2nd times the charm - This is my 2nd time touring with Richie and it solidified why I came back. With transport from our resort to the excursions, he made sure that we had a great experience from beginning to end. He was very friendly and knowledgeable about what Jamaica has to offer and I will be making a habit to tour with him again!

Authentic Jamaica tours - Richie is an amazing tour guide. My husband and our family had a great time exploring Jamaica with him. We went river rafting, restaurants and the market for fruits and souvenirs. We all felt very safe with Richie as our guide. Will definitely be using his services again when we come back to Jamaica.

Multiple Customized Trips - On my first trip to Jamaica, I stayed at Luxury Bahia Principle. I booked an excursion at the hotel, but they canceled because they didn't have enough participants. Someone from the staff recommended Richardo, and I could not be happier. For five days he took us to different places and showed us real Jamaica. Because Richie was able to get us local deals, it offset driving costs. We didn't pay more than the hotel excursion but we had first class service. Richie is the best driver, tour guide, and organizer. The weather wasn't the best so he helped us to schedule different trips around the rain. We went to Bob Marley's childhood home, we rode horses in the Caribbean Sea in Ocho Rios, swam in the luminous lagoon, jump to the Blue Hole and did river tubing too. I always wanted to do the clear kayak photoshoot and Richie made it happened. He took us to Mahogany Beach. I got VIP treatment and beautiful pictures and on top of that we did bamboo rafting and jet ski. The icing on the cake was the limestone massage. He also took us to a Marijuana nursery that usually doesn't take visitors. The excursions were great but Richie showed us real Jamaica. He explained customs, and history and taught us local expression. I couldn't recommend him and A & R Tours Jamaica more.

Ritchie and ARTOURSJAMAICA - Long overdue, but still warranted. Vacation trip to Jamaica, (another Gem in this our Caribbean Islands) we called up and agency booking a trip for river rafting on that day. We decided to go with artoursjamaica based on price and flexibility, what we didn’t know was that we were booking Ritchie (a down-to-earth Jamaican). Ritchie turned up like the others did on time and pleasantly attired. His vehicle was spotless and a welcoming snack was available (like most of the other’s). Ritchie took us safely to our river rafting that we truly enjoyed, and after completing this activity, that’s when the Jamaican magic happened. Ritchie with his entertaining island information and gossip, deemed he’s not just a tour guide but a darn best cook (my family is into food), so I had to put Ritchie to the test. Left river rafting somewhere in Drax Hall, and headed to Ritchie and his chief friend restaurant in Runaway Bay, I was hungry. Having had Scotchies (jerk chicken & festival) the day before, I tormented Ritchie jokingly that nothing would top that, Ritchie’s reply was simply blah blah blah, wait you’ll see. We got there and Richie donned his cooking apron, and along with his friend took to the kitchen. We were served up Red Stripe beer from the bar (of course we are in Jamaica, right!), and waited for my locally caught red snapper paired with local ground provision and my wife’s grill lobster also locally caught with same. Long story made short, man oh man was I wrong. Scotchies was good, this food was magical. I ate everything down to the last flesh on my fish head and some of the bone weren’t recognizable, I’ll be delicate and just say my wife said it was the best lobster she’d ever eaten. Ritchie mentioned (in the purest Jamaican dialect) he ent ever seen any people eat down the food like that lol, he then bought us a few rounds of beers to show his appreciation, he didn’t have too, his food was more than enough. We did our goodbyes to all the locals that had engaged with us, and Ritchie took us back to our hotel in Ocho Rios. Jamaica is by far the best Caribbean island I’ve visited, my wife concurs, and we both come from Caribbean islands. But that tour day out, that ended with Ritchie’s cooking and company, was my bestest ever Caribbean experience. You go Jamaica, look for artoursjamaica, ask for Ritchie!

Simply the best chauffeur and event planner in Jamacia !!! - Richardo Mendis is simply the best, what a driver, what a human being. Richardo is a chauffeur first and foremost and he is incredible at his job. I’ve never been driven by a better driver, he is comfortable on the road as well as mountain terrain, commanding pit holes as if they weren’t even there. He will get you to your destination fast and safe. He has WiFi in his car, which is a 7 seater and extremely comfortable. Beyond that, Richardo is interpersonal, funny and an interesting person. He will make effort to not only give you a tour of Jamaica as you pass through the different districts, but will also make funny and interesting conversation, telling you about Jamaica, his experiences and current affairs, not to mention, he’s a football fanatic ! Above and beyond that, he is an exceptional human being! Not only does he bring you to the best destinations, he arranges activities at a cheap rate with locals, with a better experience and value for money. At one point, we ran out of currency, so he paid for us at his own suggestion, out of his own pocket, and we paid him back at the hotel. He is an honest, caring individual but also gets the job done with swagger, confidence and competence ! Myles Bossman
