Taste of Jamaica Food Tour fra Ocho Rios

Excellent tour with Lascelles. He is funny and extremely knowledgeable about all the different plants and their uses. We learnt a lot and laughed a lot too. The food was amazing! Definitely recommend to anyone visiting the St Ann area.

Not worth the money, boring Said that on sundays everything was mostly closed so why make Sunday available to book. Guy was nice but still not worth the amount of money we paid

Our tour guide was very informative and friendly. It was overall a great experience. Our 5 year old son was also part of the tour and he enjoyed it just as much.

Water and lunch were not provided. The experience consistent of riding around St. Ann and St. Mary. This was the worst tour experience because it did not match the description.

Our driver was amazing. He vibed with us really well and even stop and got us beef Patties, jerk chicken and coconuts. Yum! felt very safe and very informative.

This has been one of the best excursions I have ever booked. Kenneth has been amazing and really made the experience personal. He made sure to stop at all of the local spots which allowed us to see the real side of Jamaica. Definitely recommend when in Ohio Rios!

Our tour with Cool Daine was amazing! We started the tour off with a stop at a fruit stand where we enjoyed coconut water and sugar cane. We also loved our drive through fern gully and a neighboring parish. Our tour guide was patient and a great time! Would recommend this tour to couples and families of all ages!

This was positively the worst tour I have ever done. The guide was an hour late and blamed cruise traffic. We were off the cruise so he should have allowed for extra traffic. But that was ok we didn’t want that to ruin our day. Then he drove us to some statue that took an hour round trip to see. The statue was some local hero and the guide couldn’t tell us why he was a hero. We then sat in the same traffic going back to town. Then the guide stopped and ran into the meat pie store while we waited in the car and tossed us the bag of hot greasy deep fried pies to us to eat in the car. We then drove through a tropical road to see some old guy sitting on the side of the road selling spices on a small table. Could not understand a word he said. We asked our driver if we could skip the next stop and just try the jerk chicken. It was dry and had no jerk flavor at all. We then were dropped back at cruise port. There was no fun interesting info about the island or anything we were seeing. We spent the day in the car and in traffic. The food was nothing exciting. And this was expensive. Horrible waste of a day and money. I would gives negative stars if I could.

The ride through the scenic greenery was beautiful. Our driver/host Joel was very welcoming and friendly. I highly recommend him and the tour. He gave us an informative narrative of the St Ann and St Mary parishes. I’m mobility impaired, so it was nice that I didn’t have to do too much walking. (I’m certain more walking about is offered, for more able bodied tourists.) Lunch was great and we took an extra stop for a wee bit of shopping too!

If you’re looking for an authentic tour that will give you an opportunity to view different local areas in Ocho Rios, taste various fruits indigenous to Jamaica, and have some great local food for lunch then this is the tour for you. My wife and I would definitely recommend this experience. To our surprise, or maybe I need to do a better job at reading a fine print, this ended up being a private tour, which was great for her and I. Our driver, the Jamaican Mr. T, was absolutely amazing. He was very courteous, personable, engaging, and had great knowledge of the area which made for a great experience. He gets a 10 out of 5 rating! The entire experience was only four hours, which gave us plenty of time to enjoy the beach and pool back at our resort for the balance of the day. Definitely give this a shot!
