If your family enjoys outdoor... - <p>If your family enjoys outdoor adventures, like ours, this is a great excursion. There were 7 in our 2 family group youngest was 18. We were collected at the cruise terminal by Lindsey in a very comfortable, air-conditioned van that we were grateful for. Lindsey answered our many questions about Jamaica on our drive to the Blue Hole. Very informative. The only unfortunate part of this excursion was the long drive to Ocho Rios where the Blue Hole and Secret Falls were located approximately 2 hours. Our cruise ship, Carnival Breeze, was docked in Montego Bay. Had we been at one of the other two ports this wouldn't have been an issue. We had an amazing time at the Blue Hole. A Blue Hole guide navigated us up the falls, and to the jumps, and took pictures of us allowing us to purchase on disk during our hour and a half while we were there. Because we were with a cruise ship the time was closely watched, to the point that we were able to move up in some of the lines. After leaving the Ocho Rios area we stopped along the way for Jerk Chicken and a bit of relaxed shopping. It was a long drive to the excursion but one we will not soon forget.</p>

WOW. What a great day! Travelling... - <p>WOW. What a great day! Travelling with 2 children 10 and 7 and they had a wonderful time. From jumping off rocks, swinging from a rope and scaling waterfalls, this trip was well worth it. The guides were went above expectations and I would highly recommend it. The only downside was the long drive out, but would I do it again? Absolutely!</p>

He never steered us wrong. The Blue Hole and Secret Falls were breathtakingly beautiful. This excursion is definitely for the adventurous people out there. Lindsay told us to buy water shoes, and it was well worth it. We recommend you do the same to protect your feet. WE left all of our belongings in the car at his suggestion and again, wouldn't do it any other way. Our guide took pictures of us. Our only regret was that there was a guy taking his own pictures and selling a disc and he gets you in the beginning. Though the pictures were nice, we wouldn't have spent the money since our guide took pictures and videos on our phone of the entire thing for us. Demar was very talented in not getting our phone wet while climbing and swimming. He was very kind and offered a hand so I wouldn't fall when I was climbing. Scotchies was a great experience with great food and Lindsay took us to a great shop where we were able to sample rums and buy items at a discounted deal. Thank you for one of the best times of our life!</p>

There are several areas where you can jump/dive in the water and a couple of rope swings. There is even a "lovers cave" behind a waterfall where you can swin in. I highly recommend this tour!</p>

The shopping was at a large shop ideal for tourists but not near anything else maybe its done for security and we had plenty of time here<br/>
Overall good value for money</p>
