Bamboo Rafting with Owen 10/10 - One of THE best excursions we did. We had nothing reserved coming to Jamaica. When I reached out to Owen, he took it upon himself to make the reservations for us so we could have a smooth and enjoyable trip. Owen was very nice and informative and told us all what we should and shouldn’t do in Jamaica. Owen was on time picking us up and dropping us off. His prices are amazing and he will take you anywhere you want to go. I felt safe with Owen the entire trip and I highly recommend him to anyone who is looking to book a trip to Jamaica, you won’t be disappointed. I will be booking Owen my next time coming back to Jamaica!

10/10 Experience! - If you book with Owen, you won’t be disappointed! He was very punctual, he took us where we needed to go for our excursions and anywhere else we were interested in visiting. We went to Chukka, Dunn River Falls, and did Bamboo rafting and everything was amazing! Owen helped my group feel safe on our trip and helped us create all the best memories! The complimentary mangoes were a great surprise as well!

Enjoyable Trip - We were originally deciding between a couple of companies to book this trip, but chose this one as they were very efficient at replying to my messages and answering my queries. They were also very accomodating when we enquired about changing the date we had originally booked only a couple of days before we were due to go! Word of warning, be careful as some companies advertise this trip but when you check the details you're only paying for the transfers there and not the actual rafting! This company included everything. Our drivers name was Owen and he was amazing, very attentive during our excursion and extremely helpful afterwards, in locating shops for my daughter to purchase certain items she required. He even paid for them in the local currency (we only had US$) to ensure we got the best price, then allowed us to reimburse him in $. We really appreciated his kind assistance! I would definitely book with this company again :))

Nice and Different! For the good memories! - Took us about 45-1h each way. The road can get a little bumpy. The driver was nice and explained some of the history and extra info while on the way. Most people were kind and friendly. Our Captain Fisher was nice too. The ride down the river + foot massage + up river took about 1h. We thought it was enough to enjoy. We really enjoyed doing this activity. We did it around 10am, not crowded at all, but by the time we returned, there were a lot of people getting ready for the rides. So, I would recommend doing in the early AM.
