Blue Mountain Coffee and Sightseeing Tour

Not A Good One. The Vehicle we travelled in was not as clean as to be expected, the AC Didn't Work and the planned lunch situation, mysteriously changed and there were no options except to opt out.

First, none of what follows reflects on our guide - and intrepid driver - Cheryl, who was great. Plus, the scenery was absolutely magnificent, so no complaints at all there. BUT this trip is massively overpriced and rather poorly executed in places. The 'coffee tasting' was being served one cup of coffee while a guide, clearly much more interested in his phone and his private business ventures, gabled through his script. We had to press for the 'complimentary lunch' at a roadside chicken shack, not realising that a stop at Jucci Patties at 11.00 a.m. was supposed be just that! Also, just a minor point, but the walk to the waterfall (which, to be honest, is rather underwhelming) does not require stout shoes, but proper walking boots. Overall, some marvellous moments with regards to scenery, but at the price we were charged and for what we got, something of a rip-off.

We took part in the part bicycle tour to the blue mountain coffee spot in the mountains, and highly recommend folks check this out if you can! Bike riding was simple and chill, no experience needed. Coffee and food on tour was our favorite from the whole trip

Very fun day with a personal guide, great scenery to enjoy all around in the mountains and great coffee to sample. Would do it again the next time we’re in Jamaica.

We did this as part of a combined Kingston Town & Country through AmStar, stopping at the Bob Marley Museum first. That's a different review. Also, we were in Secrets Montego Bay - the ride from here is about 3 hours each way so be ready for that. The Blue Mountain coffee tour was an experience getting there. Very narrow roads climbing to ~2700 feet above sea level or so. But there's more. You hike up the mountain to an overlook past growing coffee as well as banana and papaya trees. The views are incredible. However, it's a tough hike, and if you're not in shape this is not for you. It's about 1/4 to 1/2 mile and around 300-400 feet more in elevation. We got our exercise for the day! The most annoying part was that the guide took off with those who were in good shape and able to keep up. My wife had to take her time especially going back, and there were two ladies who were struggling ascending and descending. The guide could have slowed down a bit to ensure their safety. At the end, you hike back to the estate for information on how coffee originated and is grown there at Blue Mountain and have the opportunity to buy some. Finally, you head back into Kingston for lunch (we ate at Usain Bolt's Tracks & Records, really good food honestly).

Going up into the mountains to see the coffee growing,and having a cup of the beautiful coffee and a slice of rum cake . The drive to into the hills was a really nice experience, the guides was patient and waited for us to get to the top if you feel it was too much you did not have to go to the top. But it was good to see and know all about the coffee and different coffee blend.

Cheryl was a wonderful driver and tour guide. She went above and beyond in making our trip safe and interesting. I would highly recommend this tour.

We had a good tour guide was very informative. Very good. We had lots of fun with great sights very informative

This turned out to be one of my favorite traveling experience. Cheryl was amazing. The tour felt more of roadtrip with a friend. She was knowledgeable about jamaican history and culture. She was a very good and safe driver. She was thoughtful and stopped at a view point on the side of a road for me to take pictures. The tour itself was great as well. It was so much fun with cheryl, it felt the trip ended fast. Would recommend 100%. Also, she was a great photographer!

Junior was our tour guide and he was very informative. Very good. Some of my group wasn't going to walk and look at the berries but after listening to Junior, they went and had a great time. Our driver was Cheryl and she was very good. Pleasant , informative and helpful.
