A foodie's dream come true! - We decided to add a second tour to our trip (we did the Dunns Tour with this company as well) and went with the Taste Tour with Alrick—it was hands-down one of the best decisions we made! As a foodie, this was everything. We hit four or five stops (I was too busy enjoying myself to keep track), and every single one was amazing. We started with fresh fruit and coconut water straight from the coconut—so refreshing! Breakfast was next, but no pancakes! We had brown stew chicken, and Salt mackerel, yam , potato and pumpkin. Then we went to a Rastafarian food spot and I loved their fresh juices. Then we got patties and coco bread, I got the chicken patty. We also grabbed some banana bread to take back with us, though it didn’t last long once we got back. What made the trip even better was Alrick himself. He was a fun guide, sharing stories about herbs, Jamaican culture, and even what it was like growing up. One of my favorite stories was about how, for Christmas, his family would buy a goat and use every single piece of it—even making goat head soup. Our two tours were the best part of our vacation. I highly recommend this tour if you want to experience Jamaican food and culture and have great company.

Love Jamaican food ❤️ - Whenever we travel we always do some type of food tour. One of our friends recommended Alrick Allen because they did a taste tour with him a few years ago, and they said it was the highlight of their trip. So we didn't hesitate to book a tour with him, which was also our trip's highlight! We are both very open to trying new things and tried everything Alrick gave us! He has a real passion for what he does. We didn't just eat food; he also gave us stories to go along with it, and we learned so much about Jamaican culture when it comes to food. And we were stuffed by the time it was over. Thanks again

Food Tour of Negril - Great tour! Alrick introduced me to the Coco bread Jamaican Patty combo and my life has been changed forever… I flew in right after the hurricane and he still made things happen!

Belly Full - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I can't say enough wonderful things about "Your Jamaican Tour Guide" and our incredible guide, Marc. My son and I had the most amazing and authentic food tour experience ever! From the moment we started our day with breakfast at a rasta restaurant, to sampling some of the best fruits I've ever eaten, every moment was pure delight. We indulged in mouthwatering dishes like curry chicken, jerk pork, and patties—just to name a few. Marc made the experience unforgettable with his humor, fun spirit, and deep knowledge of Jamaican culture. He even took us to a beautiful beach where we enjoyed stunning views of planes coming in. I highly recommend booking a tour with Marc. I will definitely refer my friends and clients anytime they visit the island. Thank you, Marc, for an unforgettable day filled with laughter, delicious food, and beautiful memories! #JamaicanTour #AuthenticExperience #FoodTour #HighlyRecommended

The Best!! - I came on this tour with my family for my 40th Birthday and Mark was AMAZING from start to finish. He was very informative and the places he tooks us had the BEST food and fruit. It was nice hearing from the locals and sharing a piece of their world. I would highly recommend this tour if you come and Mark as the tour guide. 10/10 for sure.

Informative - Our tour guide was Charles, he did such a great job teaching us about the land and Jamaica's culture. He is well informed on the different plants and fruit trees and their purpose. He also gave us some insight on the things he was taught as a child to look out for when it comes to living off the land. Charles was excellent!!! Would recommend hands down.

Great Food Experience with Charles - Charles was a great guide into the wonderful food of Jamaica. We were shocked how much better the food and especially the fruit was outside the resort. From the great conversation to education as well as making sure the trip was comfortable, easily 5 star 🌟 review and a highlight of our trip.

Wish there was more than 3 food tasting options - The baked chicken and mango tasting was the most memorable part. We also enjoyed our hosts. We do wish that there was more food tasting options for the amount of money we paid.
