five star all the way! - One of the best experiences in Jamaica!! despite the long bus ride it was fantastic. It is a must if you want to see a real part of the island. The journey takes you up the mountain on a very narrow and un-even road … what a ride … awesome guides… awesome food….awesome views…

Fantastic Time! - I did the HIKE and BIKE tour that they now offer and it was fantastic! You go through several bustling communities on the way to the "mountain". The driver was fun and informative! The Brunch and Lunch spot was in a great location. I really can't think of what would have made the trip better. The Hike, Bike, and Lagoon ending were all exhilarating! Know Before You Go: 1. This is 2 hours each way from Boscobel and 2.5 hours from Ocho Rios. If the shuttle from the airport was too much for you than this will not be the excursion for you. I would Not recommend for Motion Sickness sufferers! 2. The hike can be pretty strenuous at times. The tour operator should be more informative about that. No issues on my end but a few people struggled. The hike is uphill and you traverse about 2000 feet higher in elevation than you start from. 3. While it is true that you really do not do any pedaling on the bike ride, you will be riding the coaster break the entire time and it is easy to get up to pretty high speeds. Nobody had any issues, but if you haven't been on a bike for a few years, it could be more intense than you are expecting. 4. Make sure you bring something to swim in. You do not want to miss the refreshing waterfall and lagoon at the end!

Do it, book it, you won’t regret it! - My husband and I had an absolute blast! The drive to and from Blue Mountain is a long one full of winding roads and rough terrain. I did get nauseated during the ride because our driver did drive pretty fast, but I appreciated getting to the mountain quicker. The bike ride was amazing and filled with adrenaline as you go down the mountain on rough and ragged terrain. If you want to go fast and not be hindered by slow riders, I recommend waiting until the very end of the line (ahead of the back security rider) and leave a long distance between you and the front riders. My husband and I did that and we were able to fly down the mountain dodging the numerous potholes and loose gravel. It was a blast. We saw a lot of kind locals and enjoyed a plethora of friendly goats along the way! You get a tasty brunch with eggs, steamed cabbage slaw (which was new to me, but heavenly and flavorful with the eggs and toast), and don’t get me started on the beignets (fresh, crispy on the outside/ soft on the inside, and covered with powdered sugar). Let’s not forget why we are here!? The Blue mountain coffee! You get to drink as much as you want and watch a coffee bean harvesting demonstration. It was all refreshing and enlightening. For lunch, they offered a meal of chicken, rice and vegetables. My husband and I being vegetarians thought we would have to sit this one out, but to my excitement, they asked if any of the riders were vegetarian! They provided 3 alternative options; a kingfish meal, steamed veggie meal, or minced veggie meal (which looks like meat). My husband and I chose the kingfish and it was cooked to perfections and the flavor was outstanding! We finished off at a cool and refreshing waterfall and we’re able to sample fruits of different kinds (guava, guinep, bananas, jack fruit, etc.) Definitely worth it. I recommend this excursion to anyone heading to Jamaica!

Best tour of my trip! - My favorite part of my trip to Jamaica! You get to see the real Jamaica while enjoying a nice downhill ride and coffee tour. We also went swimming afterwards.

Wonderful experience - Fantastic experience. The team were friendly entertaining and shared great knowledge about the culture and various plants, herbs etc. Saw the heart of the people their lives the coffee plantations and wonderful scenery. The photographers were hilarious and we bought lots of pics. Thanks guys it was amazing!!!

Jamaican scenery, history and culture all in one. - We had a fabulous day. The team really looked after us: made clear health and safety essentials, guided us and took care of our safety whilst cycling and made us laugh. The photographers were hilarious. I am half Jamaican so am familiar with the scenery but Blue Mountain provided not only stunning views but also living history and true Jamaican culture. Love Jamaica and loved the Blue Mountain.

This is a great value and experience!! - What a well run experience and company! Drive Henri picked us up in Ochi and we was a very professional and funny driver, pointing out various sights along the way. The scenery in the mountains was spectacular with different trees and flowers all around. This tour involves your van driving to a high point on the Blue Mountains then you cycle downhill. The guides Jeremy and Shane were super informative and keep us safe as we traveled ( calling out potholes, rough sections,etc). This is a great way to see the mountains and how coffee is picked and roasted. Go for it!

Not for the Faint Hearted - The tour guides were excellent - H/T to Alfred, who navigated the rough Blue Mountain roads to get us to our biking stop. I would just say that the ride itself is downhill through a lot of neglected roads and tons of potholes, so you really need to have cycling experience. It's fun but I could see someone who has never ridden a cruiser bike having some difficulty - its exciting but a bit frightening. Otherwise this tour really helps you understand the "real" parts of Ocho Rios - lots of food for thought.

Bicycle part and food good , transportation part bad - Pros: food was good, biking down the mountain was beautiful. Kemo our photographer was awesome! Cons: Our tour driver Keith had road rage, granted people were late during pick up and there was a lot of traffic. We booked from our hotel through Jamaica tours, the bus we were picked up in was in terrible condition and needs to be out of commission. A-lot of the bus was falling apart, piece of the a/c vent that was hanging fell and hit my wife on the head leaving a mark for two days. The bikes were in poor condition as the brakes didn’t work well.

Do Not Buy The Pics and Video, BE WARNED . - The scenery was lovely, bikes quiet difficult to stop as you had to pedal backwards to stop. Food very basic rice and dry chicken The most annoying is we bought the pics and video. When 2 days later and 2 emails not responded to I went to the person at the hotel we booked with. She rang them and again promised it would come through on email. We has to hold the bus up taking us to the airport as we were leaving waitingfor them to come through. The pics came but no video despite someone from Go Beyond promising to send it. Take note do not bother with the pics/ video not worth the stress and 40 dollars down. Rip off!!
