Greatest Jamaican experience, 10 out of 10 - We absolutely enjoyed our time in Ocho Rios thanks to SSJ Tours, especially Jay and Jason. From our airport transfers to our excursions, both were very professional and knowledgeable. They shared the cultural history as we rode through different parishes. Our excursions and tours were a 10 out of 10 and were customized to our desire. We will definitely be returning to Jamaica and willl be using SSJ Tours again.

Relaxing reset - If you are looking for a relaxing yet exciting and beautiful sail on a bamboo raft this is it! This excursion comes with transportation , big plus, our driver Jason was very personable and got us to our destination safely. The rafting comes with a beautiful view, opportunities to take pictures on the raft and they offer the limestone massage, left my legs feeling so smooth and soft. Our driver back Jamoy was a blast he had my friends and I laughing on our way back to the hotel. I completely recommend this experience to everyone visiting Jamaica !

Perfect Excursion For The First Day in Ocho! - We had an amazing time! The driver picked us up from our Airbnb and kept us entertained during the drive. The rafting itself was incredible! Our guide was funny and let us control the playlist. He gave us a brief history of Jamaica and didn't pressure us to stop at any of the vendors along the river unless we asked. Easily a 10/10 excursion.

Fun on a river raft - Wear flip flops or something because you will get wet feet. Our guide told interesting stories and jokes. We have done a similar trip before on the Maryha Brae. Either are fun.

Good and bad - I was not told to bring small USD cash. It is memorable in that the captains of the bamboo rafts were excellent. The vendors were not. A photographer tried to charge us $80.00 for pictures, and one guy wanted $10.00 for a drinkable coconut. They are 3-5$ elsewhere.

Worst bamboo raft ride in Jamaica. - This was an awful experience. It took about a half hour just to get the raft untangled from all the other rafts that were grounded. Then once free we went about another block and that was as far as we could go because according to our rafter guy some other company owned the rest of the river and they couldn't go any further. He then pulled us back up the river to let us off. The "river" was pretty dry so it was a lot of work. Very painful experience. $100 for a terrible block and a half raft ride. And he expected us to tip him too. Along with the $200 taxi ride. Total rip off. We went to the Martha Brae bamboo raft ride the next day, and that was very nice.

Terrible tourist trap, activity consisted of 1h drive, 15 mins rafting and 15 mins on a beach - Wow, so disappointing. You know that feeling when you’ve been ripped off…if that’s what you’re looking for, book this activity with SSJ Tours. We were looking for a family activity for six of us in age range 2-70 years old. Got picked up at the hotel by 9.15am and drove for 30 mins to Rio Nuevo where the rafting started. We rafted for 10 mins, around 500 meters, during which we were offered to buy stuff. Then arrived at the beach where we were offered to buy more stuff, we rafted for another 5 minutes back to the place where we started and were again offered to buy stuff. Then the 30 minute drive back to the hotel. The activity time consisted of 1 hour driving, 15 mins rafting and 15 min stop on the beach all during which people were trying to flog us things. This was terrible!
