City tour, shopping and river bamboo rafting and

We had an amazing experience on the Montego Bay City Tour, Shopping & Bamboo Rafting excursion. The tour was well organized, and our guide was friendly, professional, and knowledgeable about the local culture and attractions. The bamboo rafting was relaxing and scenic, and we enjoyed having time to shop for authentic Jamaican souvenirs. Transportation was comfortable, and everything ran smoothly from start to finish. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Montego Bay who wants to experience the beauty and culture of Jamaica.

Experience with KandyK Tours

I had an amazing experience with KandyK Tours and tour guide, Kimone Watson, during my trip to Jamaica. From the very beginning, Kimone took the time to truly understand what I wanted out of the trip, the type of experiences I was looking for, and the overall vibe I wanted while visiting the island. She provided a detailed itinerary with estimated costs upfront, including the cost of her services, which I found to be very fair and reasonable for the level of professionalism and care she delivered. Everything was well organized, smooth, and stress-free. The highlight of the trip was definitely the excursion to Negril aboard the catamaran, ending at the infamous Rick’s Cafe. The entire experience was unforgettable — great music, beautiful scenery, amazing energy, and breathtaking views along the coast. Kimone made the trip feel personalized rather than “touristy,” and her knowledge, hospitality, and attention to detail truly elevated the entire experience. I highly recommend KandyK Tours to anyone visiting Jamaica and looking for a memorable, authentic, and well-coordinated experience.

Make the most of your trips when you book with Kandy

Kandy was recommended to us by a friend who already booked with her before. Best decision ever. She was absolutely amazing. She made the experience 100 times better. She is a 10/10, she was kind and she made us feel comfortable. Can’t wait for my next trip to see her again!

Amazing

We spent near to a week. We had an amazing experience with our tour guide! She was fun, outgoing, and made the entire trip unforgettable. We visited several great spots including Rick’s Cafe and Dunn’s River Falls, and everything was well organized and enjoyable. She even introduced us to a special drink at a café after Dunn’s River and took us to a restaurant and a couple of clubs, which really added to the experience. Her energy and personality made the trip so much better. I love how affordable everything was and she didn't go out her way to be greedy and over charge us. I love how affordable this trip was. Highly recommend her as a tour guide!
