Kemar was our driver and he was great. Felt super safe with him. Never felt rushed by him and he seemed to enjoy our carpool karaoke lol. I would highly recommend this excursion. The bamboo rafting was fun, margaritaville was good (get the jerk wings, thank me later).
Customer service was amazing,patient and polite. Never had to look for him. He kept us safe. KAMAR was the best. Any tour I will be requesting him
It was amazing. Our driver made sure we had a great time rafting we ate and also had time to shop. What an unforgettable experience.
This was a great experience. From the tour guide to the limestone massage it was what me and my fiance needed. I enjoyed every minute of it. If you traveling to Montego Bay you must do it.
Kemar was our transporter and was absolutely the best! Showed me and my boyfriend around and answered all questions and helped us with the strip. The rafting experience was amazing as well - the staff workers were so nice, massage was great. Overall - 10/10 experience!!
My husband and I booked the *Margaritaville Hip Strip and Great River Rafting Private Tour* in Montego Bay, and it was such a wonderful experience! From the start, pickup was smooth and on time—even though our pickup spot had to be changed. Just a quick tip: the Carnival port isn’t listed as a pickup option, but if you reach out to them via WhatsApp, they will happily arrange it, and it works perfectly. Our driver and guide, **Kemar**, was fantastic. He was extremely knowledgeable, reassuring, and attentive throughout the entire day. He constantly made sure we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves, and even handled the return drop-off seamlessly. Honestly, I’d rate Kemar himself a **10/10**—he truly made the experience special. The rafting was absolutely beautiful and so relaxing, with a fun and entertaining guide who kept us laughing while also letting us soak in the peaceful surroundings. The only reason I rated the experience a **9/10** instead of a full 10 is because I wished the rafting part had lasted a little longer—it was that relaxing! Overall, I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Montego Bay. If you get Kemar as your guide, you’re in for an amazing experience!

This experience was amazing. The person that took us on our rafting. He was very friendly would definitely do it again and our driver was excellent. Listen to good music on the way there and back has drive-in was very good. Got us there in one piece. Definitely could do this experience again.
We're glad that you enjoyed your service! We hope to see you again soon.
I felt skeptical at first but It was a great experience. Our driver was very friendly and cool. Toto our boat captain showed us a good time. It was great music, great vibes. Nice scenery. If you are looking for a vibe this is it.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a feedback. We hope to see you again soon!
This was a great experience that my husband and I went on. If you enjoy a very relaxing tour then this is the one for you. We enjoyed the tour down the river learning facts about how they make the boats, the stones in the water, and ending with the respectful massage. Our guide was great at pointing out facts and taking many pictures for us. Also our driver Kemar was great at getting us around the mountain and navigating through traffic. It felt like our own personal tour with just the two of us. The food at Margaritaville was great and a nice way to end the day.
