What an incredible and amazing time in Jamaica!! Thank you Sean! - The memories we were able to make as a family were priceless! We were so blessed to have an Amazing tour guide and driver. His name was Sean. Sean was so kind and shared Lot's of fun facts about Jamaica. He took us safely to each of our destinations and made sure we understood how to be safe and how not to be taken advantage of as there are some in the area that would do so. Sean even surprised us with decorating up the van for my daughters birthday and for our anniversary. He really helped personalize our experience in Jamaica! We all had such a wonderful time there! Thank you Sean!

BEST FAMILY EXPERIENCE EVER!! And Marvyn and Shawn are the best!!! - If you want to experience Jamaica - book a tour through Marvyn's. From the minute I emailed them, they were super helpful and ready to make our trip the best! We got off the cruise ship and they were ready and waiting for us with a large, clean, van for our group of 9 (16-69), even with our last minute booking, (we weren't sure we would be able to stop with Hurricane Helene threatening). Our driver, Sean, was the greatest guy!! He took us to Dunn's River Falls (which was AMAZING), and we were some of the first people there. He helped us understand how to be careful around the people selling souvenirs and he took care of us. Our guide at Dunn's River was awesome too. I lost my watch and they were able to dive and find it for me. We were celebrating our anniversary and our daughter's birthday and while we were hiking the falls, Marvyn personally came and with Sean they decorated the van for us. It was awesome!! The drive up to Blue Hole and our experience there was AWESOME! If you like to jump, dive, or flip into beautiful clear water, then this is the place. Sean knew a lot about the area and he took good care of us! He also suggested we stop at Linda's for the best jerk chicken, oxtail, and rice, and even called ahead to make sure there was enough food for us. It was honestly the best trip ever! We feel like Sean is part of our family now and we would love to visit again. We will definitely book through Marvyn's, and will request Sean to take care of us again!

Awesome, even in the rain. - At first, we were sadden by the fact that it was pouring rain when we arrived at Dunns River, but it was a blessing in disguise. We were able to have a small group of 4 guided by Maurice. He was excellent. He took our photos and videos. There weren't any other people in the background of them. As we were heading out for our next tour, bus loads of people were arriving. My suggestion to you is don't cancel your tour if it's raining. It will be worth it. Our driver Kenneth was awesome. He was very helpful and pointed out things while we were driving. He also made some good suggestions and made sure we were taken care of. I will request Kenneth for all future bookings with this company. The company was also very responsive to all questions.

Book Marvyn’s Tropical Tours! Ask for Joel - Marvyns tropical tours was amazing and professional. Our driver Joel was excellent. He made sure we were safe even after we landed back in the states, took us to local spots and was extremely knowledgeable. I can tell he genuinely cared. All his recommendations were A1. I think my 4 year old son liked him the most. He said Joel was his best friend. 10/10 would recommend.

Family Reunion Jamaica - We easily located Marvyn and started our private bus tour. We were a group on 12 with kids and elderly. He was so helpful, so patient, and so kind. We had a wonderful day cliff jumping and climbing the falls!

A great day in Jamaica - Marvyn himself picked up our family of 7 from the cruise port in Ocho Rios. We drove first to Dunn's River Falls and were first in line! Marvyn gave us tips about how to enjoy the Falls which were helpful. Once we were finished at the Falls he drove us to the Blue Hole. Once again he gave us useful advice on how to have the best experience at the Falls.
Afterwards, we were going to go back to the ship, but Marvyn suggested we get a tour of the island and drove us to a lookout point where we had a great view of Jamaica. He then suggested we try some Jamaican jerk chicken and brought us to an amazing restaurant. I think it was called Jerk Village.
Marvyn was very entertaining and informative. It was a fun day. All my kids really enjoyed it. Also, Marvyn seems to know everyone on the island. Many, many people came up to say hello to him during our excursion. He is clearly well-respected on the island.
I would recommend Marvyn's Tours to anyone looking to have a great experience in Jamaica.

Dunn's River and Blue Hole FTW! - Having already done the Food Tour with Marvyn, I wanted to also see Dunn's River and the Blue Hole. Sandals also did a Dunn's River tour, with a Catamaran, but Blue Hole was not included. I am glad I went with Marvyn though. Not only did I save money and I saw the Blue Hole in addition, I found out the Catamaran tour from the resort was not worth it to say the least...not enough food for everyone and overcrowded. Again, I had such a great experience with Marvyn previously that I booked with him for a 2nd time. We were able to do Dunn's River and the Blue Hole the same day and both were quite amazing. Although our driver Sean did not partake, we were in great hands with the local guides that we were assigned at each site. Another great experience provided by Marvyn and his team. My wife and I both had a great time in Jamaica thanks to them.

BEST Tour/Transportation Company! - Working with Marvyn's Paradise was a dream.
Our drivers were on time each and every day we worked with them. During our stay, our excursions included Dunn's River, Blue Hole, Blue Lagoon, Boston, and a couple others. Sean, Mr. T. and our other drivers were all amazing.
Thanks so much and we'll see you again next year!

Dunn Falls - Awesome, worth the time to go. You do not neeca guide, go on your own! Souviner folks are a problem, tell them NO!

Highly Recommend - I am a travel agent so I am particular about who I refer my clients too. Not only do I trust Marvyn with my clients I trust him with my family. I've been using his services for almost 9 years. His drivers have been with him just as long as I've known him. This tells you not only is he awesome to work with but he is also awesome to work for. That shows honesty and integrity. My family and I used his services 2 weeks ago and we had a blast.
