This was an amazing excursion. Our guides Dave and Tye were great and made sure we were safe and having a great time. The mineral mud bath was awesome. It made your skin soo soft and smooth. The obstacle (I call it that)course was dope.

This is an excellent combination to do the electrifying Blue Hole plus Secret Falls and Dunn's River Falls on the same day with a lunch stop at Scotchies Outdoor Garden Restaurant (Lunch own expense) for less than half of what it would cost to do them separately.

Nine Miles, is the birth place of our late great reggae superstar, Bob Marley and is also his final resting place. The trip takes you through various villages where you can learn quite a lot about rural Jamaica- the real Jamaica. The guide takes you through the black gates, up a steep but beautifully paved walkway and up to Bob's childhood home and his resting place. By the way, the guides will also ensure you about the Rastafarian religion.

What ever you do, DO NOT BOOK with this company. It’s fraud! The “owner” is doing business under “Martha Brae’s name. Basically you will be paying for the car ride alone there then u will have to pay an additional $77 for the actual rafting. The guy is super rude and disrespectful. He ruined our entire trip to Jamaica! He charges us $160 just for a ride less than 30 mins away. Not to mention we took a different ride which was 1.5 hours long for less than that price. You have been warned! DO NOT BOOK this under any circumstances! We were scammed and I would hate for anyone else to go through that. False Advertisement!

Travel in a private vehicle from Falmouth through the town and its neighboring community for a glimpse at Jamaica beyond the resorts. You pass the country’s oldest hydroelectric plant en route to the Blue Hole, where a private guide shows you how best to enjoy this natural attraction. Swim in different pools of bright blue water surrounded by foliage, and get a natural massage from cascading waterfalls. Take a break from swimming to explore a jungle cave, and then jump right back in using a Tarzan-style rope swing. Hop back in your private vehicle and take a short sightseeing tour of Ocho Rios on the return drive to your hotel

Our tour guide Mikey was excellent. Our driver Courtney and our tour specialist Samantha was very informative and she was very funny. The activities we did were tubing, horseback riding, and exploring blue hole. It was an amazing and thrill seeking experience. The coordinators were very understanding to me about losing my luggage and helped me to have the best experience. It was so amazing!

We have always and will continue to use Drs Jamaica transportation tours. Rashaun was and always will be our guy for getting from one place to the next. He knows the island like the back back of his hand and will get you to your destination on time. These guys also give great advice on cool places to go check out while on vaca. So if you can’t think of anything to do just ask they will hook you up. Trust me when i say this, you will never use any other transportation service after using these guys. If you are looking for reliable look no further.
