Awesome day in Jamaica - Excellent! Try this trip! Tina (guide) & Tracy (van driver) & Big Ben (tube & raft guide) were all awesome! After a short drive (approx. 30 min) and a history lesson along the way, we arrived at the river. Used the facilities, got fitted w/ a life jacket & helmet. Big Ben (Lagrick) hooked us all together on our innertubes and we floated on down. Stopped and switched tubes for a raft. Most of us were given a paddle, but mostly it was Big Ben & my husband doing the heavy paddling to the shore. After leaving that beach, went to another beach and had a nice lunch and some free rum. Beach was a little rocky so keep water shoes on. Had a few little shops outside of beach. Then we finished our trip at a souvenir store w/ Tina getting a discount for us. All in all 5 stars. Would take this trip again!

Fun day from Montego Bay cruise port. - It's a good trip. It's a bit of a ride through lots of traffic but they get you there and back safely. The river tubing was fun. The beach club is nice. Pack water shoes. Lunch was good and the drinks were tasty. Overall it was a nice day.

Davion made our trip ! - Opting for this excursion via our cruise line proved to be an excellent choice, largely due to Davion's exceptional guidance. His commitment to ensuring our enjoyment was evident, and his vibrant demeanor significantly enhanced the experience. The level of hospitality Davion provided was so remarkable that it alone would entice us to return for a repeat visit. We were thoroughly impressed by his service, and the company should indeed take pride in having him as a representative of their brand.

River tubing better than beach - We chose this due to the relatively quick drive time which unfortunately doubled due to having to wait for people at the second pick up site- a hotel. The ride was in a comfortable van. I wish our guide, Tee, would’ve provided more info about Jamaica culture & history, but she answered questions. River tubing was amazing. The route had been shortened due to damage from hurricane Melissa but still very enjoyable. Bamboo Beach was underwhelming. Pretty small water area with nothing to see under water and entrance very rocky- wear water shoes. We could only sit in a section with chairs, no loungers. Food was good- jerk chicken, rice, hush puppy, cole slaw & a really delicious dessert. Two different rum drinks & non alcoholic options were included. Tee demonstrated a rum shot that we all got to consume. The group from the hotel were dropped off first and we noticed that none of them tipped, so we tipped the guides/driver double. Due to traffic, we were worried that we wouldn’t make it back to our ship on time, but we did, with time to spare for a little shopping on our way back. I recommend this fun excursion for the balance of adventure & relaxation.

Relaxing day - Had a lovely day out, the river tubing was fun more like a lazy river really but found that doing this ate into our beach time as the other people on the trip not doing tubing went straight to the beach, we got less than a couple of hours on the beach and would have liked to have been there for longer as was a lovely setting. Not crowded and staff kept delivering rum punches and lovely food. Would def recommend but just wished it was a longer day x

Fun Events Lacked Organization! - Our excursion lacked direction from the start! We did not have specific directions when we got off the ship so we wandered around trying to find someone that could help. We contacted the company and they gave us a meeting point. We were met by a teenage girl who put us on a bus with a driver who wasn’t sure where we were to go and he was detained for parking inside the cruise area. We waited while he got the matter worked out. He then received 10 calls from the Bamboo Beach Club concerning his progress along the route. He was finally instructed to stop at a bus stop to pick up another teenage(appeared to be) girl that helped him find the location. We made it to the river rafting and beach which was a good experience. When I am in a foreign place I would like to feel that I am with people who know exactly what is going on. We were given our food and drink but I would not say that we were well taken care of. They were not gracious hosts at all.
