice photos of us during the hike. Request him. The waters were cool and refreshing and it was a nice day away from the bustling beach. We didn’t run into anyone else at all during our hike so it felt very special. Our legs were quite sore the next day so we definitely needed this little workout!

When I say Dave was such a phenomenal guide, that is understatement. From making sure we had anything we requested from fresh pineapple and coconut water, it was prepared. Us having fun and our safety was is top priority. Last he knew how to capture all our meaningful moments while doing excursion. I would highly recommend this activity and Dave.

We had a fantastic time hiking the waterfall. Our guide was super attentive and friendly! We did have a slight problem with mosquitoes, just something to be aware of. Our guide took wonderful pictures for us as well!

Magical, Unique, and Forever in My Heart I’ve been coming to Jamaica since I was a kid, and now at 40, I can confidently say that Mayfield Falls is one of the most magical and unique places on the island. No matter how many times I visit, I’m always in awe. The spiritual and breathtaking nature walk through the river is like nothing else — it’s peaceful, healing, and full of natural beauty. Every step feels like a reset for the soul. And the food! There’s a lady who has been working there for years, and let me tell you, her cooking is hands down some of the most amazing food you’ll ever taste in Jamaica. Authentic, flavorful, and made with love — it’s unforgettable. I honestly can’t say enough about how much I love this place. Mayfield Falls will always be a part of my Jamaican story, and I’ll never stop telling people how special it is.

This was a very beautiful and exciting excursion. The water was cool and water flow /current was strong but thankfully we had Super David - our very knowledgeable and impressive guide who helped us to negotiate the quarter of mile tour. David advised us of every single crevice and hole to avoid and exactly where to step safely. David knew the falls like the back of his hand. David was reassuring, funny and friendly guide who was safety conscious. Plus he took priceless pictures of us at various stages of the tour. If you need to do this tour David is the man Big up yourself David - One Love

We drive because we had rental car but anybody can go there by a car or having a local guide take you there also there is a $25 entrance fee per person. The good part of this place is once you come out after the excursion they also offer a meal and the prices are affordable. The people over there the guides are really knowledgeable and when you go through the falls, it’s really easy. It’s not a very dangerous or complicated hike, but after the excursion the way back coming up has a kind of a steep walk so if you are not good walking steep Hill. This will be a challenge for you. Our guide Andray was amazing, friendly and very patient and took our time and privacy. Also he also showed us about a lime stone massage that we applied on our whole bodies (kind of mudd full with minerals that are good for the skin). The visit to a breathtaking natural waterfall in Jamaica was nothing short of magical surrounded by tropical greenery and soothing sound of cascade water. This hidden gym offered a perfect escape into nature the crystal clear water with refreshing, cool and making it an ideal spot to swim and relax. Overall, visiting this natural wonder was unforgettable experience that left me feeling rejuvenated and connected to Jamaica’s incredible beauty. I can’t wait to return.

Entire place was really clean. Staff was friendly, water was absolutely amazing. So refreshing, and clear. Cost to go in is $500 for locals with ID

Wonderful falls underwater caves just great some areas of the river are deep but other areas are great for non swimmers if you can swim it will be so much better 😁wish they had life vest available for use tho. Locals please don’t forge your id cards

Had so much fun. Clean, well maintained, friendly staff, limited parking, nil restaurants, vendors selling mostly jerk, water cool, crisp and nice.

Reach Falls is a must go. Feels like magic!!! Beautiful and peaceful.

If you're visiting reach falls there is a little shop on the corner just before the falls. Ask for Junior he. will show you an amazing side of the falls which most tourists do not get to see like secret caves and and to walk up the beautiful river to the falls. It's a must one of the best things we have done in Jamaica

This is an amazing (hidden) gem. I highly recommend visiting this place if you are in Portland. The falls have amazing blue pools for swimming and areas to dive. Very quiet, serene and beautiful.

Went with a guide I met at Winifred Beach. It was fun exploring the beautiful falls and enjoying a swim in all the different spots, also the cave behind the falls was fun! Reach falls was the highlight of my trip to Portland. Definitely a must!

Away from the hustle and bustle of life and into pure nature. Scenic views at every turn. Indigenous plants only unique to Jamaica. Temp was 11c, didn't sweat once while there. Water was Ice cold if you ask me. The trail was long, arduous, hard on the knees and feet. Reaching the peak was worth it. Very satisfying and breathtaking. Major Letdown: GARBAGE along the trails and at cabin. Very disheartening to see just beauty being disregarded like that.

Lovely experience - day & night. Travel with a group is best and be prepared for the terrain, cool temperature . . .

Tough and long hike! Intended on a sunrise hike so we started when it was dark. Saw spectacular views once we were going down. Lots of beautiful landscapes, fruit trees, etc.. At the peak it was all clouds and fog :( Going down was extra Extra tough on the knees! Especially Jacob’s ladder! Wouldn’t do it again (😬) but I’m so proud I accomplished it, in its’ entirety. Oh getting to the starting point was tough! The road was very rough 😵‍💫😫

Marvellous sceneries and challenging uphill hike. All in one. To bad the linking roads aren’t in well condition sometimes completely inaccessible.

Drive from Kingston to Ocho Rios on the relatively new T3 Toll Highway through the mountains and it was smooth sailing through the mountains all the way!

We enjoyed the mountains so much, it’s as if you can touch them. Breath in the Fresh and clean air. Majestic water falls crystal waters. Bicycles rides and Jamaican food are very well worth the trip.

A place like no other in the world-with the perfect scenery and amazing views-to get away from it all. There is also a spot called the Blue Mountain Cafe-that offers the infamous and Signature Coffee and one that will set the mood right-as you embark on a beautiful journey. Enjoy! I know that I did certainly did.

This experience is a gem! I originally booked on Airbnb and had the host was so kind and understanding when I needed to reschedule my booking. This garden is run by a creative family trio and their talents in art and passion for botany shines through every aspect of the tour. They are also incredibly warm and welcoming, and very knowledgeable of the flora and birds - you will leave relaxed and well-informed. Ahhh...Ras natango Gallery and Garden was a fantastic and fun activity as a solo explorer but I could also see this being a really cute daytime date. As a bonus, there are some fun hidden gems for kids to discover along the way in the garden. The views are beautiful, the birds are friendly, fountain is meditative and photos don't quite capture the magic – you need to experience it for yourself!

Wonderful experience today at the botanical gardens. The owner and his wife and son were so knowledgeable and generous And kind, just good vibes all around. We loved the tour Through the Gardens. It was a great experience for us.We would definitely recommend.

Visiting Ahhh…Ras Natango Gallery and Garden was an unforgettable experience. It was inspiring to listen to Ras share the story of how this vision came to life, adding so much depth to the visit. The garden itself is immaculate, full of vibrant colors and peaceful spaces, and feeding the birds was such a joyful and unique experience. The art gallery is just as beautiful, showcasing creativity and passion at every turn. This is truly a must-visit spot in Montego Bay — a perfect blend of nature, art, and story.

This garden is a well-hidden treasure of biodiversity and humanity. It's an entire experience. The owners and their son together taught us the history of the place and their interactions with the people of Montego Bay, the different plants, how to behave in nature (with a touch of spirituality). There are plenty of pieces of art spread out inside the garden, and so much creativity it makes you want to become an artist. If you want to purchase the owners' work, there is a gallery at the end of the tour. Both of the owners are very talented. The place is suitable for children too. I will let the owners tell you why :) The lovely humming birds accompany you during your journey, and they don't hesitate to perch on your hand (you won't ever forget the sensation). The place is so quiet and relaxing, you will return refreshed. The garden is very well maintained and the diversity of it is exceptional. If you come to Jamaica, you should definitely go there!

Ahh Rastnatango Gallery and Garden is a TRUE HIDDEN GEM! I'm so grateful for the warm accommodation and exceptional tour experience. As a nature lover, I was blown away by the creativity and educational value of this incredible spot. Our tour guide was AMAZING, sharing the rich history and award-winning stories behind this gem. The 1-hour garden tour was a highlight, featuring stunning rock paintings, a charming mini village, and a breathtaking variety of flowers. We also enjoyed the serene pond with vibrant orange fish, feeding the majestic doctor bird, and exploring the gallery's unique paintings – including the incredible eggshell art! The cool high view, top-tier treatment, and affordable pricing made this experience truly unforgettable. Be prepared to be AMAZED! Huge thanks to the wonderful family behind Ahh Rastnatango Gallery and Garden – we can't wait to return!

It's was a wonderful tour of a beautiful garden, an enlightened experience and story behind every area of the garden. The wonderful flora and fauna. Feeding the hummingbirds as a great experience. Each art 🎨🎭 piece having their own story, a picture is worth a 1000 words but these pieces maybe worth 10,000. We loved it

I recently booked this tour through Airbnb Experiences at $35 USD per person. The Airbnb platform made payment and communication easy, and Tamika was prompt and responsive to any questions we had. We even ended up rescheduling our tour due to heavy rains, and she handled it smoothly. Upon arrival, we drove up a steep and narrow road to reach the property. The view was breathtaking, making the journey well worth it. We found parking on the main road at the base of the driveway to the property. Parking on the driveway is not permitted. We walked up the steep driveway and Tamika welcomed us into the gate, as we joined other guests in the sitting area to hear Ras regale us with captivating stories about the property's growth and his artistic journey, leaving us inspired. Tamika guided us through the property, sharing her extensive knowledge about the flora and fauna. We were greeted by friendly hummingbirds and had the opportunity to feed them out of our hands. The property was teeming with dozens of these remarkable creatures, some with the most gorgeous, long tails we’d ever seen. You haven’t lived until you’ve felt a hummingbird land on your finger! After the guided tour of the lush and vibrant property, Ras welcomed us into the gallery/gift shop. His artwork and crafts were on display and available for purchase. After visiting the gift shop, we took our time exploring the diverse plant and tree life, admiring Ras' whimsical painted rocks, sculptures, and natural benches carved from stone and wood. The vibrant colors of the flowers and the peaceful ambiance awakened all our senses. We found the hammocks to be a perfect haven for contemplation and relaxation. The view from the hammocks has to be seen to be believed. Throughout the experience, Tamika and Ras provided excellent hospitality. They offered nature-safe bug repellent and umbrellas for shade. Overall, this 2–3-hour excursion provides a memorable experience for all ages. This property is romantic for couples, educational for families, and safe for singles. Wear comfortable clothes and shoes for walking and climbing stairs. Consider using your voice memo app to record ambient sound to enjoy later. And of course, take lots and lots of photos!

The Luminous Lagoon tour was a really cool experience and definitely something worth seeing. The water actually glows when you move through it, which is wild to witness in person. It’s one of those things you kind of have to see to believe. That being said, the venue itself was pretty average—nothing too special. The staff were friendly and did their best to keep everyone entertained while we waited for the tour to start, but it did feel a bit like they were just filling time. Once we got out on the water, though, it was absolutely worth it. Watching the water light up around us was really unique, and it made for some awesome pictures and memories. If you’re in the area, I’d say it’s definitely worth checking out. It’s not an all-night event, but it’s a very cool and interesting place to visit.

Beautiful sunset. I had had the fried chicken with rice and peas at their restaurant. The fish soup was delicious and it came with my meal. The bread was perfectly warm, for the butter to melt. Before going on the tour, they had some dancers perform on stage. They were very entertaining! We booked the Luminous Lagoon tour and got to see some bioluminescence and even swam in the water! They provide life jackets in case you don’t swim well. Captain Dave was funny and made sure that we all got there and back safely.

The water actually glows when you move through it, which is amazing to witness in person. Before visiting, I’d heard stories about it, but experiencing it firsthand was almost surreal. The venue itself was okay—nothing fancy or special. The staff did their best to keep us entertained with a dance show while we waited for the boat. Once we got out on the water, though, the wait was absolutely worth it. Watching the lagoon light up around us as we swam was incredible! The water is shallow, no more than 4 feet, so you can literally stand in it. The captain and crew were very friendly and informative, and life jackets were provided for those who couldn’t swim. If you’re in the area, I’d definitely recommend checking it out.

A very short bus ride away from the RIU Aquarelle and Royalton. I recommend this excursion if you are nearby. We went as a large group, which resulted in having our own boat. We were welcomed with a rum punch and proceeded to watch the sunset as we waited to embark on our boat ride. The captain and crew entertained us with the history and facts of what makes the lagoon luminous, along with their funny stories, jokes, and marital advice. The water is colder than you might expect. On our return we watched the fire show, which was good.

There are only four places in the world where you can do this. We were staying at the Riu Aquarelle and it is 5 minutes from there. So we had to go. Our guides on the boat were awesome and really funny. Don't be cheap, if you enjoy it then tip them. It's just an amazing experience. When we got back off the boat, they had the fire eating show.

Very magical and unique experience close to mobay. Similar to one in Puerto Rico, but with much less travel and bonus fire show. And they take you to out on the boat, so no strenuous activity, either. You absolutely have to wear water shoes for this activity as it's shallow enough for you to walk in this depth. And no, you don't need to know how to swim to go on this excursion.

Absolutely worth it! So excited I finally got to see the bioluminescent algae, and actually swim in it. Included is a free drink and a fire show before the boat goes out. I'm glad I bought my ticket directly and got my own transportation from the hotel, instead of going through a tour group... So much cheaper. Also, yes you're going to wait until it gets dark. For us that was over an hour--it depends on what time you get there. But either way it was still worth it

This is a wonderful beach about 15km east of Port Antonio that can be enjoyed by sunbathers, swimmers and surfers alike. The entrance fee to park my car was a reasonable 500 JMD. You can also rent lounge chairs for a reasonable charge. The beach has bathroom, change room and shower facilities that can be used free of charge. There are ample places to purchase food particularly world famous Boston Bay Jerk within short walking distance. The beach area was clean and the water warm and pristine. The vibe at this beach was laid back and pleasant. This is another wonderful beach to enjoy in the beautiful Parish of Portland.

This place can either be really calm waters or really rough big waves depends on the day. Very aggressive locals trying to push surfing lessons on you. But other than that it's a good beach. And they will charge 300 Jamaican dollars to get in....

Boston was as beautiful as I had remembered it to be years ago. The beach was very clean & so you’re able to see to the very bottom of the water. We were lucky to see a school of fish swimming by our feet. We unfortunately lost our keys but the staff & divers there were very helpful and tried their best to retrieve it. I love Boston!!

Beautiful secluded beach. Glad to see such incredibly beautiful beach looks still untouched. Hope people who come here to enjoy respect the beauty on not leave trash here. It's heartbreaking to see some people have no respect to such beautiful places. So, much plastic trash around edges. Hope some local organization charges a small fee and maintained this place clean.

Perfect little beach in a secluded bay. There's plenty to do and see around but the beach is what it should be all about if you're visiting here. J$200/US$2 entrance fee. Best place for surfing in Portland with ample boards lying around (obviously not the best) quoted at a J$3000 hourly rate, which is a bit expensive (I'd say it would be a fair price for two hours) but negotiable if you rent it longer. Whatever you get, don't let the price keep you away from the surf! 🤙

A lot of garbage and brown kelp on the beach made it less pleasant for swimming and sunbathing. However it does have decent (but small) waves if you want to learn to surf (surf school is located right on the beach). Entry fee is $300JMD per person and they have bathrooms and a parking lot

Boston has a special ecosystem warm and cool atmosphere. Plush trees that reaches the clouds, beach waters are just the right warmth.

Well-curated work! This museum excellently contextualizes each gallery while remaining doable in around an hour. Surprisingly relevant and free on Sunday :)

Well worth visiting for the history, the art and the gift shop. $4 entry. Highly recommended

Very good value for money and lots to see - both temporary and permanent exhibitions. We learnt a lot about Jamaica and got to see some really spectacular art. Staff were friendly and helpful. Would strongly recommend.

A must visit if you are downtown Kingston and into the arts and culture of Jamaica. Will be back with my family.

It's a very interesting place to visit. Every Jamaican should at least see this place once, just to see the creations of various Jamaican artists. My only wish is that they should include more works from the rastafarian community as well as recent works from young up and coming artists. But aside from that, this place is great. The entire building is air conditioned and some parts of the floor are carpeted. Also there are seats provided to take a break. It costs only JMD$400 for adults to enter

The National Gallery was amazing. It was so well curated, very informative, and not expensive at all. I actually think they should charge tourists more. The PRESSURE exhibit and Kapo wing were both very impressive.

An amazing place to visit. Last visit was over 20 years ago. The atmosphere has changed slightly. All the works are so amazing and the staff are really helpful. Would recommend all ages to visit.

I made a day trip to Port Royal in November with my sister and went to explore the Fort. As a local the entry price is JMD$ 1,500. It was a good experience, I was afraid it might be too "educational" but it was a nice, quick trip back in time. Our guide Charmaine was great, super knowledgeable, very friendly, even helped us to find the right angles and moments for a picture or video. Ask for her when you go!

Very unique and cool history. Half the place went under and the other half came up. Also, the tilted building is pretty cool. But I was surprised by the cannon that actually moves up and down. You do have to buy tickets around the corner. I wouldn’t tell you to go out of your way for it, but if there’s time it wouldn’t hurt to check it out .

A very historical place and the vibes is cool out by the sea. Laid back

Learned a whole lot with just a 45mins to an hour visit. The tour guide was very accommodating and friendly. Leave a tip when your tour is over, they'll appreciate it

I visited the fort as part of a school-sponsored trip. It was really interesting. The tour guide was knowledgeable and taught us all about the history of the fort while giving us a guided tour. I really enjoyed walking around and learning about the different landmarks and seeing them up close. You get to walk around the fort just like the soldiers that once lived there. You will enjoy this tour especially if you are a history buff or just interested in learning about Jamaica's history.

Staff very helpful and tour was excellent. They even break open almonds for you. There was no one else there on a Sunday, which allowed a private tour, beautiful day and excellent guide to tell the history. Go there, learn, and experience a 450 year old jut of land.

Visited as part of a school trip tour with students and parents. The tour was abbreviated from the 1 I received when u visited in 2018. However, the tour guide was knowledgeable and was able to handle a group of restless children well.

We did the black river tour march 19th 2025. Really enjoyable. We had fun with our captain. He knew a lot about the river and it’s surroundings. We saw a few crocodiles and the “mangrove alley”.

Went as part of a TUI excursion. Great guide on the boat. Full of information and good humour. Plenty of Crocs and birdlife. Very peaceful way to experience the Jamaican mangroves

The Black River Safari tour was a great experience & I'd recommend it to anyone who wants a SAFE thrill. We arrived not knowing what to expect but the receptionist explained the tour which alleviated all fears. The tour lasts for 1 h 15 mins & is split into 2 sections (1 hour on a decent sized boat which depends on the crew size & 15 mins in the nursery). During our tour we met crocodiles which the tour guide fed & sometimes stroke, wild birds that prey on baby crocodiles & some fishes. The tour guide was very knowledgeable & embraced all questions, we definitely got a history lesson too. The nursery houses small turtles & baby crocodiles that are unable to hunt . Great experience & would recommend it to all.

I enjoyed my time on the water and learning about the flora and fauna native to Jamaica. Some parts felt like Narnia in real life. I found the upside down hanging trees pretty fascinating and the vastness of the water with both mountain and forest views were particularly captivating. The staff were welcoming. There’s a snack store onsite which seemed to be on the expensive side. The “nursery” with the baby crocodiles and turtles were rather underwhelming and high key concerning. The water they’re being nursed in was very dirty and looked unkept.

Took a while to get started, but, once we started, it was good. Missing a bit more, of something, but can't say what it is. Our guide Dwayne, and as good

We had the pleasure of getting a private tour because no one was there when our boat left. Pretty cool little trip and our tour guide was informative.

We got to see a croc but the captain and hand were more interested in their phones than the guests. As of July 2025 adults $30 kids under 11 $15

Had a great experience or captain was Jay. Upon arrival the area look a little sketchy but Jay made us feel very safe and comfortable. While on the tour we didn't feel rushed and we went with our own pace and our own time. It was a great experience.

Excellent! From the initial booking, Casey was responsive, detailed, and very friendly. She coordinated everything from directions to the tour guide. From the moment we arrived, everyone involved was helpful and courteous. Rafts were classic stretched bamboo just like we expected. JJ was fun, friendly, and presented a great Jamaican vibe. We will be back with family and friends

I loved my experience here. You get a speaker so you can play your own music! I took cute pics and videos as well. Make sure u come! ❤️❤️🔥🔥

We made the best of a cloudy day in Ochi by heading to JM5 rafting. Kyro was an amazing host and Audrey’s soup and Jerk Chicken was so good! We loved our experience and will make it a must every time we come!

This place is a hidden gem! They are located within a private area where you will not get hounded. Customer service is phenomenal. They also have drinks and food for purchase. I highly recommend!

Excellent customer service Big up Frass the captain Big up the artiste/chef Definitely would go again. Blessings

Very friendly service. The rafter had a beautiful 😍 voice. He sang us a sweet song. Tranquil rafting time. Thanks for a lovely time. You are a ⭐️

The overall experience with the dolphins was great and the trainers were awesome. The setup of the entire premises was great I think It needs a little more polish. You have to park on the roadside but the shoulder on that side of the road was very wide so you are well off the road. The staff were all very nice and friendly. We had a good time at the mini zoo before the dolphin experience. There was a small beach where you could do kayaking, but the beach was very small and wasn't clean and I think given the facilities they had the beach could be made into a better experience. There seemed to be multiple restaurants and bars but they didn't all seem to be open when we were there. The water slide was not working at the time when were there. The pool seemed like it could have been cleaner and it looked like only 1 pump on the pool was working. The children seemed to love the pool though. The rates for the photos was high and I think the all or nothing approach to the photos needs to be looked at. They could possibly come up with a per photo pricing and allow you to choose the best 1 or 2 if you can't afford all the photos for everyone similar to what they do at mystic mountain. The food was a little on the expensive side and the burger and fries was very ordinary for the price. The did have a lunch special though for JMD $1300 which was actually very good and it was a decent portion size.

The dolphin experience was unforgettable...definitely would go back. Love that they had other activities on the property...my only concern was the slippery tiles. The tiles in the restaurant was slippery, the ones leading to the lobby area, to the bathroom. Everyone kept slipping. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THAT. But overall my family enjoyed the experience.

This was my second visit to Dolphin Cove, and I can see they've made a lot of improvements since my first visit many years ago. The place is very scenic, and the dolphin experience is absolutely top tier. It was a bit scary walking on the platform and getting into the water, but overall, it was an incredible interaction. That said, the staff experience left much to be desired. Almost all of the workers were not pleasant. There was an undertone in their attitude and a bit of roughness in how they spoke to guests. One staff member even told the man in front of me that she would laugh if he fell, and she repeatedly told people to turn back if they were afraid instead of reassuring them that they would be okay and that their life jackets would help. The platform in the water was also very slippery, which made it even more nerve-wracking. Despite that, I’m really glad my nieces pushed through their fear and went into the water. The pool area is lovely and provides a nice space for children to relax and play under supervision. They also have a restaurant and an ice cream parlor, though I didn't visit them. In the bird aviary, the men working there seemed uninterested and disengaged. I hate to think their attitude was due to us being locals, as I know many don’t tip, though I did. The lobby area was crowded and poorly managed, and again, the staff at registration were not welcoming. The beach area is very small, but the waterslide was lovely and fun. Despite the poor attitude from many of the staff, I would return for the experience itself and the beautiful surroundings.

The dolphin interaction was fun and fairly priced compared to other Caribbean locations. However, the extras were excessive $230 for photos for a family of 4 (no phones/cameras allowed), $10 locker fee, $5 Coke ($10 with card), and only one lunch option included wasn’t even good. The water slide was closed, and the jungle trail consisted of just 8 parrots and 1 iguana. The music was also unnecessarily blasting for a kid-friendly park, especially right by the dolphins. To top it off, after paying for the pricey photo package, the photographer still asked for a tip. Disappointing add-ons to an otherwise enjoyable activity.

Very poor experience. Booked via Royalton/Nexus. Advertised to include. Snorkeling with manta rays, jungle tour see the snakes, kayak, glass bottom boat and shark show. None of this was available on the day. Arrived told to wait around for 2 hours. $10 to use a locker. Very clear you must have one as theft if very likely. 30 mins with as a group with dolphins. (That bit is great) But can't help feeling the site is so small for them! Add in the high pressure photo sale at $60each. Zero response from Royalton/Nexus. A mega let down, left feeling abused by the service. Loved my holiday but this really did ruin the day

Horrible experience save your money this is a tourist trap. The staff is rude, misgendered my 5 year old son after being told multiple times he was a boy. I understand patwa so I heard the negative comments about my son and my body. They will try to squeeze every single penny you have out of you. I originally booked for the admissions plus for two adults and one child under 5. That was $137 total plus tax. It said online it included the mini jungle, sting ray , beach , water slide , kayaking, and food We received a purple wristband, we continued on to the gift shop the lady looked at us and her exact words were “ ok so you got that band ? The cheaper one. “ she then tried to sale me three pictures with the dolphin on a platform for $20 dollars each. It’s three of us that’s $60 dollars. I asked can we just take one family photo i didn’t need three pictures of us individually I just wanted one family picture she said no. I told my husband If we’re going to add the $60 dollars for three pictures we might as well just pay for the dolphin encounter. We went back downstairs and upgraded our tickets. My husband has a Jamaican passport, he presented his passport and he did not receive the local rate btw. I was told it would be $18 per person to upgrade the ticket to the dolphin encounter that’s a pink band. I paid $18x3 which I didn’t understand why I had to pay to upgrade my child who is under 5 when 1-5 years old is free with two paying adults Anyways. I was then told it would be $65 per person to add on photos and these photos are only digital no print outs. So we paid $195 for 3 shots per person. When your in the water you do three poses and they snap a shot of all three so your paying $65 for 3 digital shots. Which is ridiculous When you do the dolphin encounter they split you off into groups based off your wristbands. If you purchase the royal swimmer band they treat you like gold. Or if you’re white they treat you even better because they know you are going to tip them. We paid a total of $386 dollars for about 15 mins in the water with the dolphin. It was very rushed you do three poses with the dolphin and they give you education of the dolphin. And at the end of your experience our instructor asked for a tip. Which I was confused because after paying $386 dollars you shouldn’t be pressured to tip. We went to the mini jungle we saw two rabbits , the birds and an iguana. I was told if my son wanted to touch the birds or if we wanted to take a picture of the birds we had to tip. When we went to see the iguana and the bigger birds the instructor was sleep on the bench we woke him up and he told us if my son wanted to hold the iguana or if we wanted a picture with it we had to tip. At this point I was annoyed because everywhere we went we were pressured for tips after already paying a lot. The stingrays were cool but again after seeing the stingrays our instructor asked for a tip. Sharks weren’t available Kayaking wasn’t available The small beach has cabanas that were dirty. We arrived at 9am opening time so the beach should have been cleaned. The beach is also big rocks so you can’t step in. The meal Included was a piece of chicken rice and peas and veggies no drink. When I asked for my included drink the bartender told me I would have to hide it so others don’t ask. Just an overall horrible experience and complete waste of money. Mystic Mountain was wayyyy better you aren’t pressured for tips staff are friendly and will take pictures of you with your phone for free. I tried to take photos of the tip trays The manager was also not available either.

Awesome must see and do with kids or adults ! Staff was amazing and the animals are well looked after and seem happy ! Price is a bit steep but for the experience its worth it !

This place was pretty dope! The food was pretty good. I went to celebrate birthdays with friends. They came out and sang happy birthday to them, and offered them either key lime pie or rum cake with ice-cream. I think they enjoyed that. I had the jambalaya, and my lady had the red snapper dish. I cant remember what the other two people had, but they said their food was good too. Our waiter named Paige was super friendly and very helpful! If I ever go back, im requesting to sit at her table. We sat by the water as night began to fall. The view of the sunset was amazing! I wish we could've went on a Thursday night. I heard it was jamming for ladies night.

This has been my go to place for over a decade. I would still give it a five out of five, even though I don’t always love the service. The food, the view, the atmosphere, and the music are definitely a five out of five. If you’re looking for tasty American food at a decent price, this is your go to spot.

Great food, amazing service, fun atmosphere, and such a fun ocean water obstacle course! We went twice in our 5 days in the area, our kids loved it!

Music was so loud we couldn’t enjoy any conversation. We had to move to the side and eventually left. It was lunch time and the music was at a level 10 volume. Food and service from Rose was great!

Great restaurant. Amazing food. Beautiful view of the sunset. Service was friendly and quick. They took great care of our big group.

Location is amazing, with views of the beautiful blue water. Food was good also with very fast service. The staff was eager to help and always near by when we needed something. The slide is great and fun to swim on the inflatables in water. Will definitely visit next time we are in the Montego Bay area.

The outside isn’t as appealing as the inside. However, the vibe is nice and so is the staff. The view of the sunset from the deck that sits above the sea is beautiful. The prices are as expected from a place like this. The prices are in U.S. dollars not Jamaican dollars.

Another great experience at Margaritaville Ocho Rios.. We were there a couple years ago during a family vacation and had a wonderful time. My daughter and I were on a cruise there 2 weeks ago. I met my son there who was vacationing with his dad. The food and drinks were excellent, the atmosphere is always a vibe. I believe his name is Greg, phenomenal guy. One Love ❤️can’t wait to visit again🇯🇲

This is exactly what any true Parrot Head dreams of! I’ve been lucky enough to go twice, and both times were amazing experiences—so much fun from start to finish!

I stopped by today as a part of my birthday 🎂 celebration and had a great experience. From the server to DJ Flavor it was a great. He even played games with us and offered shots 🍾 keep it up and yall won't regret it if you go😊🫶

Everything about this place is amazing!! You have many options to dine! You can dine on the beach, in the restaurant, or get it to go! Please stay though because the food is so good! I had the jerk pork tacos and Starter shrimp and it was delicious! The drinks were good and they offer kamikaze shots for $3. The DJ plays great music that can be heard inside, outside and on the beach!! Kudos for the kiddos during the day with the pool and slide inside of the restaurant!! Must be 18 and older to enter or accompanied by adult for kiddo swimming.

Heard a lot about this place so we had to go we went in the daytime it was quiet but I’m sure evening would be a party . It’s a lot like a Red Robin

We went for lunch on Saturday. The place is quite busy. Food was good. Main issues were flies

During my recent cruise stop in Ocho Rios, I had the chance to visit Margaritaville, and overall, it was a solid experience. Pros: Quick 10 min walk from the port. The drinks are very affordable, especially considering the location. It's nice to have a budget-friendly option when you're docked in a touristy area. You get access to the beach for free as long as you purchase food or drinks, which is a great deal. The beach itself was clean, and the water was beautiful—perfect for relaxing and enjoying the sun. Cons: The beach area is on the smaller side, so it can get crowded quickly. It didn’t detract from the experience, but it’s something to keep in mind if you’re hoping for more space. The bathrooms could definitely use some attention. They weren’t as clean as I would’ve liked, which was a bit of a downside.

We got the best tour guide ever! He was absolutely hilarious and incredibly entertaining. The smoke they sell here isn't that strong though so if you're interested in that and need something stronger I'd recommend stopping at a dispensary first. Everyone here will try to sell you something along the way but they take no for an answer the first time. This was a beautiful place and it was nice to learn new things about this incredible music legend and his family. I'd recommend this for the experience for sure.

The tour was amazing. Are guide was great and had a lot of info to share. I loved hanging out drinking my tea on Bob's thinking rock. What a beautiful place for a family to rest. Must due tour if you are in Jamaica. Thank you to the staff🙏🙏. One Love

This was a great experience. Very humbling to see the roots of Bob Marley. Tour guide ‘Captain Crazy’ was informative and entertaining. We visited when my wife was pregnant so had to climb lots of stairs and the smell of Marijuana while expected can be overwhelming at times. Getting there is also fun but challenging (again because of the pregnancy) the entire drive up to Nine Miles is hilly and curvy, so be prepared for motion sickness. Other than that it’s a great tour of the legends birthplace and final resting place.

I did the mile 9 Bob Marley experience and let me tell you it did not disappoint. So full of culture and beauty. I felt so lucky to see his birth place and where he was laid to rest. They had a live band and it was smoke friendly throughout the tour. I definitely recommend this activity 👌🏽 💯🙏🏽🇯🇲😎 beautiful culture and beautiful people.

Going to the Bob Marley village in Nine Mile was more than just a sightseeing trip; it was a pilgrimage. It's an experience that truly connects you to the heart and soul of Jamaica and the man who put reggae on the world stage. The drive itself was an adventure, winding through the beautiful Jamaican countryside and offering a glimpse of local life outside of the resorts. When we arrived, the energy was incredible. Our Rastafarian guide, with his easy smile and deep knowledge, brought Bob's story to life. He showed us the small, humble house where Bob was born and spent his early years, and it was surreal to walk through the rooms and see the space where his life and musical journey began. We got to see "Mt. Zion Rock," the sacred spot where Bob would meditate and write songs. The feeling of being in the very place that inspired some of the world's most iconic music was truly powerful. The whole atmosphere was filled with a sense of peace and a fun, laid-back vibe. It was a day of laughter, learning, and feeling the "one love" spirit that Bob Marley shared with the world. It was an unforgettable and deeply moving experience that gave me a whole new appreciation for his music and his message.

The museum is a great experience. Our guide was very knowledgeable and funny. We enjoyed the tour, steel drums, and history. Some locals got us outside the museum for a private “plantation tour” which we were glad we experienced too. Don’t forget to get your Bob Marley shot!

Absolutely amazing experience to visit such an iconic legend. The way it is set from start to finish is brilliant. The tour guide Benji was on top form and top class 👏 the perfect guide with so much knowledge and experience being a local community and knowing the family just makes it the best tour to visit. The roads are not the best getting their and the locals can be a bit pushy to buy things but worth the whole journey once visited.

Wow! Aside from the perfect service and awesome experience of the Blue Hole mineral spring, these are very honest people. I jumped from the ladder and in the process of doing so dropped $500 into the hole and didn't realize it until we were on our way back to our villa on West End. I immediately contacted Blue Hole. The retrieved my money and called me to pick it up. Wow!!! Thank you to the diver, Thravel, Antwade, and the owner, Wabba. Great blessings to you all.

Wayneisha is the BEST. I was so afraid initially and she put me right at ease. Thanks for an amazing afternoon. Shouts to the chef and his companion. First time I tried chicken curry pasta! Yes I know it sounds weird, but it was good.

Such a beautiful place! Fun and exhilarating to jump to your certain death! 🤣 took some time to work up the courage but I did it! Also fun to lounge around down there in the cool waters on the inner tubes they have for shared use. They also have life jackets, a lifeguard, a bar and waiting area for drivers, and an optional weed farm tour. Entry fee was $20 usd per person for the blue hole. Very nice staff and term clean and well organized! it is a small place so if you have a couple of large groups it would be crowded very quickly. The entry road was small and rough, and despite what Uber says, no one will pick you up to take you there! You have to find a driver who will take you and wait or go with a tour group. I would recommend just going w/ a taxi so there aren't automatically a ton of other people there

It's smaller than we expected but worth the drive! The water is refreshing and there are several heights to jump from or a ladder to climb down. There's also a mineral water fed swimming pool, a bar and a restaurant. It was a highlight for us and I highly recommend it.

The Blue Hole Mineral Spring was a fun experience. It is $20 per person to swim, so a total of $40 for the two of us. It is a little remote like 40 min drive from West End Negril where we were staying and the road for about the second half of the drive is fairly narrow with a lot of pot holes. We had a little Toyota with small wheels so I would recommend a car with larger wheels or better would be an SUV if you drive yourself like we did. If you’re only interested in the Blue Hole itself like we were then you prob only need 30 min to an hour there as it is just the one hole to jump into/swim and it isn’t extremely large. The jumps are roughly 20 to 30 ft depending on which side of the hole you jump from. Overall it was a fun and adventurous experience (including the drive) especially if you like to jump from high places like we do. It was $40 total for us since we already had the car, but it might be a little expensive if you need to hire a driver/taxi plus admission.

Visited early on a Sunday so there was no waiting to get in. Our guide was patient and helped us with the climb up the river. Not sure what I expected but this is not a calm river and the pools are deep judging by the color of the water It’s a dark deep blue. The water was cold as river water always is. Beautiful place would definitely visit again.

This is not an activity or site worth $20. Simply to walk around they charge $10 and to swim it is $20 per person. It is a literal hole. There is not much around either. The best part was a view from the top of the house but even that is skippable at $10 entry fee. Do not waste your time driving to this site.

This was our first time visiting the Swaby Black River Safari and we were warmly welcomed by the lovely lady at the ticket desk—so polite and friendly. We then set off with our captain, Cornell, who was incredibly knowledgeable. We learned so much about the crocodiles, the Black River, the local wildlife and plant life, as well as the history and surroundings of St. Elizabeth and neighbouring Trelawny. Everyone on our tour had a fantastic time—Cornell kept us entertained with fun trivia and nonstop jokes. We were able to interact with the adult crocodiles and touch them. After the tour, we got to see baby turtles and hold the baby crocodiles. Honestly, this is one of the best experiences I’ve had in Jamaica. We absolutely loved it!

There is adequate parking, the waiting area needs improvement, the entrance and the area to buy the ticket seemed incomplete. The bathrooms looked newly renovated and everywhere including the bathroom was clean. For the tour- I LOVED it! The tour guide was very knowledgeable and charismatic. He was very interactive with us and the crocodiles seemed like they were paid actors too! I’d definitely recommend here.

I've been wanting to do this tour for a while now. I was so mesmerized, the captain, the crocodiles, the journey up the Black River. It was awesome. My 6yr old son could not stop talking about it for days. Please go and enjoy the experience. Well worth it.

We had an excellent time with our guide! He was really funny and knowledgeable. We had a great time and saw a few crocodile. We even got to hold a young one inside the nursery. Really well worth the price of admission. We went on the 10am tour and weren't disappointed at all... ♥ 🐊

Visited here today and was able to do the 1pm tour. The staff who welcomed us were pleasant and helpful. The boat captain Daniel was very knowledgeable and funny. His knowledge and humour calmed all of us who were nervous. He had someone with him who helped to feed the crocodiles and he was very good too. You can buy tickets ahead of time but it wasn’t necessary. I’d recommend knowing the tour times so you don’t have to wait too long for the next one. We saw about 5 crocodiles too and were able to pet the baby crocs too

It has been a rewarding experience to learn about the flora and fauna of this wonderful place.

This boat ride wasn't on my radar but I'm so happy it included in our package. It was an exceptional experience. There's plenty of space on the boat, so every seat is really a good seat. If sitting in the sun is a concern, go for the inside seat. The river is beautiful! Being out on the water, getting a little history, and observing the animals was quite entertaining. My husband really enjoyed it to. This attraction is a hidden gem that everyone should find.

What an amazing experience!!! It was a beautiful, educational, peaceful, and uplifting time at the sanctuary and with our guide and new friend Fritz. Walking in you see a beautiful home and property. Then we were led to the large wooden patio where you can sit and feed these beautiful birds. Besides the amazing view we were instructed on how to get the hummingbirds to land on our fingers and feed on sugar water. What a unique and wonderful experience to have the birds sitting on your fingers or on your legs that close. Meanwhile Fritz told about the history of the place and identified and told us about the birds. After we had done that for about an hour he gave us a tour of the fauna and foliage around the house. We learned about some of the medicinal benefits of the plants and enjoyed walking the property. Could not recommend this more highly.

This was an ethereal and one in a life time experience!Not only getting to learn more about the bird species, our national bird but also being able to see and feed them up close! Booked this experience for my birthday and I want disappointed! Though it seems simple, it’s honestly so wholesome and exciting at the same time, you just have to experience it for yourself!

' .Visiting Rocklands Bird Sanctuary was an exceptional experience. The sanctuary itself is a brilliant idea, set amidst stunning, tranquil scenery that makes the whole visit feel peaceful and refreshing. The staff were insightful, polite, and attentive, ensuring we had an unforgettable experience. The highlight was getting up close with the local birds, especially the hummingbirds—watching them in their natural environment was truly magical. The surrounding atmosphere added to the sense of serenity, making it a perfect escape into nature. This is a must-visit for anyone who loves wildlife, beautiful landscapes, and a genuinely immersive experience.

Wild birds (hummingbirds and others) trusting to eat out of your hand. Very unique experience. We drove there with our rental car. It was US$30/person. [I live in the US. I know Jamaica quite well as I’ve been going there often for the last 25 years. Always renting our own car. The roads have gotten better but back roads can be tricky. If you are not confident in your driving skills, including reversing down narrow bumpy roads along steep ravines have a qualified local driver take you there. These are public roads and the bird sanctuary is not responsible for their condition.]

Had an incredible experience with my granddaughter—up front and personal feeding of hummingbirds. Very fascinating to see how they suddenly just appear right at your fingertips feeding on sugar water. Loved it.

Visiting Rocklands was one of the highlights of our trip. The sanctuary is peaceful, quiet, and tucked away from the busy tourist spots. Getting to hand-feed hummingbirds—literally have them land on your finger—was such a unique and calming experience. The staff was kind and knowledgeable, and the whole place felt personal and genuine. It's not flashy or overly touristy, and that’s what makes it special. If you’re an animal lover or just want to do something different and peaceful in Jamaica, this is totally worth the trip

Fab day today at Rocklands would highly recommend! It’s a real pleasure to experience such a wonderful sanctuary. Many thanks to the staff for being so welcoming.

Crew was great unfortunately that side of jamaica doesn’t seem to have much fish? Better to fish the north or east shore. These guys give you more of a tour than fishing, evident by not jigging/changing bait, doing something different to attract the fish(like other companies do)etc. It was good to be on the ocean, but they aren’t that good at producing bites. Mostly just blind driving waiting for a bite. I think these guys specialize more in diving and water sports than fishing. There are better fishing companies in Jamaica, just keep looking. Also they are fairly pricey for what they deliver. Would not use them again. 2 out of 5 solely for the fishing side of the excursion. After $1000 USD all we had to show was 1 small tuna weighing 3 pounds in the boat. Again, the crew was awesome, very friendly and accomodating. 5/5 👍🏽👍🏽 Thanks captain and deckhand for the trip.

If I could give zero stars, I would. I went out with a group for deep sea fishing and it was a complete waste. They troll at ridiculously high speeds. You could literally see the lure skipping across the surface. No live bait was used, and unsurprisingly, we caught nothing. I gave them a second chance with a bottom fishing trip. We got a few bites, but they were nothing more than tiny reef fish. For about $800 total, I caught maybe three undersized fish. On top of that, I fell during the trip and ended up with a nasty bruise, not to mention getting seasick. I asked for a refund at least for the deep sea fishing, but have been strung along for over a month with no resolution. Save yourself the money and frustration. These guys clearly don’t care about their customers.

Captain Stanley’s Crew was Professional & Really Great @ what they Do. They will work hard to help you catch Fish. Unfortunately I had an off day with only 1 fish in 7 hrs but not bc of a lack of trying. Seeing Dolphins 15 miles out was an Unforgettable Experience. I’m am for Sure going back out with them again next time. Oh, They even used a smaller boat to pickup my family & add bring them to meet us. We had a Spectacular Time 🐬🐬

Great experience and great crew. I recommend that you go directly to the experts and bypass all the vendors that say they will take you deep sea fishing but not equipped to do so. I had many locals on the beach that say they can take you fishing. Ask specific questions like does your boat have a cabin and bathroom. Not just a umbrella and bucket. You don’t want to get your family out on water and find no shade and no real bathroom. We were pleased with All the staff and hospitality. Will do it again.

I cannot say enough about Stanley's! I have used Stanley's on two separate occasions for scuba diving charters and I have nothing but the absolute best things to say. Stanley and all staff went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and having the best time. These are some of the greatest people I have had the pleasure of meeting. I would highly recommend Stanley's!

My exceptional day with Stanley’s Deep Sea Fishing and Water Sports surpassed all expectations, offering a seamless blend of exhilarating deep-sea fishing, serene sailing, and a delightful encounter with playful dolphins. From the outset, Stanley’s showcased their commitment to customer service, providing a convenient pick-up from my place of stay, ensuring a smooth and worry-free beginning to my sea adventure. The deep-sea fishing experience was extraordinary, with the crew’s expertise in trolling techniques leading us to success. Catching a stunning blue marlin and tuna was a thrilling highlight, adding to my global fishing experiences across Oman, South Africa, Cyprus, Ecuador, France, Australia, the USA, and many other countries. The cleanliness and maintenance of Stanley’s boat were unparalleled, standing out as the most pristine I have ever encountered in my extensive travels. Sailing on a Hobie Cat offered a more intimate and personalized adventure. With just the guide and me, we navigated the waters, fully immersed in the tranquility and beauty of the ocean. The guide’s skill ensured a safe yet thrilling experience, capturing the essence of sailing. A magical moment unfolded as a group of joyful dolphins graced us with their presence, leaping alongside the boat and adding a touch of wonder to our adventure. Stanley’s, a locally-owned operation, truly stands out for their genuine warmth and dedication to providing a memorable experience. The crew’s passion for the sea and their community shines through, creating a welcoming and professional atmosphere that feels like home. In conclusion, Stanley’s Deep Sea Fishing and Water Sports offers a comprehensive and unforgettable sea adventure, combining the thrill of deep-sea fishing, the serenity of sailing, and the joy of wildlife encounters. Their attention to detail, cleanliness, and commitment to local values make them an exceptional choice for sea enthusiasts. I wholeheartedly recommend Stanley’s, and I am grateful for the memories made during this unparalleled day at sea.

The captain does the same thing every time out, goes out for 1.5 hours turns around for the next 1.5 hours then goes a long shore for about 1 hour. No electronics, no real experience, we're serious fishermen and understand you can't always catch fish but these guys don't know anything about deep sea fishing. Don't waste your money

As Canadian tourists traveling independently—not on a cruise or staying at an all-inclusive resort—we found our visit to Greenwood Great House to be one of the most rewarding and affordable experiences of our trip. The house itself is a beautifully preserved piece of Jamaican history, filled with fascinating artifacts and stories, but what truly made the tour exceptional was our guide, Kyla. She was engaging, knowledgeable, and brought the house to life with her warm and insightful storytelling. This was easily one of the best experiences we've had in Jamaica—don’t miss it! As of July 2p25 $30 adult $20 under 12

Beautiful home. So much history and well maintained. Lovely grounds. A real pleasure to visit. Excellent tour guide!

The tour was interesting, but it was made great by our tour guide! Not only was she well-informed, but her ability to draw us into the history of the home was remarkable! Her personality was perfect. She also made sure each of us understood what was being discussed and patiently answered every question. The surprise?? The house is a home! A Barrett family member still resides on the property!

This was a fantastic tour by a wonderful lady who was passionate, warm and knowledgeable. The road to get there is…a bit rough. You will definitely earn your P.H.D. (Pot hole dodging degree) on the way there. However, once you get there it’s a fantastic experience. There is a small bar there as well and I highly suggest having a drink after the tour and chatting with the staff.

Greenwood is one is the best preserved examples of the plantation era Jamaican Great House. Magnificent hilltop location, with wide view of the Caribbean sea. Built in late 1700s by Richard Bennett. Most of the items are authentic: furniture, antique china and silverware, crystals, oil paintings and Barrett family memorabilia, rare musical instruments, intact original library (with up to 300 books, some dated as early as 1697.) Worth a visit! Strongly recommended.

Enjoyed our visit to this house which made a good mini trip destination. Lots of interesting artifacts, beautiful views and informative guide who also showed us around the small garden.

Great tour and great experience! The historical value of all the artifacts in this house is impressive! The guide was very knowledgeable and took her time with our kids. I think the only thing missing in the tour would be a moment, or sector of the tour, really dedicated to the life of the slaves in themselves, how they lived, what was their days like, etc. So to balance the opulence of the house with the actual reason they could be in such luxury by having slaves working for them. Otherwise I really recommend it it’s a different side of Jamaica different from just the fun beaches and falls.

We came here with Inside Tours Jamaica and had an amazing time. The tour guides were informative and gave an amazing presentation regarding the history of rum production and Appleton. The tasting at the end was great and they have an awesome gift shop. If you’re in Jamaica hit this place up. Make sure to get your drink at the bar when you are waiting to start the tour it was amazing!

The Appleton Estate tour was a really good experience. It was interesting to see the process behind the rum-making and you could tell a lot of care goes into every step. The staff were warm, welcoming, and very knowledgeable which made the tour even more enjoyable. One suggestion for the future would be to offer a souvenir option, maybe a small flask of Appleton rum at a discounted price or a package that includes it. It would be a nice touch for visitors to take a little piece of the experience home. Still, even without that, the tour was well worth it and I’d definitely recommend it.

The Appleton Estate Rum Tour was excellent! The welcome drink was a pleasure and the feel of the welcome center was luxe with comfy seating. Once our tour began we watched a brief film about the estate after which we walked out onto the grounds. The history and breakdown of how rum was made was insightful and eye opening. My favorite part of the tour was the tasting session where we were able to identify the different notes in different versions of Appleton rum. The well stocked gift shop was also a good shopportunity. My only slight issue during my visit was the food. The grilled chicken was adequate but was most definitely not jerk, as described. Overall a good experience. Will recommend and revisit again soon.

My wife and I with our friends visited this place October 16, 2025. Rasia was our guide and she was a great historian and person. Super funny and knowledgeable. This was our third time in Jamaica but first time visiting Appleton. It was a great visit and worth the drive from Montego Bay. I would recommend this tour.

Thank you for an incredible experience at Appleton Estate! Our guide, Danielle, was warm, friendly and so knowledgeable! And the food in the restaurant was excellent! The rum tasting was also a fantastic experience and tasting the different varieties was definitely a learning experience. I had no idea that the tastes could be so different and Danielle did a great job explaining the flavor profiles. We also decided to taste the 15 and 21 year aged rums and fell in love with both of them! We purchased the 21 year old rum and look forward to savoring it in the future!! Anyone visiting Jamaica should make it a priority to visit Appleton Estate!! :-)

It was a wonderful tour full of history and rum of course. The tour cost $3,000 jmd for Jamaicans, this includes cocktails. Please bring an ID. We were hungry so we headed straight to the restaurant. Our server was Burma and she was awesome. The food was reasonably priced and it tasted good. I had the jerk pork and chicken mix ( see picture) with original daiquiri and mek mi tell yu...it did good. Great day of fun and rum. Our tour guide was Rasia and she was awesome. 😃😃😃 Go check it out and leave a top of appreciation 😉☺️

Chukka and Appleton Estate came through clutch for me. I Went on a tour with my groomsmen and guests who were attending my wedding on the next day. I let our transportation company know I had to be back by 5p for my wedding rehearsal. They arrange a private tour for us at the estate so we could get the full experience and leave on time. We didn't feel rush and the experience was amazing! I am not a drinker of alcoholic beverages, but you will feel like a rum expert and know your way around a good bottle afterwards. *For those looking for this comment* You can take kids on these tours, minus the rum tasting session of course.

Great facilities, perfect for large groups and family activities. Go-karts, paintball, rafting, canoeing and other activities are available. Slides are great, be sure to try the 'Lightning Bolt'. Staff is awesome and so is the food. An adult pool should be made available because if you don't want to slide or go down the lazy river the next best option is the kids section. Always a great experience going here, just need that adult swimming pool to make it perfect.

The staff is the best part of this water park. For the cost it's not much to brag home about. Slides aren't that high, thrill level isn't all that. I cannot imagine the park on a busy day. It would not be worth it in any way shape or form. The experience was okay and the staff and food was exceptional. I hope they will invest in expanding the park soon to bring some more thrilling rides for the thrill seekers and try and achieve better economies of scale. I would recommend the park to individuals who aren't thrill seekers or people who just want to spend a day relaxing in the water. The lazy river for me was the best "ride" at the park.

I enjoyed my time here. The wait to get in is a bit lengthy because there were not enough persons collecting payment. However, the wait for each slide/ride was not long though the park was pretty busy. I love the Green Grotto Slide and Human Gyroscope. Lunch and refreshment can be found inside the park and there are locker rentals available and a gift shop. The staff seemed pretty pleasant and the entertainment was good. This was my second visit and I would definitely go for a third.

My family and I really liked the water park. The space was clean and visually appealing. Upon arrival we parked in the roadside as it was observed that most cars were parked there, and the designated parking lot was actually empty. Payment was made and the entry fee is $2400 per adult, children under 3 years free. I was told I needed a waterproof diaper for my 2 year old although she was fully potty trained. The option was buy the diaper or pay the entry fee. The diaper was cheaper so I did that. The park was clean and the infrastructure up to date. The colors were appealing and we were excited. There were lifeguards on location to assist with whatever was needed but the caution whistle was blown quite frequently and I wasn't sure if I was being cautioned or it was just two staff members trying to get each other's attention. The slides were fun, I particularly liked the red and blue ones. Only draw back was having to climb that many stairs to get to all the fun. The kiddies pool was also fun and my little one couldnt get enough of that coconut playground. Overall we all had a grand time and will definitely go back.

The experience of the park was wonderful...they a variety of activities on property but you have to pay for each activity which only gives your one play..but waterslides are unlimited. You cannot take food but the food options and prices were reasonable. Good for groups, family, old and young...there is something for everyone...ohh they have entertainment too... that was good too... unexpected.

Beautiful property its a perfect little getaway for a day of wet fun!!! With many slides and things to do for rhe entire family from the wave pool to the slides youre gauranteed a day of fun! Was there for the Dream Weekend party and it was really wet and wild!!!

Great place, wide variety of water slides also boasts a kiddies water palace, a go-cart track, a trampoline among other things kiddies. An eclectic array of traditional and contemporary foods are available for purchase in the food court on site

Right, this one was very interesting. The culture yard is literally 5 rooms and a yard. The entrance fee is 20$ US and we didn't get a receipt. There is a guide there who will tell you the story of how reggae music began in Jamaica and how Bob Marley made it popular all over the world. If you are into this stuff you will find it very interesting. BUT, the guide himself is a 'museum' as he is a very weird person and I marveled at him more than I marveled at the empty rooms in the museum. I am almost certain he was stoned and he gave me the feeling that we are not welcomed there. 🤦 I went there with two guys, but if I were alone, I would have felt very uncomfortable. The culture yard is located in the middle of the worst neighborhood in Kingston. You go there by car. YOU DO NOT WALK!!! You don't get off to take pictures or anything. You don't go there without a local! If you're into reggae music, I don't recommend it. Spend that money at the Downs river.

This tour was pure comedy. We did the basic $20 tour. Black & Proud A.K.A. Mr. Johnson is hilarious. He was under the influence while giving our tour. He basically read the signs in the room and threw in an occassional song for entertainment. He invited me to sit on Bob Marley's bed while telling a story of a lady getting pregnant by Bob's ghost. I'm a scary indivual and not once did I feel threatened in this area. I even walked a bit to capture the wall art. While you're here you may as well visit May Pen Cemetary for the elaborate tombstones. The Tivoli Garden side (next to Tivoli High School) is open allowing you to enter and view up close.

Incredible. I did the full tour and walked through the streets of Trenchtown with my guide. It felt like Guinee, West Africa. The guide told me that every single visitor he gets, whether it be China or Brazil, said it feels just like home. If you know, you know. We are all truly connected, more than you think. I take great pride in knowing how much pride the people of Jamaica have for their people. It was worth every single bit of time and money I spent. Blackie, my tour guide, thank you so much for everything 🙏🏾🥰🌹

A great way to see how it all began for Bob. However, the full guided tour could be too much for some. As it goes into details about other reggae artists that some may not know or fully appreciate all the connections. The museum tour was informing and insightful.

What a visceral telling of where Bob's lyrics come from. Stone man's presentation of our relationship to the natural world, and the wisdom it gives... fully powerful!

Pretty steep price for a short tour of a small area. The guide was passionate about the tour, though his accent was thick and challenging to understand at times. Only waited a few minutes for the tour. Facilities relatively well maintained, though aged.

Good to see where Bob came into his own to do "big man thing". Conditions were very basic. They have done a good job preserving the site lots of photos to see. Suggest one goes with a tour guide as the neighborhood is still rough.

There are not enough stars to give this special staff and place in such a beautiful part of the world. And no words can describe to pure love and joy that radiates across the every part of this place. Who knew that I would have a new family in Jamaica, after meeting as complete strangers , and sharing just a few days together?!?! The food is amazing and made with pure love. Every part of this property has love poured into that overflows to the guests. You just have to be there and be present to feel it all first hand! Thank you Good Hope! You have a special place in my heart! “Mikee”

Just really touristy and a blatant money extraction organisation. 3 US dollars for a bottle of water and rum tasting albeit very informative was not meeting expectations. The kids enjoyed the tubing and water slide, but realistically we could have had a day at the beach.

It was okay. Get your own transportation because it's hot and you have to wait for HOURS in the heat for the bus even if your the last people here .... the bikes and raft are pretty good. Adrianne who was our guide on the raft was awesome. I would have given better reviews if I didn't have to wait so long to leave once we were done with the tour. We had to wait over TWO HOURS in the sweltering heat ... My suggestion is to make sure you are first in and first out or find your own transportation back to your hotel

I spent a beautiful 5 nights at Good Hope. The whole estate is vast with a section of the land tucked away running adventure activities. I was staying at the peaceful old house attending a private retreat. From the welcoming staff to the delicious home-cooked food and amazing birdlife and flowers, everything was perfect. The house can be rented privately for special occasions and events and has had some famous guests during its deep, moving and very special history. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to spend some unforgettable time there and hope one day to return. Thank you to the staff and the owners for making us feel so very welcome and making their home ours!

Great family day out. Lots of activities for adults and children as well as the historical elements and lovely water park. Can be expensive to do everything, but we really enjoyed it.

Awesome, great food lovely people amazing rooms and perfect clean getaway spot. Ziplining touring, horse back riding company below wow.

A wonderful place for rest and relaxation surrounded by the lush greenery and the cacophony of sounds of the Caribbean. Salt water infinity pool is a plus. The staff prepared delicious meals locacally sourced. It was a delight to stay here.

This is only a beach with a snacks table and bathroom. There are a few picnic tables. There is no play ground or any other activities. You are much better off going to doctors cove for a few dollars more. Hours are 9-5.

Alert 🚨 This Beach 🏖 is NO Longer open for swimming. It is being renovated to be the new terminal to welcome cruise ships 🛳

I love the renovations. The place is really clean and not overcrowdedm nice soit if you wanna hang out with family or friends.

An aesthetic upgrade is required. Once you get past that you can have real fun here. There is a skating rink, go cart ride. If you have little regards foe opinions you can get massaged on the brach. Then you can stay the night for the exotic club.

There is no theme park here. Condemned shanty town filled with junkies and homeless people. It looks more like Chernobyl than a water park. The “go kart track” looks like something out of the flinstones. Watch out for Bigfoot/Bigfeet, local scam artist that tried to rob us at a local ATM. Would highly recommend the Pork Pit across the street though. Amazing jerked chicken!

Price is affordable, beach was not crowded, have place to wash off also to change your clothes, inside parking etc...

Always a pleasure visiting this spot, family friendly venue, very clean beach, life guard always on duty, paid entry but very affordable, snacks and drinks sold on spot also at really affordable prices, and close to all the other food spots in Montego Bay like Pork Pit ( Real good food ), KFC and some others

There’s not a lot of info out there, so here’s what I wish I knew: • The drive from Kingston to Mavis Bank is easy enough for any car, though local drivers can be aggressive—be confident behind the wheel. • Park at the Mavis Bank Police Station (5–6 spots, free). • From there, contact Jay’s Guesthouse for a ride to the trailhead (~$60 one way). A 4x4 is a must. • A guide isn’t necessary—the trail is safe, well-marked, and the locals are kind—but hiring one can enhance the experience. • Little to no cell reception, except at the Ranger Station. • Start early and aim to summit by 9am—after that, the mountain is usually clouded over and rainy. • Bring a light rain jacket. The peak is chilly and damp, but there’s shelter and benches at the top. • Totally worth it, especially for the rare tropical elfin forest at the summit.

Most beautiful as hike I have ever done.The view is simply and truly amazing. We ended up parking at the Police station and then hopping in a 4 Wheeler and headed up to where the trail headed starts.It is definitely a very Bumpy rolled up.It took us about an hour driving distance till we hit the trail.Head once you get there.You will be truly amazed by the views that you will see. This Mountain is a must see total 360 views. Hard hike with rocky scrambles in some sections.

Worth the 7 hour round trip and then some. Be WARNED. This hike is not for everyone. It's very difficult and mentally challenging not to mention physically. Take your time, do it for sunrise as we did. The best views of the island from above. A renowned sense of accomplishment at the top. Our guide Charlie made it a memorable trip. There's a lot of different terrain. Make sure to wear hiking boots and bring a spare shirt. You'll need it for the sweat you accumulate on the way up. On average it takes 4 hours to hike up. If you're fit you can do it in 3 and then 2 hours to come down. The view at the top is undescribable, truly something only to be seen photos don't do it justice. Hope for a clear day, bring snacks and drink plenty of water.

So this is my second time going up the blue mountain...people dont stress how cold it is especially if you make it to the top to watch the sunrise. Its October and we were all freezing and i wore a shirt , a sweater and a hoodie .. dont forget your gloves like i did. The way to the blue mountain isnt cold but at the ranger station and the peak has heavy cold winds. Becareful and have fun as it is all worth it. @Glash.Flash

Great hike! The trail was well maintained ( as expected since you have to pay US$ 20 to enter the park). From the typical start point for the hike, it’s about 7km distance and 1000m elevation gain to cover. If you’re an experienced hiker this hike will be quite easy for you - The incline is very gradual for the most part. However, for inexperienced persons, it could definitely be challenging. But a great experience all the same!

It was worth the climb!!! The journey was long but it was nice n cool. We started the climb at the hiking trail by the little coffee shop at 11:58am n got to the peak 5:12am. I walked slowww ppl passed us on the way including a 9yr old

It’s therapeutic. The hike, the reward of sunrise and the views of clouds and valleys to take back as long lasting memories. Tip: First timers should go in a group or with professional guides, Terran is challenging and follow the signs and instructions without doubt. Travel light with good amount of water and a raincoat

I loved this centre. It was great having the guide show each exhibit. He shared lots of knowledge on the history of the island and the exhibits. Also very engaging. The artwork in the gallery was lovely as well. A beautiful building.

An amazing display of the Jamaican uprising and fight for freedom. Paid a small fee/donation to enter the self guided tour. Observed the historical relics that were saved over time that showed what the Jamaican people fought hard for in there chase for emancipation. Across the hall is a historical documentation of the Rastafari movement and its origins. Beautiful colors, pictures and video that depicts the movement and its trails and tribulations over time. Wonderful museum and display of the historical history of the Jamaican culture, history and people. Worth a visit!.

Essential visit to gain an understanding of Jamaican history. Few artefacts, but lots of panels to read with detailed information and a separate hall about Rastifarianism, of which I knew little and was glad to learn more. The art gallery was closed when we visited.

This tour was very informative. Learnt much about the history of Jamaica. Campbell the tour guide was great at providing details.

Nice Museum located in the middle of Montego Bay town. Has a lot of information on Jamaican history and the arts. The arts area is separate form the historic area which I think is good. I think the Art area could have more information and history but the historical area was great with informatuon and it had a great collection of historical artifax etc...gift shop has nice stuff but I don't think they showcase it well. Prices are average and they do a local rate which is great. Overall definitely somewhere to visit if on the area.

My child did the summer workshop organized by the Montego Bay Cultural Center this summer. It was amazing, an incredibly formative and fun experience. I strongly recommend enrolling your children next year!

Montego Bay Cultural Centre is located downtown bustling Montego Bay overlooking Sam Sharpe Square which is quite relevant. There is a small admission fee, this former courthouse and former council offices now house Jamaican past, it is a museum to Jamaicas past and depicts Jamaica origins and Jamaican fight and discovery by Christopher Columbus though to Slavery and the horrific way slaves were treated and many died, it charts the abolition of slavery, Sam Sharpe was prevalent in this, it charts the afterlife and struggles to what is now independent and tourist attraction and destination Jamaica, there is lots of art and artistic items of great interest and value. In a separate section is the Rastafarianism, it’s origin from Ethiopia, it’s rise in Jamaica, the lifestyle, its path in music, it’s leader Haile Selassie and it’s growth around the world and the persecution of Rastas, it was definitely an eye opening experience. If in Montego Bay this is definitely a place to visit and immerse yourself in Jamaican history which is interesting and the aspects of Jamaican life and culture.

I live in Europe/Switzerland and went to Jamaica in 2018. Rastafari was one of my most impressive experiences in Jamaica - I would love to visit again. This place gives you many life lessons to take with. I‘ve seen how grateful, happy and warmhearted people are. You look at their faces, and you see the satisfied and grateful expression. They appreciate every single detail about mother nature. I will always remember "KING TOTO" I had tears in my eyes, when he was talking about his handmade drums!!! I hope he is still there. Thank you so much for this experience.

Spent 8 days at the village it speaks community and oneness the food and the energy was very good for my nervous system give thanks Jah Rastafari

Not quite the authentic Rastafarian people. The souvenirs are sold at 3 times the price you will find later in other places in Jamaica and the tour was really not worth the 100 dollars we paid. In the end they didn’t even take us to the village where presumably about 10 people live. We ended up hanging out in the front area and listen to some songs and basically given the choice of buying their artifacts.

The Rastafari Indigenous Village is operating on a smaller scale recovering from Covid-19. Yours are operating on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays 10:00-13:00 but you must book in advance. Minimum group size of 2 at $150 per person for a 2-3 hour experience. The village offers a relaxed but structured discovery of Rastafari beliefs and lifestyle - if you bring an open mind you can take away learning as well as a few souvenirs. Highlights include an expert tour of flora with a focus on medicinal uses and cooking your own lunch. A welcoming, interesting diversion into a more authentic culture than your hotel can offer. Recommended.

My husband, son, nephew, and I did an excursion to this village from our cruise ship. We truly loved learning about the religion, culture, and the day to day lives of the Rastafarian people who reside here. This is NO homeless village as another reviewer speculated. The villagers work together and teach those who do visit about the Rastafarian Religion. They are very proud and giving people willing to share their love of the earth to those who visit. Definitely visit if you are willing to step outside your box and learn there is more to this world of ours than what you grew up in. So glad we did this!

I was here May 1st. One of the most amazing experiences of me life, it felt like coming home for the first time. We spoke of life, love, God, and the corruption of man, the pursuit of knowledge and mastering oneself. Yes ganja is a part of their lives, however it is not the focus. With so many stereotypes that surround these beautiful people, one can only understand them by being among them. To all me new friends, King Toto etc. One love me brothers, I continue to pray for all of you and your families. You are the example of peace, kindness, and responsibility to our earth that we all need in this world. Rasta. Me come back to the mountain as soon I can. Peace and love, yeah mon. Chris

I’ve called and was told to email when ready to book. I’ve tried emailing about 4 times every two weeks hoping someone would finally respond so I can plan ahead and book this experience for my trip. Its clear as day this company isn’t in need of business and lack any form of customer support. If you are traveling from overseas don’t risk it on a company not dependable enough to respond to emails.
