The Real Jamaica - Hosan was the perfect tour guide. Easy to contact direct and replied to queries promptly. We were picked up on time in a lovely clean, safe and comfortable vehicle. Hosan was very knowledgeable having grown up in Montego Bay. He is very friendly, great fun, and will take you to all the best places ensuring you are happy and feel safe the whole time. We would definitely book him again and have no hesitation in recommending his services.

True guide to Jamaica and it's history and culture. e - Absolutely brilliant! Learned a lot more about the culture of Jamaica taken to the "real"Jamaica. You choose where to go or leave it to your guide. Ladies can ask for a female driver.

Book Percy with confidence! - Percy was a wonderful host, and provided us with a wonderful day in Belize City. He was our personal guide the whole day, even at the zoo. Clean, comfortable and safe vehicle. Great ambassador for Belize City!

Would do it again - Glen was out tour guide and he was outstanding. He took us around Montego Bay, took us to a local place to eat and ended with a beautiful beach stop. We couldn't be happier or more thankful for the time he put in to show us the bad and good about Jamaica.

Drive at your own risk - Roads are in terrible condition making driving unsafe. Traffic in the city reminds me of movies in India - not wide enough for 2 cars, potholes big enough to damage cars. Hosan our driver was skilled and took us to the historic town center and explained how Jamaica gained its independence. We had the best jerk chicken and saw how the poor lived vs the rich. Went where tour buses could not go.

Disappointing - Although our driver was nice we paid an additional amount for port pickup and that's not where we were picked up.It was near a main road and security walked us there. I wanted to see a few historical places but felt I was lead in other directions. When asking about going to a market she called a friend who met us there and of course directed us to her store. Don't go to the market unless you want to be harassed. It was awful. By the time all the just driving through neighborhoods was over I couldn't wait to get out of the car.i almost fell asleep actually.it seemed she had a tour path that she follows and I didn't see any of the sites I was truly interested in.It was 218.00 for 2 of us because I was told the port pick up was a different price than hotel pick up..although we DID NOT get port pick up..I didn't care for it . Wasn't able to see what I wanted..didn't even stop to see beach.
