An Amazing Time In Ocho Rios
Ray was our tour guide and was amazing for our party of 9. We chose the Blue Hole and Bamboo Rafting package in Ocho Rios, Jamaica. Ray is very knowledgeable about the area, was on time for drop offs and pick ups and he took us to get authentic Jamaican food. It was an amazing day!!! We look forward to booking again in the near future and will be sending all referrals to book on my link for his tours!

Great tour - highly recommended
Nice tour from start to finish. Great way to spend the day in beautiful Ocho Rios! Ray is an amazing guide and driver… always made sure the guests had fun, were informed and were safe! Glad we chose Omar tours! Will do so again! If you’re looking - these are the best guys to go with!

5 stars is honestly not enough
5 stars is honestly not enough. We had a big group (which can be hectic) but Ray handled everything like a pro. He was patient, super organized and made the whole experience smooth and stress free from pickup to drop-off. What really stood out was how thoughtful he was with the older members in our group. He made sure they were comfortable and taken care of the entire time. That level of attention didn’t go unnoticed. Ray and Omar Tours have earned a customer for life. 10 out of 10, I highly recommend!

The best experience ever!
I decided to celebrate my 50th birthday in Jamaica where I was born and where I have my roots. To say Omar Tours and Ray in particular was a God-send is an understatement. The company is run by two brothers and I briefly met Omar who was very sweet, but Ray is the face of the company and who I primarily dealt with. From the beginning, even before we got to Jamaica, Ray not only helped me in organizing excursions and tours for our large group— we did Kingston tour and Blue Hole Bamboo rafting, but he also helped me execute events around my birthday by connecting me to local vendors for my party, helping me plan and organize a private yatch cruise and just treating me and my family like VIP from beginning to end even before stepping foot on Jamaican soil. I’ve don’t Bamboo rafting in JA before but the site Ray intentionally took us to have the best experience was so much nicer than our prior rafting experience. We were transported safely wherever we went and every driver was excellent— Ray, Omar, Frank were just the best and made sure we had an outstanding experience. They were informative, kind, funny and just good people. Ray became like a brother to me and I cannot thank him and Omar tours enough for making my 50th birthday unforgettable. I highly highly recommend Omar Tour for your tour and travel needs in the Ochi Rios area and beyond. I will definitely use them again. ♥️

Everyone in Jamacia was so kind and wonderful!
Bamboo Rafting was wonderful. We had Capt Obie, he was the best of the best! It was a blast hanging out with him. We made a new friend and would recommend anyone considering doing an experience in Jamacia that you book with Omar Tours. Request Peat to drive you. See all the guys at the Blue Hole and wrap up with a relaxing raft ride with my favorite Caption. Couldn't ask for better care!
