Great Time - Best time while visiting Blue Hole and Konoko Falls. Our guide was Daron Brown and was so accommodating. I’m 65 years old and had the time of my life jumping in the pools along with my wife. I would highly recommend. He also stopped at a place to do some great shopping. Five Stars!😊👍❤️

Enchanting Beauty, Beautiful People - Gorgeous falls and pools and blue hole! Cold air comfy transportation. Botanical garden and museum are included at Konoko, a few caged animals and birds to see up close. Didn't see the croc. The climb was fairly easy with grippy water shoes . Actually every morning a pathway is scrubbed to make it non slip and of course they are right there offering a hand or two even taking a video for us, carrying my stuff ( I brought too much stuff, keep it simple with just your phone on a lanyard or wristlet). There’s a lot of hand holding ! Uncrowded on a Thursday mid day. …the place is stunning ! I only wish we could have stayed the day and that they had cleaner lifejackets for us. At one of the falls we saw a little trash here and there , like plastic bottles. We did see a bar but wasn’t sure it was open. Picture perfect surreal and tranquil yet exciting! Wonderful, attentive staff at all times. Most Excellent day! TIP: bring lots of tip cash because there are several gracious employees working to make this perfect for us! We must’ve tipped 6 different guides along the way for this one excursion! Unforgettable day!

Wonderful Family Trip - Just for context, I traveled with my family (4 adults and 1 child) and we are all strong swimmers in moderate physical shape. We had an amazing time! Our driver, Mr. Buchanan, was very kind and accommodating to us. We felt in safe hands with him the entire trip!
Kinoko Falls was absolutely gorgeous. I had never visited Dunns River and was worried my little one (age 5) wouldn't be able to do the trek, so we opted for here instead. We had a lovely tour guide, Monique, that educated us on the different plants in the garden. The climb up the falls was exhilarating! We joined a larger group of people when we did the climb. There were 2 gentleman there to assist the entire time (***I do recommend good non-slip water shoes because the rocks can be very slippery***). There were a couple animals and even opportunities to take pictures with them.
Blue Hole was breathtaking! From the water to the natural landscape, it was such a surreal experience. We had another guide, Junior, that guided us through the water to different activities. He was excellent with making sure we were able to get a chance to engage in diving and the "Tarzan jump" because there were many locals there as well. He was also very vigilant of my little one, often holding her hand when terrain became tricky to navigate. I will say, the water was very cold (I am from Miami so it may not be too bad for many) but the weather was hot and humid so it was very refreshing.
Overall, I highly recommend this experience. We greatly appreciate all the individuals that played a part in exceeding our expectations and we are looking to return to JA soon!

A time was had - Mr. Wayne was professional, and our guides were great as well. My daughter and I felt safe with AMario at Blue Hole. We enjoyed some coconut water, sugar cane, and jack fruit. Konoko falls contained beautifully tropical flowers, birds, turtles, and other animals. There's a trampoline and playground on the premises. The dining was destroyed, unfortunately, by the previous storm.

Do this tour! - We had the best driver Wayne who really guided us, taught us new things and really gave a tour while he was driving. He showed us around, made an extra stop at the ATM for us, and just absolutely took care of us. We loved him! It was the small extra things like he stopped the van to pull off a leaf from a tree he drove by explaining you can chew and it makes your mouth numb and, they use it for the dentist. We tried it and it worked! Just absolutely brought a personal touch to it. Our guides at both the blue hold and Konoko falls were great! This was our favorite stop on the trip! So fun!

Awesome Experience! - We visited Ocho Rios last week on a cruise & did the Blue Hole tour. Our driver was Darren and he was fabulous! Picked us up on time, the van had AC, he was so nice & took care of us for the entire day (even dropping us off at a restaurant for lunch & the beach at the end of the trip). He made sure that we knew where to go & left his number with the locals in case we needed him to pick us up early. He made the day amazing!
Now, the Blue Hole was FABULOUS! I climbed Dunn’s River Falls many years ago & felt that it was a little dangerous. We had a 7 year old with us this time so I wanted something a little less strenuous. The people at the Blue Hole were very nice & they had an organized system. They took excellent care of my kiddo, even picking him up at times when he was having trouble crossing in areas. They start you off with small jumps & slowly work your way up to the 15 foot ledge. By the time that we made it to the big falls, my kiddo had worked up his courage & took the big plunge!! The photos were so awesome that we had to get them. They were sent to me the same day! Highly recommend this excursion!!!

Excellent Tour! Loved our day in Jamaica! - This was amazing. A highlight of our vacation! Wayne was an excellent host and driver, and he felt like family at the end of our tour. The Blue Hole went way beyond expectations. Because we were there so early, we had the whole place to ourselves. I thought it was just a place to swim, but it's a beautiful network of waterfalls and swimming holes. Scenery is beautiful and it's so much fun. A few things to note: this tour involves a lot of climbing and exertion. You need to be in good shape and a strong swimmer. Also bring cash for tips for your guide. Our guide Junior was a treasure and took wonderful care of us across the rock formations. Next, we ventured to Konoko Falls. We first had a tour of the botanical gardens and met some animals. Ziggy the iguana was our favorite! Then our first guide (another cash tip!) handed us off to our lifeguard guide Wayan, who was another excellent find (and another cash tip!). Again, we had the entire waterfall to ourselves and had an amazing time. This is another tour where you need to be in great shape. And water shoes are a must. After the climb, Wayne took us to an amazing jerk restaurant. Then brought us to a shopping area and rum tasting. Overall an excellent value, great customer service, and a perfect cruise ship excursion. Recommend this tour highly!

Blue hole was a fun adventure with our great guide Sam - Easy pick up from cruise port. Unfortunately due to rain the blue hole was murky and not blue but our guide was amazing! He took us to several jumping spots and took care of us as we crossed some rough waters. He adjusted the jump heights based on each person and the photographer got some great shots. Our family had a great time there.
The other portion of the tour was okay. It’s basically a lot of birds and gardens. The falls are pretty but we would have been fine without that stop. Although my husband enjoyed the jerk chicken that was being cooked by some locals in the parking lot. At the end we were taken to Andy’s - souvenirs, liquor and jewelry before being dropped off at the port.
Blue hole portion is worth it!!
