Family visit to Jamwest - My family and I visited Jamwest while on vacation in Jamaica and it was a breathtaking and exciting experience. The staff were very informative and patient and made sure that everyone within the individual groups were safe and have plenty of fun. 10/10 recommendation this place for a family outing

The most memorable experience - Not only were the activities amazing but the staff was incredible! Our guides went the extra mile to make it the most fun and memorable experience. Special thank you to Metro, our safari guide for really making our adventure sooo fun! I got to cross a few things off my bucket list at JamWest! I will definitely be back!

Best Negril Safari & Horseback Combo Fun Exciting Experience - This experience was so much fun and exciting, the friendly and knowledgable tour guide Kirkland and his colleague did very good with having my girlfriend and I enjoy this excursion experience. We sat on a bull back, feed birds while standing on our arms, pet a snapping turtle back, seen a crocodile and learned alot information about safari life. They are 5 star tour guides 🌟

Horse back riding and Safari - We really enjoyed our horseback riding and Safari. Shine was my guide for the riding and was awesome, he would stop and point out hero’s and plants for me to smell and taste. Shine was awesome and very personable I wish I could remember the other guides name too. Going into the Ocean with the horses was fun and the pictures they took. The Safari with Metro was awesome. We were in the early morning tour which was actually just my husband and I. Metro taught us so much and was a great photographer. He would make sure we got great pictures at every stop. These guides do a great job there. I would recommend it highly.

Disappointed - I am sad to say that I am not pleased with this excursion. It seemed a little hokey. Loooooong ride to and from the place was an absolute beat down. The horseback riding was not at all what I had envisioned. Lots of trash and plastic bottles laying all over the ground by the water. The safari was just sad looking at all the animals in their tiny little cages. Lunch was really good. I had chicken kbobs and rice. Was very tasty! One bright spot in the excursion was the mineral spring bath. I actually did feel more relaxed afterward. Our tour guide for this was Orlando. Awesome guy! Very personable and informative. Another negative is that when we were finished with our tour, they rushed us out the door without letting us view our pics. They pretty much threw business cards at us and said “you can view and order your pics online.” As of two days after our trip, our pics were still not online! Save your money! Do the Dunn’s River Falls and Cool Runnings Catamaran excursion. It was awesome!!!

Terrible avoid... - Do not go terrible cattle market the bus ride was late going and late coming back staff stood around and unhelpful begging for tips show your appreciation is what they say for what ? The cultural tour down the dirt path looking at snakes and tortoise in a discusting tiny cage the box cart that lasted 5 minutes the atv yes was good but got whipped at speed by bushes the food was terrible and drinks over priced then we got told to wait in the heat for 2 hours while a bus came and then left us in it not air conditioned for a further hour till they filled it to the maximum I was so hot I nearly passed out terrible terrible way to get back it's a 2 hour journey and I can't believe for the 400 dollars we spent for 3 activities they then treat you like cattle when they say good bye and staff are just stood with miserable faces like its a job they hate and just show up to to get paid there are plenty other places you can do thes trips AVOID this one

Horrible experience - Bus was late 2 hrs picking up from hotel and they don’t tell you that everyone that is on the bus whether they are doing 1 excursion or 4 that you have to wait until everyone is finished to leave.

Did not get the photos I paid for!! - I never usually write reviews, bad ones at that, but I’m very disappointed. I went to the park on September 7th, paid $20 USD for 2 photos and was told the photos would be emailed to me that same night. The photos have not been sent to me and no one will get back to me. Feels like I’ve been scammed to be honest. Don’t bother purchasing photos, you won’t get them!

Don’t make me review! - By allowing me to view my photos online without having to submit a review. We just wanted to view our horseback riding and swimming photos, however, I could not get past the trip advisor review form to view them and possibly purchase them. The horseback ride met my expectations, but it is almost like a kiddie ride bc guides are with you holding the horses reigns most of the time.

Not the best experience at jamwest due to their staff - Well journey their through Tui was fine however on getting down to the stables for the horse ride to the sea the lady instructor decided to tell a lady from the USA she was not able to ride due to her size- the lovely American lady was mortified at the way she told her directly in front of our group! When the instructor then decided to confront the American lady she was truly aggressive in front of the many children in the group My family were mortified by her behaviour. Some time later the American lady appeared on the beach on her horse. She later told us the manager fired the women on the spot! I think this was a one off occasion but then to top it off your told no cameras and the photographer did not show up much to the guides annoyance and ours! Not the best trip for us and quite rushed !
