Doing what: Dunns River Falls and Ocho Rios Shopping Tour

very straineous for senior citizens. recommended fro younger people.

The driver was the best part. I think his name was Johnson. Horse riding was fun and so were the falls, I like a lot of adventure and the falls are great to see once, and unless I have kids or something I will not be going back. "Already did it". Horse riding was good, but we only spent about 10 minutes on the beach and 2 in the water. But the entire horse trip was about 30 minutes. I would recommend this tour. It was a good time. The driver even took us by some shopping when we were done. Had me some Jamaican Burger King

Dunn's River Falls is beautiful and climbing it was mildly challenging, but very fun and an experience I will always remember and would repeat if I come back to Jamaica. The horseback riding portion was okay, but not as enjoyable as the falls. You might try the falls alone or with another activity.

All 3 stars are for Dunn's Water fall.. The Bob Marley Nine mile was a sheer waste of time.the people at nine mile ask for money at every step for candles, tips, drinks etc.Our tour guide Danny was a very nice guy and gave us good advice about shopping and took us to a nice shop and we were able to save $

Pretty fun tour, the shopping portion is a little weak, they take you to a small shopping strip where you only spend about 45minutes and the prices of everything are really high because its a tourist attraction area, they also take you to the craft market for about 30min that is not too far from the strip mall, also a tourist hot spot. Afterwards they take you to a buffet resturant in this waterfall garden that costs $16 USD per person and is not worth it. I didn't eat at the resturant but still had to pay $1 just to sit in the garden (LAME). This is the spot where you change to go to Dunn's River Falls. Viator should outline this information a lot better, but basically you will need your swimwear and water shoes to climb the falls which takes about an hour cause you go very slowly with a guide. Its a lot of fun though. They take you back to your hotel after. For the price its a pretty good deal, the buffet is not worth it though (although i didn't eat there). Bring some snack bars and you'll live :)

The bus transportation and driver were great, but the place we went riding was minimal at best, just a short walk on paved roads to the beach were we dismounted and sat for 20 minutes then had a short 5 min in the water then back to the stables. The horses are severly underfed and looked poorly groomed.
The falls were fantastic and our driver saved us money, but it is impossible to get out of the park without severe harrasment from the vendors who do not take NO. Bring a tip for the quide which you really do not need to go up the falls.

refreshing and wonderful. just an awesome site to see and experience

The Horseback Riding was so much fun. The tour guides are so patient and friendly. The Dunn's River Falls are tough but well worth the effort.

The tour was a great way to get in a little shopping in Ocho Rios and then a visit to Dunns River Falls. The falls are great and the hike up the falls was a lot of fun. It was nice to have the guides as they were fun and helpful.

Doing what: Ocho Rios Dunns River Jeep Safari

The Ocho Rios Dunns River Fall Jeep Safari tour was AWESOME!!! This was the best way to experience the country side of Jamaica. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and "WOW" he really knew how to drive. The FALLS were amazing and brethe taking.

I had a wonderful time. The tour guide was excellent. Bob Marley's burial area was nice, had tears in my eyes. Dunn's River Fall was nice, but they wanted you to pay $40.00 for a DVD(RIP Off). The only I did not like like everyone, think you are suppose to tip them for doing there job.

The Martha Brae rafting was very boring, relaxing but boring. If your stayin in Ochos Rios then you have to go all the way back to Montego Bay (45 min) to float then drive back for Dunns Falls. Dunns Falls is a great experience, but i would see if the hotels have any specials for just going there.

Doing what: Dunns River Falls and Ocho Rios Shopping Tour

The falls was beautiful. The experience and the guides were GREAT. I took 2 young girls ages 7 and 11 and the loved it. Bring your own water camera for sure. I gave a '3' b/c we received the wrong video. It's very rushed to get back on the bus and no time to check the video;hence the video transaction went BAD. I don't have the correct video and was soooo disappointed. It would have been a memorable video b/c the videograher was so interactive and personalized the video for all on the tour by taking footage of you doing different things while climbing up. If at all possible bring your own dvd player to check the video to ensure it is the right group. They don't keep hardcopies so if the video is not right, you would be out of luck. I was fortunate to get a refund after a month. Nonetheless DUNNS River Falls is a must see while visiting Jamaica.

The tour van arrived late, and no one around terminal seemed to have a clue about these guys. Finally one lady called and got them on their way. The shopping trip is a joke, they take you to some shops owned by friends and a flea market. (bad idea) The falls are beautiful and fun, but know you are going to get very wet. My advice is to book through the cruise line and stay away from this particular excursion.

Thoroughly enjoyed this day trip to Dunn's River Falls. Our driver was entertaining and ensured we had the best service at the falls. Our guides up the falls were both very attentive and you felt safe at all times.
