Adventure on blue mountain
A Splendid,wonderful,& relaxing first day on this beautiful island
Our tour operator Omar was not intrusive, he gave us enough room to appreciate the scenery, while at the same time kept us well informed with the local area and goings on.
Omar even through in some general knowledge, and we didn’t have to call a friend or use google to get the correct answers!

Blue Mountain Sightseeing experience
Our tour guide Omar, was excellent. He has very good customer service skills, liaising with us right from when we booked via viator to ensure clarity on what to expect. He is very accommodating and willing to go the extra mile to ensure we enjoyed the trip and were comfortable.
We found him to be very knowledgeable and passionate about Jamaica and nature. He was also very helpful to other tourist who were not even on his tour to ensure they were safe driving down the mountain.
Were happy to book another tour with Island Tours in Jamaica with him and highly recommend this company for tours.
