Additional Information

Climb aboard your robust raft, guided by your experienced captain, and set sail for an invigorating cruise along the famous 3-mile long Martha Brae River. This thrilling trip, lasting approximately 75-90 minutes, will be on a lengthy bamboo raft, designed to accommodate two passengers, propelled by a proficient guide. Initially, the river’s upper portion gives momentum to the raft before settling into a more leisurely pace further downstream. There, you could halt at ‘Tarzan’s Corner’ for a playful swing and a soothing dip in a serene pool.

Experience the astonishing spectacle of the Mystic Lagoon. As evening falls, you’ll be greeted by your host and served a welcome drink. The lagoon sparkles with countless benign microorganisms that light up when they are agitated. An uncanny illumination will arise from the boat’s stern, surrounded by radiant light from the ripples. Enjoy soaking and glowing in the lagoon, or simply dip a limb to relax. Your Captain will elaborate on this magnificent phenomenon! Moreover, you will delight in a Fire Show, Limbo Dancing, and traditional Jamaican dinner.

We had a wonderful ride... - We had a wonderful ride down the Martha Brae, they were running a little behind and we had to wait. But then we got a wonderfully talented Captain, Reynoldo. He was very knowledgeable, funny and great to listen to. He even reversed the raft to pick a flower I admired. Highly recommended tour. THANK YOU!

Wonderful - This experience was amazing. Our driver Jemelia was above expectations. She was friendly and helpful. This was by far my favorite excursion my whole trip. I will book with her again next time in Jamaica.

Rafting & luminous lagoon - The Martha Brae river rafting was just great - special thank you to Ronaldo AKA Rasta Pasta for being such a friendly and informative guide ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The lagoon experience was an amazing natural wonder The only down side was the 3 hour wait in between the two excursions We weren’t made aware so didn’t bring much money with us or anything to do There was a bar and some music towards the later part of the wait

Great rafting experience - Martha Brae rafting was amazing. Very peaceful, 45-50 min with very friendly and warm raft captains. I’d have given 5 starts to this part of the tour. It’s the timing of the tour which is a big issue. From Montego Bay, we were done with the rafting and we’re dropped at the place for luminous lagoon at 4 pm whereas that tour starts only at 7 pm - we had NOTHING TO DO FOR FULL 3 hrs and that place is deserted enough to not try and want around so you’re basically holed at a pier/restaurant. This tour should have a start time of 3:30 pm instead of 1:30 pm. The luminous lagoon itself was good (4 on 5). The Caribbean world tour company that runs this tour are very friendly and professional but they also weren’t aware of the weird timings (they thought I had made the time selections myself) - it seems there’s a disconnect between trip advisor and them on this specific tour.
