Appleton Estate Rum and Ys Falls Tour
Description
Our day tour goes through the mountainous terrain of Jamaica's South coast. The *Appleton Estate* home of one of the oldest commercially produced *Rums* in the world, is one of the highlights of a classic Jamaica Island tour. Our unique pan-fried peppered shrimp spot is also located in a small community called Middle Quarters. A short drive from Middle Quarters, nestled in lush vegetation, in the countryside is the YS Falls. The crystal clear waters as well as the naturally formed waterfalls is perfect for cooling down from the tropical heat. A wide variety of indeginous fruits, as well as delectable Jamaican cuisines is available for purchase. Your tastebuds are sure come alive in flavours!

Itinerary
Holland Bamboo is a two and half mile stretch of road, covered in Bamboo. The Bamboo was planted in the eithteenth century to protect planters from the heat while walking to and from Lacova and nearby communities. This is a fabulous site for taking pictures as well as indulging in various indigenous fruits sold by the locals.
The Y.S. Falls is one of the top rated Natural waterfalls in Jamaica's scenic destination. This gem has no less than *SEVEN* waterfalls cascading into natural swimming pools, amid lush gardens. A ten minute ride on a jitney pulled by a tractor, along the fields is also on offer. In addition, there is also zip lining activity that overlooks the luscious vegetation and the falls. A small fee of $20us required for entry, but I guarantee that you will not want to leave!

Leon and Nigel showed us so much about the country and how everything is being rebuilt in recovery from the destruction of the hurricane on our way to Appleton Estate Rim Tour. Their stories and personal experiences gave every neighborhood on the way a life of its own.

This was our third time planning a trip with Nigel, and he continues to be our secret weapon for creating memorable, engaging family experiences. He goes above and beyond, putting in the effort to research, plan, and prepare every detail. I was initially concerned about organizing excursions for a multi-generational family, but Nigel connected effortlessly with every age group, ensuring each of us found something truly special during our time in Jamaica.
Thank you so much for your continued trust and kind words! It’s always a pleasure planning trips for your family, and I’m thrilled that each experience has been memorable for every generation. I’m passionate about making sure everyone enjoys Jamaica in their own unique way, and I’m glad we could create something special for each of you. Looking forward to our next adventure together!
Nigel is the absolute best tour guide. We found him on Trip Advisor a few years ago, and it has been a game changer. Now we don't even plan our trips anymore, we just tell Nigel the general mood we're in (beach, sightseeing, activity etc) and he arranges everything. The Appleton Rum tour with him was wonderful. We can't wait to travel to Jamaica again next year, for our next adventure with the best tour guide there.
Thank you so much for the wonderful feedback! I’m truly honored to be your go-to guide and to help bring your Jamaican adventures to life. It’s always a pleasure crafting the perfect itinerary for you based on the vibe you’re after, and I’m glad the Appleton Rum tour was another highlight. Looking forward to welcoming you back next year for more incredible memories together!
I had an amazing time on this tour, thanks to our fantastic guide, Nigel! He did a great job getting us to the Appleton Estate before the crowds, so it truly felt like a private experience. The visit to the Appleton Estate was fascinating—we got to see the rum-making process from cane to glass and, of course, taste some delicious samples. I highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Jamaica!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled to hear you had an amazing time and that Nigel helped make your visit to the Appleton Estate special. It’s great that you enjoyed the rum-making process and the tastings! We truly appreciate your recommendation and look forward to welcoming you back to Jamaica in the future!
This was a very enjoyable day out. The journey through the mountains to get to both attractions is long and scenic but worth it for the experience. The YS falls are naturally stunning with the option of swimming pools and zip line and the rum estate tour was interesting and fun.
Thank you for choosing Mighten’s Tours we appreciate your support and your review it means a lot to our small business God bless.
Nigel picked us up and took us to the beautiful Y’s falls. We went swimming, rope swinging in the water and after seen the Appleton estate with a tour through there. Nigel was a great driver and tour guide. You have to bring cash to get into falls and the estate so make sure you bring enough. Make sure you confirm the time you are getting picked up at the day before, reach out to Nigel if you haven’t heard anything before going to bed
Thank you for choosing Mighten’s Tours where we only tour in style we are delighted to serve you see you next time. One love.
If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. The YS falls are amazing, more than we expected and the distillery was as interesting as entertaining. Our driver Jermaine’s service was A1+. Flawless vehicle, right on time, great conversation and most of all, helpful and understanding. He was an excellent driver in the winding roads to our destinations. Well mannered, polite and gentle are the least adjective I can use to describe his service. 200% recommended
Thank you for your support and your review God bless see you next time one love walk good.
Had a wonderful time with our tour guy Willy. He not only drove us to our destination but shared his island with us along the way. This tour was well worth the price if you are wanting to learn about the island that you are visiting. We stopped along the way and experienced Jamaican coconuts, fish and bammy. We got some great pictures along the way. As a travel agent, I will be sharing this tour group with my clients from AAA.
Thanks you for your support and your kind feedback one love from the Mighten’S Tours family to you and yours.
Nigel was extraordinary! We went on a tour to Appleton estate and on the way he took us to juicy patties where we had some of the best I’ve ever tasted. On the way he allowed us to take pictures of the scenery and even had us try some pepper shrimp from a spot that he recommended! After we went to pelicans bar we got to swim in the ocean have a few drinks and he captured some the most memorable moments while we were there. And finally he all had dinner at birds view restaurant. Overall amazing experience!! If you’re in Jamaica you make sure to link Nigel for the best tour experience!
Thank you for your support and your kind words continue to be the person you are to each other one love.
