An AMAZING time with Mama G! - This tour was amazing from pickup to drop off. Georgia aka “Mama G “ was our tour guide. She picked us up promptly at 8am and was a pleasure to meet. She provided us with history of Jamaica along the way and made sure she followed the best route to get us to our destinations safely. Mama G made us feel safe as if we were with our very own family! She was kind and made sure we knew exactly where to go and what to expect during our tours. Anytime we re-visit Jamaica she will definitely be our tour guide! We LOVE MAMA G!

Great Tour Experience with Finesse!! - We completed two separate tours with Das on different days, the foodie tour and YS Falls, with Black River Safari and Appleton Estates. He was a great tour guide. He provided us the full experience of Jamaican culture and food. He went above and beyond our expectations. We tried a variety of mangos, traditional dishes like curry chicken, curry crab, brown stewed chicken, rice and peas, boiled yam, bread fruit, boiled/fried dumpling and Jamaican desserts. Our visit to YS Falls was delightful. The falls were beautiful and pristine. Remember to bring bug spray because there are a lot of mosquitoes. Our visit to Appleton Estates was full of fun facts, like how fermentation is accomplished, the aging process of rum, the establishment of the estate in 1749, and over 2000 varieties of sugar cane. We completed our tour with a visit to Black River Safari, where Captain Cornell took us down river to meet some of its longtime residents, crocodiles, Victoria, Philip, Tom and Jerry just to name a few. We also interacted with smaller crocodiles in different stages of development. Das took pictures and shared them with us. You will not be disappointed if you reserve a private or group tour with Das. We will definitely book him again when we return to Jamaica.

AMAZING locations and even more amazing guide! - Super nice and knowledgeable about plenty of topics about the island. We loved hearing his experiences and places that he loved to go and enjoy. Made the experience for us much more enjoyable with his knowledge and willingness to share it. Both the locations were AMAZING!! He made sure we had plenty of time and didn’t feel rushed. I would happily recommend anyone to him and would definitely go on another tour with him again.

Dip first with Rum to finish - Absolutely amazing tour. Highly recommended. YS Falls is a must. Appleton Rum estate even better. BUT... Georgia "Mama G" as our tour guide was brilliant. Picked us up and pointed out all the sights on our long drive over to the South of the Island. Through her we saw more of the real Jamaica than we expected. She made a brilliant day even more amazing. Thank you xx

Unforgettable experience with Das! - This was all around an amazing and highly recommended experience. Our group loved touring YS Falls and Appleton, but what really made our day so great was our guide, Das, who was a true professional. Not only did he make us feel totally safe the whole way (even on some windy mountain roads), he was incredibly knowledgeable about Jamaican history, politics, cuisine, culture, and more. The hours driving through the beautiful countryside flew by, and we loved stopping for the Jamaican fruits, chips, and sodas he showed us along the way. Also, getting breakfast patties before heading into the mountains is a must- they are delicious!

Amazing Tour and Better Tour Guide - My cousin and me are on a girls trip, and I found this Waterfall and Rum tour on Viator. Great price and exactly what I wanted so I booked it. Das was exactly on time and called me, because I was in the elevator at 8am. I was grateful that he called because another tour my cousin booked did not! We rushed out and he was waiting in an immaculate air conditioned van. Extremely friendly and professional. I didn’t realize the Falls and Appleton were so far away. He made the trip as comfortable as possible telling us the history of many places along the way. He was incredibly friendly and kind by taking us every step of the way up to the YS Falls. Then he took pictures of my cousin and me at the falls so we didn’t have to think about it. He, then, took us to a place so we could have lunch before the rum tour (smart man!). The scenery was incredible and his driving capable and steady. He also came with us on most of our tour of the Appleton Estate, and continued to bless us with amazing pictures, pointing out local flora (such as akee fruit and papaya trees). Just an incredible gem of a person, considerate, thoughtful, knowledgeable, friendly and kind. Would highly recommend.

Grateful for the wonderful driver on our trip - We were so happy, with this booking, Mama G was our driver, she was on time and very skilled at navigating the curvy Mountain roads. She made an extra stop to make sure I got my favorite rum at a fair price.

Book Momma G for your private tour destination to Appleton Estate and YS Falls. - OMG, Momma G is the best!!!!! She was very knowledgeable, pointed out places of interest and historical locations while traveling to our destination. She also made a couple of stops for us on the way back. Definitely book her for the best experience. It also helps that she knows the workers at Appleton who also adore her. God bless her to be around on our next stay in Montego Bay.
