One of the most exhilarating ways to experience the jungles of Jamaica is on the Canopy Tour. This 3 hour tour of the treetops is via a zipline through the trees, a staggering 14 metres above the forest floor. Your first stop is over the Great River, and eight more traverses follow, interspersed with some fantastic guided nature walks too.

Ocho Rios is one of the most popular destinations in Jamaica. Famed for its shopping facilities as well as the breathtaking Dunns River waterfall and dolphin swimming off the coast, you can take a tour of the area with the Dunns River Falls and Ocho Rios Shopping Tour.

Jamaica is synonymous with reggae, and you can learn all about the history of this Jamaican music as well as the life of its greatest legend Bob Marley with the Jamaican Spirit of Reggae Bob Marley Experience Tour. See Nine Mile where he grew up, visit the Bob Marley Museum, learn about his Rastafarian roots, and pay a visit to his final resting place.

The Jamaica ATV Off Road Adventure Tour is an exciting way to make your way around the island. You will visit a working plantation and sample its exotic fruits and juices en route to your final stop, a drive along the beautiful Sandy Beach, where a bowl of delicious Jamaican jerk chicken awaits.

Hop on board your own private cruise along the coast from Negril, stopping off to snorkel and swim around coral reefs, en route to the famous Ricks Cafe where you can dive from cliffs into the warm Caribbean Sea. On the way back enjoy the beautiful sunset as you sip delicious rum punch.

If you love horse riding then the Heritage Beach Horse Ride allows you to explore the beauty of the Seville Great House and Heritage Park, as well as Heritage Beach, on horseback. Your informative guides will also tell you all about the Taino Indians and their historic links to the area.

Watch the natural beauty of Jamaica float, and then zip, by as the streams and rivers of Jamaica in turns glide you downstream before turning into an exciting rapid adventure. The Jungle River Tubing Safari is a unique way to see the island, and includes a rum punch to steady your nerves too.

A popular tour from Montego Bay is the Jeep Safari Adventure Tour. Learn about the history and culture of Jamaica and all about its wildlife from the comfort of your zebra striped jeep. Guides lead you through forests and along rivers and streams, past hidden waterfalls and giving short guided nature walks too.
