FunToursJamica - A day exploring the Island with Fun Tours Jamaica. Owen and Jody took us up the road through the fern gully, around the town of Ochio Rios, and a jerk chicken/pork lunch at a local spot. The highlight was a trip to Blue Hole to jump off the rocks into beautiful, natural blue lagoon pools.

Blue Hole Swimming Trip - Jody did an amazing job as our guide. She was very knowledgeable, friendly, and fun! Ackeem did a good job driving us safely. The guides at the Blue Hole were also super friendly and helpful making sure we all had a good time and were able to successfully enjoy the adventure. We had fun jumping into the water from various heights. Some of us were braver than others, but there was something for all of us to enjoy!

Made us feel like family!!!! - Stenneth Godfrey nd Asania Smith were absolutely fantastic! They took us to a couple local spots and showed us more than they had to for the tour, Ms Asania also stopped and got the whole family some local dessert cuisine which was extremely good! They also rescued me when I got motion sickness and let me sit in the front of the van, I'd definitely recommend them for everyone and royal Caribbean cruises should really think about teaming up with them!

Blue Hole was pristine and a great way to learn more about Jamaica - Our guide, Owen, was very energetic and informative. We learned a lot about Jamaican history and culture, stopped for good views, photos, and a fantastic lunch. The Blue Hole was magical. We did rope swings, swam in the bright blue water, ledge jumps, and hung out with fun people. Highly recommend this tour and a huge thanks to our wonderful driver, Owen!

Not worth you're time! - We recently did the Blue Hole Falls excursion while visiting Jamaica, and unfortunately, it was not the experience we had hoped for. The majority of the tour—about 3 to 4 hours total—was spent on the bus driving to and from the excursion point. When we finally arrived at Blue Hole Falls, the actual time we had there was very rushed, maybe 30 to 45 minutes at most.
On the way, we stopped at a convenience store where we were told we needed to purchase water shoes. These turned out to be unnecessary, as our guides and several other visitors at the falls were hiking barefoot or in flip-flops. It felt unfair to be pressured into buying $50–$60 water shoes that were cheaply made and ultimately not required for the hike.
Once at the falls, the area itself was disappointing. We passed one of the water holes that was full of trash, which really took away from the natural beauty of the place. It seemed like the site isn’t being properly maintained by the organization that manages it. Because of that, I didn’t even feel comfortable getting into the water.
Overall, I wouldn’t recommend this particular excursion. The only highlight of the day was our phenomenal driver and tour guide, who were both friendly, knowledgeable, and made the long drive as enjoyable as possible. They truly went above and beyond despite the shortcomings of the excursion itself.

Blue hole worth it….Ocho Rios not so much - Blue hole was awesome but the ocho rios tour is a pass. We drove for hours only to have 30 min at the blue hole and 30 min at lunch. Lunch and blue hole were great but nothing to see on the ocho tour. If going to the blue hole you definitely need to be able to climb some stairs that are not great stairs…sometimes just climbing up rocks. If not in great shape or health, maybe pass. But the water was gorgeous just wish we had more time there. Definitely need water shoes or tennis shoes that you don’t mind getting wet. You cannot go barefoot and they will rip you off to sell you some water shoes.
