Great tour with two of the best guides - Our tour to the Appleton Estates was superb mainly due to our tour guides, Jermaine and Henry. We were very fortunate to have a driver Jermaine not only superb driver, but excellent tour guide but also his finishing student who will now be an official driver Henry so we were very fortunate to have two great guides. The first stop was the Appleton Estates were after signing in we’re welcomed with our choice of two rum drinks. Both were yummy, since I was doing this tour with my sister we were able to try both. They even gave me the recipe. We then meet our guide for the rum tour and we learned so much from our guide Raisa. She is very knowledgeable and friendly. We had a great time comparing the process of making wine, which we are very, very familiar with,and the process of making rum. A tour very worthwhile. The second part of our tour was a visit to pelican Island again very friendly people. It was OK could’ve stayed more at Appleton. What made our tour so special was the knowledge and the friendliness of our guides so willing to answer any and all questions we had letting us into their lives and a little bit of their customs and familiesso thank you so much for Jermaine and Henry. They are the best.

The best way to see and learn about Jamica - A great way to see and learn about Jamica. We were lucky to have two guides, a driver Jeremiey, and a guide and future driver Henry. Our first stop was the Appleton that’s it’s just the Appleton Estates or is it Appleton Estates. Where we learned all about the the process of making rum, but also the history of making rum at the Appleton Estates. Our guide there was Reisia she was great. We had fun comparing the difference between making wine, which we are very familiar with and how they make rum. We then went to pelican Island. Which is not an island but a shack on Pilings in the ocean. Unusual but fun. But the best part of the two were our two guides. They were absolutely fantastic very knowledgeable and learned so much about the history and the people of Jamaica. Thank you Jeremy and Henry you guys are the best.

Great tour - Me & my sister booked this very last minute due to another tour guide cancelling & it was the best decision. Darein was an amazing tour host with exceptional driving through the narrow roads of Jamaica. The rum tour was as expected, great throughout. We were unable to attend pelican bar as it was closed due to the heavy rain which was expected. Overall it was a great experience & well worth it.

The rum experience was interesting but I would have liked to taste more to make it more complete. - Jermain, is a good, cheerful and is a talkative and caring Jamaican. He told us a lot about what we will see along the way. And that was very interesting. Jermain was very helpful in finding your right ATM. Jermain showed us a bit of extra Jamaica which we really enjoyed. We had a good meal and some drinks, we had a great time. We had a drink and a swim at the pelican bar, unfortunately I stepped into a sea urchin. But thanks to Jermain's good care, the spines were removed from my foot. Ultimately we were brought safely back to our accommodation. Jermain is a really nice Jamaican

Personal Tour of Dunns Falls and Blue Hole - Wonderful tour! Spent a fantastic day at Dunns Falls and Blue Hole with Nickoy our guide! We had such friendly, personal service. Nickoy answered all of our questions about his country. He even accompanied us at Blue Hole. He stopped for local jerk chicken at our request. Just catered to our every whim!
