Great Jamaican experience - I recently spent time at Chukka Adventures at Good Hope. To say that it was amazing would be an understatement. From the very beginning, my family, friends and I were greeted by a warm and courteous staff member, who very quickly and efficiently checked us in and showed us to our beautifully reserved Cabana. Our party was a group of 17 and the staff made not only feel welcomed, but special. Our water tubing guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and full of energy—he brought not only Jamaica’s rich culture and history to life, but also specifically the history of Good Hope. The tubing down the Martha Brae was breathtaking and relaxing. We also had the opportunity to choose from rafting, zip lining, buggy 2 seater rides as well as the rum tasting. There was just the mixture of adventure and something for everyone. The small children in our party enjoyed the pool and the older kids and those young at heart, also had a great time going down the slide, surrounded by the lush Jamaican greenery. The team also provided delicious Jamaican cuisine. Every moment felt authentic and vibrant. I can’t recommend this tour enough—it’s the perfect way to experience the real heart of Jamaica! Special shout out to Sameer, the Location Manager and his entire team, also our master tubing guide Thatchy, our courteous butler Shaquille. The entire team was really fantastic. Well done Chukka Adventures at Good Hope!

Great time! - This is a great place for a day trip. So many options. The rafting was perfect and fun. It comes with a complementary limestone massage. Ahhhhh. It was nice, slow and easy. Our guide made it fun and informative. He even sang to me for my birthday. ReNiel was an excellent guide! Afterwards we had a few hours to on the property - food was delish! The kids got to jump off rocks into the falls. A great day was had by all! Highly recommend!

Rafting with Romario - Romario was exceptional. He provided great vibes and conversation. Also his riddles were a nice touch at the end of the raft tour.

It was cool - The experience was nice until our Captain Romario wanted a tip from us. He said him and his friend would like an appreciation. We informed him our money was back at the locker but honestly our ride wasn’t worth giving him a tip. He got back on the bus and followed us back to where we started hunting me down for a tip. It was annoying and gave that he was stalking us. He also said no to give the tip to the boss because he was the boss there. Very greedy and unprofessional he should not be on those rafts!
