Take the tour - This tour takes the whole day, considering the distance between the 3 destinations. But it's definitely worth it! The waterfalls are breathtaking, the Appleton Estate tour is informative, and the lunch served at the estate is delicious - I wish I could have had seconds. The private tour of the Black River was stunning, and I even had the chance to hold a baby crocodile! I highly recommend. The staff with VIP tours Jamaica Shoshana and Jack were accommodating, comedic and knowledge.

Worth Booking - My wife and I booked this package through Chukka during our trip to Montego Bay & we were not disappointed. We were glad we booked it with a tour company as the roads are small & windy. The drive from Montego Bay is a couple of hours. Yet our driver was amazing & provided a lot of wonderful information. This is a fantastic way to see the sights & country outside of the city. We were definitely not disappointed. We enjoyed learning about the Black River, seeing the YZ Falls & learning about how to make rum at Appleton Estates. At the falls take tip money as the lifeguards will assist you walking around the falls & take your pictures. The tour guide at the Black was very knowledgeable & let us touch us a crocodile. Finally, the Appleton Estate Tour was very informative & interactive. We would definitely recommend & we were not disappointed.

Great experience, highly recommended - Patrick was fantastic…. Spending 8 hours driving the roads of Jamaica is not an easy thing but he did so amazingly well. Great guide, car was clean (and cool thank god!). Would highly recommend him and would use him again

A breathe of fresh air! - For my first time in Jamaica I had such a great time at this tour! The driver was amazing, I got to see the sights and embrace the culture. I highly recommend this anyone traveling to Jamaica.

A very full day experiencing this beautiful island - Everything was awesome. The Appleton Estate tour was fantastic…entertaining and informative, and the 3 rums was tasted were outstanding. YS falls: a beautiful spring-fed series of falls with natural pools to swim in, rope swings, a guide who took a ton of great pictures, and great jerk chicken and fries. What else do you need? The Black River tour was a beautiful ride through the mangroves with Egrets, Herons, and 5 or 6 good-sized crocodiles. Our captain was informative and hilarious. Our Driver/guide, Jermaine, was outstanding. He told us about the history of the island and life on the island. He made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. We will absolutely book with him again when we come back to this beautiful island.

Do it!! - We had amazing tour guides. Got to see a lot in one day. First we did the Black River safari. Beautiful scenery and learned about the animals in the area. Next we did YS Falls. A relaxing place tucked away from the super touristy areas. We had lunch there. Great food!! Final stop was Appleton. Very informative tour with a nice tasting. If you are looking to really see different parts on the island away from the beaten path, I recommend.

Great experience, saw a lot - Loved the rum tasting and the sugar cane juice was yummy (had to work for it was fun). Held a crocodile, saw many in the river too, they come when called. Ys was well guided and very pretty! The guide took pictures of us and we could rope swing there. So lots of good memories. Only downside is with everything in Jamaica for tours, a bit expensive. But must say, this was my favorite on our Jamaica trip.

Appleton estate was great... - Appleton estate was great and so was the safari, the falls was closed due to weather, but the pelican bay was ok.

A great way to see the island - Booked this tour during an Apple Vacation. It was a great way to see the island outside of the resort. The Black River Private Tour was very interesting and it is good to know they are trying to preserve this wetland. They are restocking the alligators and they do come up close and personnel to the boat. The thing that I really didn't like was that the tour operator did ask for a tip at the end of the ride. It was the only time during the whole vacation there that someone actually suggested a tip. I didn't give him as much as I would have because of that. YS Falls is really very pretty. We got to climb up on the rocks and you could go in the water at the base of the falls if you wanted. The water was to cold for that. You could zipline if you wanted too. I did not. The Appleton Estate tour was really the best. Our tour guide was fabulous. You got to see how the rum was made back in the day and at present. You got to taste sugar cane, which I had never tasted and the molasses byproduct from the distillation process. Of course there was the rum tasting and after the tour that was my husband's favorite drink at the resort. The estate was very pretty and well kept. The fees were included in our tour price so I can't speak about that. I truly enjoyed seeing this place. If you have the time I would recommend going to see this estate. The falls are really cool and I would go see this attraction again if it was included with something else. The falls are in a park and the grounds are very well tended. I probably would not take the river tour again, it was ok but not that interesting. These 3 places took us over quite a bit of the island. It was very interesting to see how the people there live. Our tour guide told us a lot about life there and I really enjoyed hearing about that. Many areas are really very poor and it gives you a different perspective about things. Taking these tours was a nice way to get off the resort safely. If you can, I suggest taking a tour just to see the island in a different way.

No quite what we expected… - I was a little bit disappointed as the TripAdvisor trip was not exactly what we paid…YS falls was closed, as was Appleton at the time that we booked. Trip advisor and the places we booked to see could have done a better job communicating with us about the last minute closures. This commute was 2.5 hours both ways from our hotel and took a lot of our time. we did have an amazing driver Patrick who made sure that we had a great time dispute 2 of the three locations belong closed: we did tour other provinces, ate great local food, and check pelican bar which was great. If you ever need a driver throughout trip advisor as for Patrick he is the best!!!
