Bombastic

My first time in Ocho Rios, and one of the activities was bamboo rafting with Coppa Tours. Our driver was Courtney, he showed up in time and cared for us whole time by making us feeling safe and welcomed. We did an 1h of bamboo rafting with Shadow, while on tour he made sure that we were protected, he kept us entertained and engaged with his sense of humour and free expression. I really enjoyed this experience and look forward to seeing them in the future.

Nice cool quiet flow down the river

The vendors on the end of the river came on strong, they put souvenirs on you forcing tourists to to buy, having overpriced to rip tourist off.

No Ocho Rios without Rafting...

If you are in Jamaica...Ochi to be exact...you MUST experience the Limestone massage in addition to the rafting experience. We had one of the most beautiful day for the activity, and it was relaxing and super beautiful. Service, from pick up to drop off, was "chef kiss".
